Unsecured Loans and Alternatives

By admin on August 17th, 2010

Unsecured loans can be very difficult to get. There are many factors a bank is going to consider that might make it impossible for you to achieve a positive response about unsecured loans.

Unsecured loans are loans for a business where the company doesn’t have to put up any collateral for the loan. These unsecured loans are common for very successful businesses that show a lot of revenue and assets. It is very difficult for most people who want an unsecured loan for a business to get a good response from a bank if they don’t meet many different stipulations of unsecured loans.

The unsecured loans stipulations usually required from a bank when you are asking for unsecured loans usually require good credit. You must have a high credit score for some of the unsecured loans. The company must have a proven track record of high revenues and success for the past year or two for some of the unsecured loans. The company must show more assets than liabilities and not be in the negative on the books in any way to receive most unsecured loans.

There are alternatives to unsecured loans if lenders are not seeing the big picture that you do. The best alternative to a lender giving you money is through a friend or a family member. If you have a friend or a family member who has the money to help you with the money you need then you won’t have to worry about getting turned away from the banks. A friend or family member also won’t charge you large interest rates like a bank will on unsecured loans.

Another alternative to unsecured loans is by finding government grants for your small business. There is millions of dollars that goes unclaimed every year and if you can get a grant you won’t even have to repay the money but show the government that you spent it on your business. This is an excellent idea for any type of small business because you don’t have to pay all grants back like unsecured loans. Grants are free money the government sets aside for small businesses as a way to stimulate the local economy. Most small business owners never consider business grants before they ask a lender for unsecured loans.

CIT Files Bankruptcy

By admin on November 2nd, 2009

CIT Group Inc., a 101-year-old commercial lender, filed for bankruptcy to cut $10 billion in debt after the credit crunch dried up its funding and a U.S. bailout and debt exchange offer failed.

CIT listed $71 billion in assets and $64.9 billion in debt in a Chapter 11 filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan. The U.S. Treasury Department said the government probably won’t recover much, if any, of the $2.3 billion in taxpayer money that went to CIT.

The bankruptcy “will allow CIT to continue to provide funding to our small business and middle-market customers,” said Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey Peek in a statement.

CIT, which filed the fifth-largest bankruptcy by assets, said it plans to exit quickly due to support from bondholders, who voted in favor of a so-called prepackaged plan. None of CIT’s operating subsidiaries, including Utah-based CIT Bank, were included in the filing, and operations will proceed as normal, CIT said in a statement.

By admin on August 7th, 2009

The dollar advanced against the currencies of six major U.S. trading partners as a government report showed employers eliminated fewer jobs in July than economists forecast.

The yen dropped against all of its major counterparts as the payroll report indicated a recovery in the world’s largest economy, encouraging Japanese investors to buy higher-yielding assets overseas.

The dollar climbed 0.4 percent to $1.4283 per euro at 9:45 a.m. in New York, from $1.4345 yesterday. The U.S. currency gained 1.4 percent to 96.78 yen from 95.46. The euro advanced 1.3 percent to 138.25 yen from 136.94.

GM Files Bankruptcy

By admin on June 1st, 2009

General Motors Corp., the world’s largest carmaker until its 77-year reign ended last year, filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. with a plan to create a 21st-century company that can compete in world markets.

GM reported $82.29 billion in assets and $172.81 billion in debt. The U.S. government will bankroll the transformation of the 100-year-old automaker, a victim of tumbling sales and higher gas prices. The U.S. plans to convert much of its $50 billion of loans to a 60 percent stake in the new entity, administration officials said. Today’s filing coincides with a deadline for GM to convince a government auto task force that it could reorganize out of court through debt and cost cutting.

Measuring Company’s Profitability

By admin on October 4th, 2008

The ROE is useful for comparing the profitability of a company to that of other firms in the same industry. ROE measures a company’s profitability by comparing its net income to shareholders equity (book value). ROE is a speed limit on selffunded growth (company’s profit). That is, a company cant grow earnings faster
than its ROE without raising cash by borrowing or selling more shares. For instance, a 15% ROE means that the company cant grow earnings faster than 15% annually by relying only on profit to fuel growth.

Higher ROE is usually better. ROE, then, becomes a measure not only shows return of the company is generating, but also of how successfully management has been in running the corporation. Good ROE ratio depends on the company’s industry. When looking for stocks, we want to find companies that show an
increasing ROE over time. It’s a sign to us that management is getting better and better at deciding what to do with its money. The higher the number, the better management has allocated capital.

It turns out that a company cannot grow earnings faster than its ROE without raising additional cash. That is, a firm with a 15 percent ROE cannot grow earnings faster than 15 percent annually without borrowing funds or selling more shares. So ROE is a speed limit on a firm’s growth rate. Many specify 15 percent
as their minimum acceptable ROE when evaluating investment candidates.

You also must pay attention on the company’s debt when calculating ROE. Recall that shareholder’s equity is assets less liabilities. High liabilities means low equity. The higher-debt firm will then show the higher return on equity. Consequently, you should take debt levels into account when comparing different firm’s return on equities.
