2009-03-18T09:51:00.001-07:00

What if one fine day, a client of yours sues you a good sum, accusing you of professional negligence? What if your patients cry medical malpractice by you? How good are you prepared for such situations? Well, if you are not quite prepared for such unexpected situations- wouldn’t you want yourself to be prepared for such situations? Professional liability insurance is your bet in this endeavour!

You might be the best in your profession or may be an epitome of prudence when it comes to doing your job! But, to err is human and the ‘err’ here doesn’t just mean an error on your part! It even includes misunderstandings and of course, slightest of negligence.

What is professional liability insurance?
Professional liability insurance is a protection cover to professional practitioners such as lawyers, doctors, consultants, architects, businessmen etc from possible financial claims made by their clients or customers or patients on account of error or negligence committed while performing the duty. Professional liability insurance is also known as professional indemnity insurance.

The coverage has its primary focus on error or omission of the services or products sold/offered; performance failure on a professional front; and the resultant financial loss to the client. Further, the insurance provides an additional coverage for breach of intellectual property or breach of confidentiality/ warranty, personal injury, violation of terms like exceeding the cost of contract and so on.
In the business domain, the negligence claims are encountered quite often. The services offered, for example, particular software can be relegated by the client as a product of low quality and you may be held responsible. In this and such similar cases, professional liability insurance can come to your great help! Why just businessmen? Even doctors are susceptible to negligence claims by patients; or for that matter, even architects and lawyers (the law hits them too!) are not left far behind.
Professional liability insurance coverage is a must for every professional practitioner! Make sure you continue it all along, since the policy covers only those incidents that occur when the same is active.

Finance, Credit, Investments - Economical Categories. Modern Interpretation

2009-03-07T15:16:00.001-08:00

Scientific works in the theories of finances and credit, according to the specification of the research object, are characterized to be many-sided and many-leveled.

The definition of totality of the economical relations formed in the process of formation, distribution and usage of finances, as money sources is widely spread. For example, in “the general theory of finances” there are two definitions of finances:

1) “…Finances reflect economical relations, formation of the funds of money sources, in the process of distribution and redistribution of national receipts according to the distribution and usage”. This definition is given relatively to the conditions of Capitalism, when cash-commodity relations gain universal character;

2) “Finances represent the formation of centralized ad decentralized money sources, economical relations relatively with the distribution and usage, which serve for fulfillment of the state functions and obligations and also provision of the conditions of the widened further production”. This definition is brought without showing the environment of its action. We share partly such explanation of finances and think expedient to make some specification.

First, finances overcome the bounds of distribution and redistribution service of the national income, though it is a basic foundation of finances. Also, formation and usage of the depreciation fund which is the part of financial domain, belongs not to the distribution and redistribution of the national income (of newly formed value during a year), but to the distribution of already developed value.

This latest first appears to be a part of value of main industrial funds, later it is moved to the cost price of a ready product (that is to the value too) and after its realization, and it is set the depression fund. Its source is taken into account before hand as a depression kind in the consistence of the ready products cost price.

Second, main goal of finances is much wider then “fulfillment of the state functions and obligations and provision of conditions for the widened further production”. Finances exist on the state level and also on the manufactures and branches’ level too, and in such conditions, when the most part of the manufactures are not state.

V. M. Rodionova has a different position about this subject: “real formation of the financial resources begins on the stage of distribution, when the value is realized and concrete economical forms of the realized value are separated from the consistence of the profit”. V. M. Rodionova makes an accent of finances, as distributing relations, when D. S. Moliakov underlines industrial foundation of finances. Though both of them give quite substantiate discussion of finances, as a system of formation, distribution and usage of the funds of money sources, that comes out of the following definition of the finances: “financial cash relations, which forms in the process of distribution and redistribution of the partial value of the national wealth and total social product, is related with the subjects of the economy and formation and usage of the state cash incomes and savings in the widened further production, in the material stimulation of the workers for satisfaction of the society social and other requests”.

In the manuals of the political economy we meet with the following definitions of finances:

“Finances of the socialistic state represent economical (cash) relations, with the help of which, in the way of planned distribution of the incomes and savings the funds of money sources of the state and socialistic manufactures are formed for guaranteeing the growth of the production, rising the material and cultural level of the people and for satisfying other general society requests”.

“The system of creation and usage of necessary funds of cash resources for guarantying socialistic widened further production represent exactly the finances of the socialistic society. And the totality of economical relations arisen between state, manufactures and organizations, branches, regions and separate citizen according to the movement of cash funds make financial relations”.

