A unit trust is an investment vehicle which issues securities called trust units. Each unit represents participation in a large pool of capital that is invested in a group of investment vehicles by professional managers. Like a common shareholder, each unit holder receives a transferable, marketable certificate, representing the number of units owned and is entitled to one vote per unit owned. Unlike a common shareholder, however, ownership of a unit trust does not provide the safeguard of limited liability and theoretically a unit holder could be held liable for certain debts incurred by the trust itself.... All income received by the trust, aside from administrative expenses and fees of the advisors and managers, flows directly to unit holders as dividends. 2, record 1, English, - unit%20trust

La fiducie d'investissement à participation unitaire est un fonds de placement qui émet des titres, appelés unités de fiducie, représentant une participation dans un important fonds commun de capitaux qui sont investis dans un ensemble de moyens de placement par des gestionnaires professionnels. Comme l'actionnaire ordinaire, le porteur d'unité reçoit un certificat négociable et transférable représentant le nombre d'unités détenues et a droit à un vote par unité. La propriété d'une unité de fiducie ne donne toutefois pas la sécurité de la responsabilité limitée et, à la différence de l'actionnaire ordinaire, un détenteur d'unités pourrait théoriquement être tenu responsable de certaines dettes contractées par le fonds. ... Tous les revenus que le fonds reçoit, mis à part les frais d'administration et la rémunération des conseillers et du gestionnaire, sont distribués directement aux détenteurs d'unités sous forme de dividendes. 2, record 1, French, - fiducie%20d%27investissement%20%C3%A0%20participation%20unitaire

CSU 89 was created as the result of the fusion of CSU 8 and CSU 9. The two groups have different clients and still hold their own separate meetings. Part of Architectural and Engineering Services/Property and Facilities Management, Real Property Services. "On April 1, 1996, RPS formally implemented a new organizational model based on Client Service Units(CSUs) and Centres of Expertise(COEs). The CSUs are a dedicated organizational unit through which services are provided to a singular client or a portfolio of clients. The CSUs are supported by COEs which act as stewards of skills and knowledge in RPS business lines and program management. COEs manage a resource pool that may dedicate people on a full time basis to a particular CSU or provide services from ’home base’ to a number of CSUs. The CSUs are revenue centres and the COEs are cost centres. The NCA plays a national role and as such, the CSUs and COEs in the NCA are called National Client Service Units(NSCUs) and National Centres of Expertise(NCOEs). In addition to the provision of operational services to the NCA, the NCOEs formulate policy, establish national product standards, develop new/enhanced products and services for delivery to the CSUs and oversee their implementation. The NCOEs provide functional direction to Regional COEs in support of Real Property Services nationally. The NCSUs provide a focal point for national clients and furnish functional guidance to Regional CSUs. " 1, record 3, English, - Client%20Service%20Unit%2089

«En avril 1996, les SI ont officiellement adopté un nouveau modèle organisationnel fondé sur des unités de service à la clientèle (USC) et des centres d'expertise (CE). Les USC sont des unités organisationnelles qui fournissent des services à un client particulier ou à un portefeuille de clients. Les USC sont appuyées par des CE, qui leur fournissent les connaissances et les compétences nécessaires dans les différents secteurs d'activités des SI ainsi qu'en gestion des programmes. Les CE administrent une réserve de ressources et peuvent affecter du personnel à temps plein dans une USC donnée ou fournir des services à partir de l'administration centrale à un certain nombre d'USC. Les USC sont des centres de recettes et les CE, des centres de coûts. Le SCN jouant un rôle à l'échelle nationale, les USC et les CE du SCN sont appelés unités de service à la clientèle nationale (USCN)et centres d'expertise nationaux (CEN). En plus de fournir des services opérationnels au SCN, les CEN formulent des politiques, établissent des normes nationales relatives aux produits, élaborent des produits et des services nouveaux ou améliorés à l'intention des USC et en supervisent la mise en œuvre. Les CEN fournissent une orientation fonctionnelle aux CE régionaux afin d'appuyer les activités des Services immobiliers à l'échelle nationale.

The susceptible-infected-susceptible(SIS) model of Weiss and Dishon is one of the simplest models of endemic infections. The model describes the evolution of an infection in a fixed population, with no restriction on the possibility of reinfection of a previously infected and now recovered individual. This is in contrast to the venerable susceptible-infection-recovered(SIR) model, where reinfection is not permitted. Both models exhibit a threshold value of the infectivity, below which the infection immediately dies out. Below the threshold, where only a tiny fraction of the population is impacted, the two models have essentially equivalent statistical properties. Above the threshold, in the SIR model, the infection is self-limiting, since in a fixed population the number of potential new victims, the susceptible pool, is monotonically decreasing in size. The SIS model, on the other hand, describes an endemic infection which can(above the threshold) persist indefinitely, at least at the deterministic level. Thus, the statistics of infection size in the two models above the threshold are very different. 1, record 9, English, - susceptible%2Dinfected%2Dsusceptible%20model

L'utilisation de zones de sélection a permis à la fonction publique d'attirer un bassin suffisant de candidates et de candidats qualifiés tout en veillant à limiter le nombre de demandes d'emploi à un degré acceptable et à assurer des délais raisonnables de recrutement. Une zone «nationale» de sélection supprime ces limites géographiques et permet aux candidats et aux candidates de partout au pays, ainsi qu'aux citoyennes et citoyens canadiens vivant à l'étranger, de présenter leur candidature pour une possibilité d'emploi donnée. 2, record 11, French, - zone%20nationale%20de%20s%C3%A9lection

Fall of 1995. Co-sponsored by REDO(Regional Economic Diversification Opportunities) and the MITEL Corporation, the Human Resources Forum brought together approximately 50 representatives of departmental career centres whose responsibility it was to advise public servants facing employment with an equal number of private sector human resources officers and managers. Held at MITEL, the session provided an opportunity to exchange information on private sector employment opportunities and practices as well as alerting employers to the nature and extent of the pool of potential employees arising from the government downsizing exercise. 1, record 13, English, - Human%20Resources%20Forum

The development of a liquid corporate bond market in Europe has also been boosted by a number of secondary factors. For example, although average yields on European government bond have risen over the last few months, they still remain close to historically low levels... This has forced investors to look elsewhere for the returns to which they are accustomed. As a result, the pool of money available for investment in credit or spread product has been growing... In addition, European governments are borrowing less then before as the consequence of their having managed to stick to the strict budget deficit criterion... This has vacated space for the higher rated European companies to fill. 2, record 15, English, - spread%20product

A unit trust is an investment vehicle which issues securities called trust units. Each unit represents participation in a large pool of capital that is invested in a group of investment vehicles by professional managers. Like a common shareholder, each unit holder receives a transferable, marketable certificate, representing the number of units owned and is entitled to one vote per unit owned. Unlike a common shareholder, however, ownership of a unit trust does not provide the safeguard of limited liability and theoretically a unit holder could be held liable for certain debts incurred by the trust itself. 2, record 18, English, - trust%20unit
