	Rogue Trader (Warhammer 40,000) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rogue Trader is the common name of the first edition of Warhammer 40,000 miniature wargame by Games Workshop.
		The game play of Rogue Trader differs from its modern-day version, mostly due to the fact that it was heavily role-play-oriented, with great detail placed on weaponry and vehicles and the inclusion of a third player in battles, the Games Master, a role not too different from the Dungeon Master of Dungeons and Dragons.
		The Rogue Trader game contained some races that were later removed from the storyline, such as Squats, Zoats and Jokaero.

		Traders’ learning experiences, such as big gains and losses, are important — particularly when they occur early in a career.
		Traders may, for example, set their own agendas and seek or avoid risks accordingly.
		If the problem is to be controlled, managers need continually to monitor traders’ learning, their experiences of loss and gain — and the inferences drawn from them — and patterns of risk-seeking and risk-averse behaviour.

	[ DVD.nl ] - Recensies
		Rogue Trader uit 1998 is een film van regisseur James Dearden die gebaseerd is op het waar gebeurde verhaal van handelaar Nick Leeson.
		Rogue Trader is dan ook een film die slechts een select publiek zal kunnen boeien, terwijl de overigen al lang in slaap zullen zijn gesukkeld.
		Aangezien Rogue Trader niet zou profiteren van een apart bas-kanaal en ook het gebruik van een stereo achter-kanaal niet veel toe zou voegen, voldoet het gebruikte Dolby Surround-geluid prima (in plaats van Dolby Digital 5.1).

	Rogue Trader May Foster Opportunities
		In a world of increasingly complex trading vehicles and demanding regulators, compensation, stature and headcounts within departments that oversee trading activity are already on the upswing.
		The latest events will likely accelerate the trend, even though SocGen's rogue trader constructed his phony futures positions from the simplest of instruments, says David Martin, Boston regional director at worldwide recruiting firm Michael Page International.
		In the past decade, Martin has seen back- and middle office activities transformed from a "support function, to a policing and a control function." The trend, which began soon after the 1995 Barings Bank collapse sparked by a rogue trader's activities, has accelerated in the last five years.

		I had a good laugh at last week's blog by my colleague Jason Toynbee – especially his recommendation that young city traders might be issued with ASBOs in order to stop them causing any further economic damage.
		Now, given the recently exposed activities of Jerome Kerviel – the French junior trader whose fraudulent transactions appear to have cost his employer Societe Generale around £4 billion – some might suggest even stronger measures are necessary.
		In fact, it is financial institutions themselves, in slavish adherence to market principles, that create the conditions under which 'rogue' trading can occur – and so can hardly wash their hands of any responsibility when frauds arise.