As we’ve seen, definitions of finances made by financiers and political economists do not differ greatly.

In every discussed position there are:

1) expression of essence and phenomenon in the definition of finances;

2) the definition of finances, as the system of the creation and usage of funds of cash sources on the level of phenomenon.

3) Distribution of finances as social product and the value of national income, definition of the distributions planned character, main goals of the economy and economical relations, for servicing of which it is used.

If refuse the preposition “socialistic” in the definition of finances, we may say, that it still keeps actuality. We meet with such traditional definitions of finances, without an adjective “socialistic”, in the modern economical literature. We may give such an elucidation: “finances represent cash resources of production and usage, also cash relations appeared in the process of distributing values of formed economical product and national wealth for formation and further production of the cash incomes and savings of the economical subjects and state, rewarding of the workers and satisfaction of the social requests”. in this elucidation of finances like D. S. Moliakov and V. M. Rodionov’s definitions, following the traditional inheritance, we meet with the widening of the financial foundation. They concern “distribution and redistribution of the value of created economical product, also the partial distribution of the value of national wealth”. This latest is very actual, relatively to the process of privatization and the transition to privacy and is periodically used in practice in different countries, for example, Great Britain and France.

“Finances – are cash sources, financial resources, their creation and movement, distribution and redistribution, usage, also economical relations, which are conditioned by intercalculations between the economical subjects, movement of cash sources, money circulation and usage”.

“Finances are the system of economical relations, which are connected with firm creation, distribution and usage of financial resources”.We meet with absolutely innovational definitions of finances in Z. Body and R. Merton’s basis manuals. “Finance – it is the science about how the people lead spending `the deficit cash resources and incomes in the definite period of time. The financial decisions are characterized by the expenses and incomes which are 1) separated in time, and 2) as a rule, it is impossible to take them into account beforehand neither by those who get decisions nor any other person”. “Financial theory consists of numbers of the conceptions… which learns systematically the subjects of distribution of the cash resources relatively to the time factor; it also considers quantitative models, with the help of which the estimation, putting into practice and realization of the alternative variants of every financial decisions take place”.

These basic conceptions and quantitative models are used at every level of getting financial decisions, but in the latest definition of finances, we meet with the following doctrine of the financial foundation: main function of the finances is in the satisfaction of the people’s requests; the subjects of economical activities of any kind (firms, also state organs of every level) are directed towards fulfilling this basic function.

For the goals of our monograph, it is important to compare well-known definitions about finances, credit and investment, to decide how and how much it is possible to integrate the finances, investments and credit into the one total part.

Some researcher thing that credit is the consisting part of finances, if it is discussed from the position of essence and category. The other, more numerous group proves, that an economical category of credit exists parallel to the economical category of finances, by which it underlines impossibility of the credit’s existence in the consistence of finances.

N. K. Kuchukova underlined the independence of the category of credit and notes that it is only its “characteristic feature the turned movement of the value, which is not related with transmission of the loan opportunities together with the owners’ rights”.

N. D. Barkovski replies that functioning of money created an economical basis for apportioning finances and credit as an independent category and gave rise to the credit and financial relations. He noticed the Gnoseological roots of science in money and credit, as the science about finances has business with the research of such economical relations, which lean upon cash flow and credit.

Let’s discuss the most spread definitions of credit. in the modern publications credit appeared to be “luckier”, then finances. For example, we meet with the following definition of credit in the finance-economical dictionary: “credit is the loan in the form of cash and commodity with the conditions of returning, usually, by paying percent. Credit represents a form of movement of the loan capital and expresses economical relations between the creditor and borrower”.

This is the traditional definition of credit. In the earlier dictionary of the economy we read: “credit is the system of economical relations, which is formed while the transmission of cash and material means into the temporal usage, as a rule under the conditions of returning and paying percent”.

In the manual of the political economy published under reduction of V. A. Medvedev the following definition is given: “credit, as an economical category, expresses the created relations between the society, labour collective and workers during formation and usage of the loan funds, under the terms of paying present and returning, during transmission of sources for the temporal usage and accumulation”.Credit is discussed in the following way in the earlier education-methodological manuals of political economy: “credit is the system of money relations, which is created in the process of using and mobilization of temporarily free cash means of the state budget, unions, manufactures, organizations and population. Credit has an objective character. It is used for providing widened further production of the state and other needs. Credit differs from finances by the returning character, while financing of manufactures and organizations by the state is fulfilled without this condition”.

