Banque Cantonale Vaudoise
Banque Cantonale Vaudoise (BCV) is the cantonal bank of the Swiss Canton of Vaud. Headquartered in Lausanne, it is Vaud's biggest bank by balance sheet. BCV is a universal bank providing retail banking, corporate banking, wealth management, and trading services. Activities of the BCV outside the canton of Vaud Unlike most Swiss cantonal banks, which operate primarily in the economic area of their home canton, BCV's field of activity extends far beyond their cantonal and national borders. In the 1990s, several cantonal banks attempted to increase growth outside of their local and cantonal state borders. The expansion strategy of the BCV during this period with Greece and Hong Kong resulted in billions of dollars in losses. In the past, the Swiss taxpayer regularly paid for the damage incurred - even though a cantonal bank, as in the case of the BCV, never had a state guarantee. In a BCV press release, published in 2011, it was stated that an office was to be opened in Zurich ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bovine Coronavirus
Bovine coronavirus (BCV or BCoV) is a coronavirus which is a member of the species ''Betacoronavirus 1''. The infecting virus is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus which enters its host cell by binding to the N-acetyl-9-O-acetylneuraminic acid recepter. Infection causes calf enteritis and contributes to the enzootic pneumonia complex in calves. It can also cause winter dysentery in adult cattle. It can infect both domestic and wild ruminants and has a worldwide distribution. Transmission is horizontal, via oro-fecal or respiratory routes. Like other coronaviruses from genus ''Betacoronavirus,'' subgenus ''Embecovirus'', it has a surface protein called hemagglutinin esterase (HE) in addition to the four structural proteins shared by all coronaviruses ( spike, membrane, nucleocapsid, and envelope proteins). Virology BCoV has 95% similarity with human coronavirus OC43 and 93% to porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus. According to a 2006 study, ...
