Digital Healthcare Platforms for Healthcare Improvement

Digital healthcare platforms are online services that provide access to health information, diagnosis, treatment, and care delivery. They can include websites, apps, telemedicine, wearable devices, and electronic health records. Digital healthcare platforms have the potential to improve national healthcare by enhancing the efficiency, quality, accessibility, and affordability of health services.

They also need to be evaluated and monitored for their effectiveness and impact on national healthcare.

Indian Rupee Goes Global

The Indian rupee (INR) is gaining momentum as an international currency, as more countries are opting to trade in INR instead of the US dollar. This is a significant development for India's economy, as it reduces the dependency on foreign exchange reserves, lowers transaction costs, and boosts exports. Trading in INR is also in line with India's vision of becoming a self-reliant and resilient economy. As more countries join the bandwagon of trading in INR, India can expect to reap more benefits and advantages from its international trade relations.

Silicon Valley Bank: How Does a Bank Collapse in 48 Hours?

Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) was a well-capitalized institution seeking to raise some funds. Within 48 hours, a panic induced by the very venture capital community that SVB had served and nurtured ended the bank’s 40-year run. While relatively unknown outside of Silicon Valley, SVB was among the top 20 American commercial banks, with US$209 billion in total assets at the end of last year. Faced with higher interest rates, loss of IPOs, and a funding drought, SVB’s clients began pulling money out of the bank. Lenders somewhat similar to SVB are in an unfortunate situation. A failure to protect deposits over $250,000 could cause a loss of faith in other mid-sized banks. Analysts said SVB’s collapse is unlikely to set off the kind of domino effect that gripped the banking industry during the financial crisis.

Is India Heading Towards a Recession?