We meet with the following definition if “the course of economy”: “credit is an economical category, which represents relations, while the separate industrial organizations or persons transmit money means to each-other for temporal usage under the conditions of returning. Creation of credit is conditioned by a historical process of fulfilling the economical and money relations, the form of which is the money relation”.

Following scientists give slightly different definitions of credit:

“Credit – is a loan in the form of money or commodity, which is given to the borrower by a creditor under the conditions of returning and paying the percentage rate by the borrower”.

Credit is giving the temporally free money sources or commodity as a debt for the defined terms by the price of fixed percentage. Thus, a credit is the loan in the form of money or commodity. In the process of this loan’s movement, a definite relations are formed between a creditor (the loan is given by a juridical of physical person, who gives certain cash as a debt) and the debtor.

Combining every definition named above, we come to an idea, that credit is giving money capital of commodity as a debt, for certain terms and material provision under the price of firm percentage rate. It expresses definite economical relations between the participants of the process of capital formation. Necessity of the credit relations is conditioned, from one side, by gathering solid quantity of temporarily free money sources, and from the second side, existence of requests of them.

Though, at the same time we must distinguish two resembling concepts: loan and credit. Loan is characterized by:

· Here, the discussion may touch upon transmission of money and also things form one side (loaner) to another (borrower): a)under the owning of the borrower and, at the same time, b) under the conditions of returning same amount or same quantity and quality of the things;

· The loaning of money may bear no interest;

· Any person may take part in it.

With the difference with loan, credit, which is somehow a private occasion of the loan, represents:

· One side (loaner) gives to the second one (borrower) only money, and _ for temporal usage;

· It may not bear no interest (if the assignment doesn’t foresee something);

· In it creditor is not any person, but a credit organization (at the first place, banks).

So, a credit is the bank credit. To our mind, it is not correct to use “credit” and “loan” as the synonyms.

Banking crediting is the union of relations between bank (as a creditor) and its borrower. These relations touch upon:

a) Giving a certain amount of money to the borrower for definite purpose (though, we meet with the so-called free credits, aims and objects of crediting are not appointed in the assignment);

b) Its opportune returning;

c) Getting percentage rate from the borrower for using the sources under his/her disposal.

The essential foundation of the credit essence and its important element is existence of trust between the two sides (in Latin “credo”, from which comes the word “credit”, means “trust”).

From the position of circulation of money forms (in the abstraction, historical process of formation economical relations and social budget and banking systems expressed by them) comparing different definitions of finances and credit, the paradox conclusion appears: credit is the private occasion of finances. And truly, from the position of movement of the money forms, finances represent the process of formation and usage of the funds of cash means. Very often such movements are fulfilled without returning, but sometimes, it is possible to give loans from the budget for the investment projects of other needs. Also, when a manufacture or corporations use their cash funds and we mean the finances of industrial subject, such usage may be realized as inside the manufacture or corporation (there is no subject about returning or not returning of the usage), so gratis under conditions of returning. This latest is called commercial form because of transmitting the sources to others, but even in this occasion, it is the element of financial system of the manufacture and corporation.

From the point of cash means movement, main character of credit is the process of formation and usage of the funds of cash means under the conditions of returning and, as a rule, taking the value-percentage. If gating the credit value doesn’t take place (even in the exceptional occasions), according to the movement form, credit becomes a private occasion of finances, as from the net financial funds (consequently from the state budget) the loans which bear no interests may be used. If gating credit value takes place, by the appearance form, credit is discussed to be financial modification.

From the historical point of view, finances (especially in the sort of the state budget) and credit (beginning with usury, later commercial and banking) were developing differently for considering credit to be the part of finances. Though, from the genetic-historical point of view, previous loaners, before giving loan, needed gathering the permanent capital not returning, that is the net financial foundation. The banks analogously needed concentration of the important own capital for influxing the consumers’ means and for getting higher percentage rate under the conditions of returning. Herewith, exactly on the financial basis, in the sort of financial fund (which later partially becomes loan fund) part of the bank capital appears to be the reservation (insurance) part of the fund, which by nature is financial and not loan. So notwithstanding the essential distinctions between finances and credit form the genetic-historical point of view, credit appears to be formed from finances and represent their modification.

