This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banking experts review, simplify corporate lending process. James S. Sagner and Herbert Jacobs advise on corporate lending to help bankers, lenders and corporate finance managers avoid future credit problems in Handbook of Corporate Lending: A Guide for Bankers and Financial Managers. The authors argue for a fresh approach to improving bank lending to corporations. Historically, most banks spend their efforts in evaluating loan proposals from businesses before approving or denying credit. The authors argue persuasively and with examples that lending is a two-step process: the analysis of the company in the context of its industry and its competitors; and then a loan agreement that identifies the credit risks. The book demonstrates through the use of case studies how to limit those risks to the lenders and just as importantly, to the company. Sagner and Jacobs, former senior bankers and consultants and educators to the banking industry, systematically review the process of corporate credit decision-making. Too few banks are now providing adequate formal credit-training. This leaves bankers without the proper guidance to review credit requests and create precautions for corporate borrowers and lenders. Sagner and Jacobs show readers how such factors influence credit, funding, pricing decisions and proper structuring of loans. The book covers such topics as trends in commercial loan activity, the credit loan agreement, the banker's responsibilities, risk management measurement and the credit process. Eight cases in the book highlight a variety of credit issues. "The book is written from the perspective of the banker or other lender who makes these important decisions," said Sagner. "But business people, particularly global financial managers who must secure credit and maintain excellent relations with their lenders, need to understand this important information." Sagner and Jacobs help readers navigate the issues confronting financial and banking managers. The book aims to explain the financial processes lenders use to make decisions, and to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of credit measurements so that business and financial managers are better prepared to arrange credit facilities.

Download or read book The Economics of Bankruptcy Reform written by Philippe Aghion and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a new bankruptcy procedure. Initially, a firm's debts are cancelled, and cash and non-cash bids are solicited for the 'new" (all-equity) firm. Former claimants are given shares, or options to buy shares, in the new firm on the basis of absolute priority. Options are exercised once the bids are in. Finally, a shareholder vote is taken to select one of the bids. In essence, our procedure is a variant on the U.S. Chapter 7, in which non-cash bids are possible; this allows for reorganization. We believe our scheme is superior to Chapter 11 since it is simpler, quicker, market-based, avoids conflicts, and places appropriate discipline on management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker.

Download or read book Consumer Knowledge and Financial Decisions written by Douglas J. Lamdin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-01-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an increasing recognition that financial knowledge (i.e., literacy) is lacking across the population. Moreover, there is recognition that this lack of knowledge poses real problems as credit, mortgages, health insurance, retirement benefits, and savings and investment decisions become increasingly complex. Financial Decisions Across the Lifespan brings together the work of scholars from various disciplines (family and consumer sciences, economics, law, finance, sociology, and public policy) to provide a broad range of perspectives on financial knowledge, financial decisions, and policies. For consistency across the volume each chapter follows a similar format: (1) what individuals know or need to know (2) how what they know or need to know affects financial decisions and outcomes (3) ways in which policies or programs or financial innovations can enhance their knowledge, or decisions, or outcomes. Contributors will provide both new and existing research to create a valuable picture of the state of financial literacy and how it can be improved.

Download or read book Global Waves of Debt written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.
