Definition of Social Entrepreneurs, Could it be a social visionary business entity? Is not merely pursuing profit businesses? Or conversely, only yayasankah which can move in efforts to deal with social problems?

Similar questions have often sprung up but missed completely. Social entrepreneurs become new creatures that need dilihat.Di between corporations and foundations are social entrepreneurs. Actually, social entrepreneurs (social enterprise) has appeared in the college text books in the 1960s to the 1970s. Only later in the 1980s to the 1990s social entrepreneurship to spread and grow. In the UK, one of the driving time was Bill Drayton, who founded Ashoka social entrepreneurs named.

social entrepreneurship as a business entity whose primary purpose is social. The advantage gained from the effort invested back in order to achieve social goals or for social purposes. Social entrepreneurship is more than just motivated by a desire to maximize profits for shareholders or owners, “said Campaign Manager Entrepreneurial Social and Cultural Affairs Office of the Ministry of the Third Sector Tamsyn Roberts.

Definition of Social Entrepreneurs
With a definition like that, in fact in Indonesia there were already social entrepreneurs, like Bina Swadaya. These institutions seek profits through multiple business units, but the profit is reinvested to help small communities and farmers.

There are also several institutions by asking a variety of projects to companies to work on a number of projects that are social, such as education and environmental improvement. These institutions take advantage of the projects underway, but the advantage was to be reinvested for social purposes.

There is also a foundation or non-governmental organizations, which also operates business units. The advantage gained from the effort used for their social activities. They were helped by the existence of these business units because they make does not depend entirely on funding.

But unlike Indonesia, the UK social entrepreneurship institutions that received government recognition. In addition to corporations and foundations, the British Government acknowledged the existence of social entrepreneurship. In fact, recognition is embodied in the form of existence of the Ministry of the Third Sector in which the care of social entrepreneurship. Mention of third sector to demonstrate the existence of institutions that are in between the government and the private sector.

Recognition was also manifested in the form of flushing the contested funds a variety of social entrepreneurship through various projects proposed by the institutions of social entrepreneurship. Although funds are not just purely from the government, the government has the right to check the beneficiary’s benefits. This is to ensure the funds are not misused by the recipient.

Social entrepreneur who gets funds and who is certainly doing a project must benefit the community, such as job creation, reducing the number of residents who have no home, and environmental improvement. The government will then audit the funds were disbursed. Government benefit checks received by the community that became the subject of the projects.

“Our main funding comes from the Millennium Awards Trust, an inheritance worth 100 million pounds from the Millennium Commission,” said Director of Development Unltd Zulfiqar Ahmed, an institution of social entrepreneurs who work on various projects of the fund.

Recognition of the existence of social entrepreneurship by the British government carried out by the fact that institutions are able to meet the needs of the community by answering the challenges of social and environmental problems. Social entrepreneurship is also believed to encourage the things that are ethical in business, improving public services, and in fact social entrepreneurs-entrepreneurs creating new entrepreneurs to solve community problems.

There the second quarter, which began limited reinforcement JCI could make a trend inversely dollars from the previous period. Why so? There are several reasons that can be considered regarding this possibility.

The first factor is the trend of the U.S. equity markets that began boost goes up to the level of stock index reached before the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. If this trend continues, then the appeal of assets look more attractive countries for investors.

Indeed the U.S. stock charts are very dependent on trends in the labor sector. The unemployment rate is increasingly eroded a sign that this trend will not show the changes.

The situation looks different in the euro area financial sector. Psychological pressure from the Greek crisis still haunt the stock markets of Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain. The majority of investors still seemed worried about the systemic effects of Greece’s debt problems. But these fears can be mitigated by reduced market anxiety over Europe’s sovereign risk. So hot money could be rolled back to the advanced state assets in the next three months.

The second factor that could end the rupiah rally is the expectation of the interest rate differential (the difference between interest margin). If market participants began to expect the rise in U.S. interest rates, the difference is the difference in interest rates will hit Indonesia emerging market assets, primarily equity and bond markets. Expectations of market participants to the cycle of U.S. interest rate rise in the second quarter are expected to rise, referring to the U.S. economic data is improving. The accumulation of potentially positive reports raised confidence of foreign investors on the performance of the dollar compared to other currencies.

Referring to the technical analysis GBP / USD at the Daily and Weekly charts, can be seen that the RSI and Stochastic are in oversold area. At the same time, in the graph Daily MACD bullish divergence in formation. This fact should change the bias correction bullish U.S. dollar against the rupiah, at least capable of targeting an area 9200 in the near future. With notes, required penetration is consistently above the area 9090-9110 for the momentum correction trigger further weakening rupiah.

In this phase, a key support level of 9000 to withhold any further appreciation of the rupiah. When the rupiah through the area below 9,000, will lead to strengthening of the rupiah to the Fibonacci target of 79 percent in the 8980 area.

Based on technical and fundamental analysis, should be the main trend of rupiah is still on track for long-term appreciation. Short-term projections indicate that the Euro is still likely to weaken corrected before continuing reinforcement.

Potential correction amount in the second quarter, 2010 the new prime quarter ended, presents some important notes in the financial sector of Indonesia. Dramatic movement Composite Stock Price Index (CSPI) also transmitted to the excellent performance of two investment instruments.

Rupiah currency and bond markets develop into champions among other assets transacted variants investors. Despite the achievements both at the beginning of the quarter is quite impressive, it is not likely things will turn around in the next period.

Performance of emerging market assets, including bonds, looks impressive with the best performance record of 5.1 percent. Instruments that give high yields such as SUN, managed to push the currency appreciation to 3.7 percent this year. So that the rupiah could enter the ranks of the three major currencies of the 10 best performing Asian currencies most actively traded.

Amid the euphoria of the market, the star of Indonesia’s financial sector in the first quarter is still held by JCI. Index would not stop printing new record high every week. This phenomenon occurs when foreign capital flows to Indonesia stock market can not be unstoppable.

Based on data from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) in March, foreign investors buying shares to net up to Rp 4.9 trillion, after selling a property worth a total of Rp 1.6 trillion in February. JCI rate increases so far this year (Year-To-Date Return) reached 13.1 percent. But also to make Indonesia as a leader of Asian stocks beat Thailand (10.2 percent YTD Return) and Malaysia (8.9 percent YTD Return).

If we look, there is an interesting correlation between investment grade and sovereign debt with stock market performance. The atmosphere in the capital markets outside the United States (U.S.) is very flat which is the main trigger of hot money flows into emerging market assets Indonesia. However, foreign funding is short-term nature of this can be stopped at any time. Outside investors may leave the market at any time, being absorbed by the pace of economic recovery in the U.S. and Europe.