From the essential position of expressing economical relations of finances and credit, we meet with cardinal distinctions between these two categories. Which mostly expressed by the distinction of the movement forms notwithstanding they are returnable or not. Finances express relations in the aspects of distribution and redistribution of social product and part of the national wealth. Credit expresses distribution of the appropriate value only in the section of percentage given for loan, while according to the loan itself, a only a temporal distribution of money sources takes place.

Herewith, there is a lot of common between the finances and credit as from the essential point of view, so according to the form of movement. At the same time, there is a significant distinction between finances and credit as in the essence, so in the form too. According to this, there must be a kind of generally economical category, which will consider finances and credit as a total unity, and in the bounds of this category itself, the separation of the specific essence of the finances and credit would take place.

Funding of the cash means is common to the researched economical categories. It takes place in any separate system of finances and credit, which have been touched upon during the analyses of defining finances and credit. Word combination “funding of the cash sources (fund formation)” reflects and defines exactly essence and form of economical category of more general character, those of finances and credit categories. Though in the in economical texts and practice, it is very uncomfortable to use a termini, which consists of three words. Also, “unloading” with an information hardens greatly its influxing into the circulation even in the conditions of its strict substantiation and thoroughness.

In the discussing context we consider:

1) wide and narrow understanding of economical category of the finances;

2) discussing finances in narrow understanding under general traditional meaning;

3) discussing finances, as funding of the cash means, in wide understanding, which concerns finances – in narrow meaning and credit – in complete meaning.

Termini “funding” and its equivalent “fund formation” are used by us as the purposeful structuring of cash means, which is based on two poles – accumulation of money sources (gathering) and its usage for definite purpose in the way of financing and crediting.

We have established a new termini – “finance-investment sphere” (FIS). Analyses about interrelation of finances and credit made by us give us an opportunity of proving, that in the given termini, the word “financial” is used with the meaning of funding cash sources, its purposeful structuring. In this process we consider at the same time financial, credit and investments’ economical categories.

Let’s sum up middle results of discussing new concept – “finance-investment sphere” and discuss its investment consisting parts.

The concept “investments” was brought into the native economical science from the West. In the Soviet economical science they for a long time used in the place “investments” the termini “capital placement”, which expressed the usage of the industrial factors in the sphere of real industrial activities during realization of capital projects. From one glance, this termini in its concept is identical to the “investments”, consequently it is possible to use them as synonyms. Though the termini “investments” and “investing” have the advantage towards the termini “capital placement” from linguistic and philological points of view, because they are expressed with one word. This is not only economical and comfortable in the process of working with the termini “investment” itself, but also it gives an opportunity of termini formation. More concretely: “investment process”, “investment domain”, “finance-investment sphere” – all these termini are much more acceptable.

Changing native economical termini with foreign ones is purposeful, if it really matters (by keeping parallel usage of the native termini for the inheritance). Though we must not change native economical termini into foreign ones all together, when by ordinal traditional language easy to explain private and narrow concrete processes and elements get their own termini. The “movement” of these termini is approved in the narrow professional bounds, but their “spitting out” into the economical science may turn economical language into the tangled slang.

Let’s discuss termini – “investment” and “capital placement’s” usage in the economical literature.

Investments are placement of funds into the main and circulation capital for the purpose of getting profit. “Investments in material assets – are the placements of funds into the mobile and real estate (land, buildings, furniture and so on). Investments in financial assets are the placements of funds into the securities bank accounts and other financial instruments”.

We don’t meet with the termini “investments” in the earlier economical dictionary, but we meet the combined termini “investment policy” – the union of the industrial decisions, which guarantee main directions of the capital investments, the activities of their concentration in the determinant suburbs, on which the reaching of planned rates of development of the society production is depended, balancing and effectiveness, getting more and more production and profit of the national income for every lost Ruble”. For today, in the most actual definitions, the capital investments are bounded only by financial means, when not only financial, but also the investment of natural, material-technical and informational resources takes place. Labour resources take an actual place in the investment process. They themselves fulfill this or that investment process.

A positive side of the discussed definitions is that they connect investment policy and capital placements (investments):

- economical development according to the key directions to the concentration;

- providing high rates of economical growth;

- raising an economical effectiveness, which is expressed:

a) by growing the throw off of the production and national income for every lost Ruble;

b) by fulfilling the branch structure of the investments;

c) by improving their technological structure;

d) by optimization of their further production structure.

