Winners of the Money Awareness and Inclusion Awards 2024 (the MAIAs) Announced

Published

Singapore, Singapore Jun 3, 2024 (Issuewire.com) – Following deliberations by an international panel of expert judges, the MAIAs are proud to announce the winners, runners-up, and special commendations for this year’s Money Awareness and Inclusion Awards.

Said co-founder Michael Gilmore, “With a record number of entries from 35 different countries this year, it’s clear how important learning about money is becoming to everybody in all corners of the planet. We had winning entries from New Zealand to the UK to the USA, and incredibly strong entries from Spain to Colombia and from Vietnam to Morocco. Poor financial literacy is a truly global problem, and we are finding answers all over the world.”

The number of winners increased from 16 last year to 17 this year, as the judges of the previously problematic “Blockchain Education” category finally found an entry they believed worthy of scoring top points, submitted by Aflatoun International, a global NGO based in the Netherlands.

There was once again a tie in the book category, and once again between books from the UK and Australia, with London-based financial therapist Vicky Reynal’s “Money on Your Mind” sharing the spoils with Australia’s Ana Kresina’s “Kids Ain’t Cheap“. The judges were also very pleased to award “Wellness Financiero” by Jordi Martinez-Llorente, the first non-English language book the MAIAs has judged, a special commendation.

Other notable winners include the Financial Times’s Financial Literacy and Inclusion Campaign, FT FLIC, in the hotly-contested “Non-profit for school-age” category, for its work at the City of London Academy, and MyBnk for “The Money House Glasgow”.

The importance of financial literacy and inclusion to emerging economies also shone through as South East Asia boasted three winners, Braden Cobb from Singapore along with Finco and MADCash from Malaysia, the latter being the only project this year to win two categories. Veronica Frisancho from Peru also won the best academic paper category with her incredibly powerful work looking at how teaching about money in school can improve the financial literacy of parents!

Other stand-out winners include:

  • “It’s Not About the Money” podcast, by Jenny Rolfe-Wallace in Australia was the strongest “financial influencer” entry
  • Project Ikuna in New Zealand was the best non-profit project for adults
  • The for-profit categories were won by Squirrel Education from the United Arab Emirates, Wealthbrite by Carla Hoppe from the UK, and Gimi from the Netherlands

MAIA co-founder Trudi Harris, who has held senior roles in marketing communications for over twenty years, said While the standard of entry continues to improve and impress the judges, what is also really encouraging is the range of people entering, from individual teachers developing ways to teach their classes about money, to household names like the Financial Times. At the MAIAs, we have always said that if we are to make money better, everyone needs to be invited, and that is what we are seeing.”The MAIAs judges congratulate all awardees for their hard work, persistence, innovation, and commitment to changing the world.

QuickBooks File Repair: Essential Steps to Restore and Protect Your Financial Data

Published

on

Brandon, MB, 22nd November 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, QuickBooks file repair is often necessary when a QuickBooks company file becomes corrupted or damaged. This can happen due to various reasons, such as system crashes, large file sizes, network issues, or power outages. Corrupted files can lead to issues like missing data, error messages, or QuickBooks freezing unexpectedly, so it’s essential to address these problems quickly to maintain data integrity.

As a QuickBooks company file grows, it can become more prone to corruption and performance issues, especially in older versions of QuickBooks that may not handle large files as effectively.

If multiple users are working on the same file over a network, disruptions in network connectivity can lead to file corruption. System crashes, power outages, or abrupt QuickBooks closures can cause file damage, as data may not be saved or closed correctly. 

The QuickBooks File Doctor is a free tool from Intuit that scans and repairs corrupted QuickBooks files. It addresses common issues and can resolve error messages related to data corruption, network issues, and Windows permissions.

The Rebuild Data utility within QuickBooks Desktop can fix minor data issues. This tool scans the file for errors and attempts to repair them automatically. To access it, go to “File” > “Utilities” > “Rebuild Data.”

If file size is the cause of corruption, condensing the data may help. The Condense Data utility reduces file size by summarizing older transactions, which can make the file more manageable and reduce the risk of future corruption.

If the file is significantly damaged, restoring from the most recent backup can often be the quickest solution. QuickBooks allows users to create regular backups, so if you’ve been backing up your data, you may be able to restore it without losing much information.

For severe file corruption, or when standard tools fail, contacting a QuickBooks file repair specialist may be necessary. Professional services can often repair damaged files without data loss, restoring the integrity of financial records.

QuickBooks file repair is crucial to prevent data loss and keep financial records accurate. Regularly backing up data, monitoring file size, and maintaining a stable network connection can reduce the risk of file corruption, ensuring smoother, uninterrupted use of QuickBooks.

QuickBooks SuperCondense reduces file size more drastically than standard condensing, resulting in faster load times and smoother navigation

Published

on

Brandon, MB, 22nd November 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, QuickBooks SuperCondense is a specialized process used to significantly reduce the size of large QuickBooks company files, helping improve software speed and stability. Over time, QuickBooks files can become sluggish as more transactions are recorded, leading to delays, errors, or even corruption issues. A SuperCondense, which goes beyond the built-in “Condense Data” utility, can help resolve these issues by reducing file size by up to 80%.

Large file sizes can cause QuickBooks to slow down, affecting user productivity and increasing the chance of crashes. SuperCondense reduces file size more drastically than standard condensing, resulting in faster load times and smoother navigation.

Smaller files are less prone to corruption, which can occur when QuickBooks attempts to handle oversized files. SuperCondense helps protect data integrity, reducing the need for frequent repairs or data recovery.

Moving large QuickBooks files to QuickBooks Online can be challenging due to file size limits. SuperCondensing your file before migration ensures it meets size requirements, allowing for a seamless transition to the cloud.

Smaller files are easier to back up and store, reducing storage costs and simplifying data management processes.

During SuperCondense, older or inactive transactions are summarized, and unused items (like vendors or customers) are removed or archived. Unlike the regular condense process, which may only summarize old transactions, SuperCondense minimizes every aspect of the file, providing a more compact and efficient end result.

QuickBooks users can use professional services for a SuperCondense process, as it’s not included in the standard QuickBooks software. These services ensure a smooth reduction process while preserving essential data, helping businesses maximize QuickBooks performance without losing historical information.

SuperCondense is an effective way for businesses to optimize their QuickBooks files for faster, more reliable performance. By reducing file size significantly, businesses can enjoy a smoother QuickBooks experience, better data protection, and simpler cloud migration, making SuperCondense a valuable option for those dealing with large, sluggish files.