Compared with such definition of the investments (capital placement) the definition of investments in the dictionary attaching the “Economics” seems to be unimproved: “investments - the expenses of gathering production and industrial means and increasing material reserve”. In this definition current expenses (production expenses) are mixed with the investment (capital) expense. Also, not the investment expenses but (though the investments are followed by the appropriate expenses) exactly advancing. It differs from the expenses by that the means (means) are put by returning the advanced values, also, under the conditions of growth, to which the concept-advanced capital is corresponding. the advancing may be realized in the money, natural-material and informational forms.

Except the termini “investments”, there are two more termini related with the investment. They are shown below.

“Human capital investment” – any activity provided for rising the workers labour productivity (in the way of growing their qualification and developing their abilities); at the expenses of improving the workers’ education, health and raising the mobility of the working forces”. It is very useful to use the mentioned termini, though it needs one correction: the human capital investments do not concern only workers, but also the servants, representatives of every kind of labour.

“Investment commodity, capital goods – a capital.”

In the official manuals of political economy of the reformation time the capital investments are discussed as “expenses for creating new main funds and widening, reconstruction and renewing the active ones”. In this definition the investments (capital placements) during separation of the forms (types) of further production of the main funds are bounded only by main funds (without increases of the circulation funds and insurance reserves): a) creating new ones; b) widening; c) reconstruction; d) renewing. Also, the concept of the industrial gathering appears, at the expenses of widening of basic, circulation funds and also insurance reserves takes place”.

You’ll meet below the definitions of investments from “the course of economy”: the investments are called “placements of fund into the basic capital (basic means of production), reserves, also other economical objects and processes, which request long-termed influxing of material and cash means. “According to the division of capital into physical and money forms, the investments too must be divided into material and cash investments”.

They apportion investment commodity, to which belong industrial and nonindustrial building objects, vehicles purposed for changing or widened technical park and the furniture, increasing reserves and others.

“They call the total investments of production an investment product, which is directed towards keeping and increasing the basic capital (basic means) and reserve. Total investments consist of two parts. One of them is called the depreciation; it represents important investment resources for compensation of renewal till the level of before industrial usage, wearing out and repairing of the basic means. Second consisting part of the total investments is represented by net investments – capital investments for the purpose of increasing basic means”. Depreciation is not a compensation resource of wearing the basic funds out, but it is the purposeful financial source of such resources.

Human capital investment is “a specific kind of investments, mostly in education and health protection”.

“Real investments are the investments in the economical branches and also, they are kinds of economical activities, which provide influxing the increases of real capital, that is increasing material values of the industrial means”. We can agree with such definition with one specification that material and nonmaterial values too belong to the real capital (wealth), consequently science-researching experimental-construction results, various information, education of he workers and others. Such service as organization of the excitable games, also the service of redistribution social wealth from one private person to another (except charity).

“financial investments represent placement of funds into the shares, obligations, promissory notes, other securities and instruments. Such investments, of course, do not give increases of the real material capital, but they help getting profit, consequently at the expenses of changing the course of the securities in the time of speculation, or distinguishing the course in different places of sell and purchasing”. We share wholly such definition, hence it follows that financial investments (if it is not followed by real investments as a result) do not increase real material wealth and real nonmaterial wealth. According to this context, the expression below is very important: “we must distinguish financial investments, which represent placement of the funds in the ways of selling and purchasing the securities for the purpose of getting profit and financial investments, which become cash and real, moved to real physical capital.”

In the “economical course” quoted before long and short-termed investments are separated. Recognizing the existence of the bounds between them, the authors ascribe short-termed investments to “one month or more” investments. If we get such conditioned criteria, that we can call the investments which overcome the terms of some months, long-termed ones, which is very doubtful and we don’t agree with it. A long-termed character of the fund placement is a significant feature of the investments (short-term doesn’t combine with the concept of investments). Principally, it would be better to point out quick compensative, middle termed compensative and long-termed compensative investments:

- less then 6 months – quick compensative;

- from 6 months up to the year and a half – middle termed compensative;

- more then the year and a half – long termed compensative.

We stopped at the definition of the investments in the capital work “economical course” for the special purpose, as, in it the author tried to discuss the concept of investments systemically and quite completely, herewith the book is published just now.

We’ll return to the discussion the definition economical category of “investments” in different publications in the following chapter. The definitions given here are quite enough for having a notion of the level of lighting up the given category in the economical literature.

What conclusions may be made according the definition of the mentioned economical category in the published works, except the made notions and specifications?

There is quite deeply, concretely and thoroughly defined the concept of “investments”, different definitions in the economical literature; but mostly in every works about the investments discussed by us until now, there is not opened the essence of investments as an economical category. In every monograph, even if it has a title investment, as an economical category, there is given only the definition, concept of investments. But, as the Academician Vasil Chantladze explains, “a concept is a discussion, which proves something about the distinguishing feature of the researched object. A concept out of much essential characteristic features represents only one, and essential in it is only - definition”.

But the categories are much wider; it is “a key, the most fundamental concept of every science”. Economical categories theoretically represent real, objectively existed productive relations. A category is the defining of occasions of existed characters, connections, relations of the objective world. Generally, any educational process is fulfilled by the categories, which give opportunities for dividing the processes and occasions semantically, for expressing the definitions of a subject and realize their specific peculiarities and economical relations of a material world.

Our goal is exactly to substantiate investments – as an economical category and also, as a financial category in the narrow understanding.

Here we apply for another manual thesis made by the academician Vasil Chantladze: “every financial relation is an economical one and every financial category is and economical one, but not every economical relation and economical category is financial relation and financial category”.

In the process of defining the investments, it is important to take in mind the sides of resources, expenses and incomes, because investment, from one side, is the result of the manufacture’s activity, and, from another one, - a part of income, which, in this case, is not used for usage.

Another occasion: it is advisable to discuss investments in two aspects: as a category of reserve and flow, which will reflect exactly the connection between “placement of funds” and “investments”.

As we’ve mentioned above, not long ago, in the well-known Soviet literature the concepts of “the placement of funds” and “investments” were accepted to be the synonyms and concerned to be investment of sources for further production of the main funds and formation of the turnover funds. We meet with such understanding of the concept of “investment” (here, they separate three types of the investment expenses: investments in the basic capital of investments, investments in the house building and investments in the reserves) in the modern economical publications and it is mostly used on the macro level during a statistical analyze of economical processes. In this concrete occasion investment is the category of reserve.

According to the aspect of flow the investments may be discussed in the process of analyzing industrial activity, when it is necessary to learn the variety of the economical relations related with the investments’ further production and formation, sources, objects and subjects, that is on the micro level.

Main distinguishing criteria of different methods of approach towards the concept of “investment” the aspect of prolonging of measuring this showing. Is it possible or not to measure the investment showing separate from the term factor (the norm of gathering, the volume of capital property, the reserves of production and so on). If it is possible, then it is the category of reserve, and if it is not, then it is measured in the section of time and belongs to the category of flow.

Thus, investment, as an economical category, is quite consuming concept. It concerns the elements defining the regularities of function and regulation of the investment domain, privately:

First, resources and values put into the industrial activity. Here, investments may be realized in the following ways:

1. mobile and real estates (buildings, constructions, furniture and other material values);

2. cash sources, purposeful bank accounts, credits, shares and other long-termed securities;

3. owners rights according to the author’s rights, licenses, Now-How, experience and other intellectual values;

4. the rights for using land and other natural resources, also other owners rights.

Notwithstanding any forms, investments are results of capital gathering. Leading investments – regularity of gathering defines its volume and dynamics and, generally, whole investment activity.

Second, the incomes ruling volume and dynamics of the resource investment. Herewith, we must underline the circumstance, that the process of getting profit, the regularity of its creation, isn’t a constant of the concept “investment”. The factors of production (also the conditions of exploitation of capital values) and selling (market conjuncture), also the process of capital gathering is the leading and important condition only for the investment formation. Though, we underline again, that the process of getting and distributing the income is a significant component of the investment activity.

The transformation of investments makes the basis for the investment activity, which concern the following circles: resources – investment (expense) – capital property – income. The practice of realization such circles of the investments transformation is exactly the investment activity (investing). The investment activity, except the investments itself, concern motivation and stimulation of the capital gathering, relations of capital gathering and ruling, also, totality of the defined level of profitability on the capital and the goals of capital growth.

According to the mentioned above, in the definitions of the investment as economical category sometimes the needed exactness and clearness is not felt, some categories of the wealth are represented tightly enough. For example, real prosperity is bounded only by material estimation. This leads us to the unvalued investment resources in the era of transformation industrial society into the investment one; also to the recognition of yet uninvolved valuable scientific researches in the production, securities turned into speculation objects, and unreal property in the consistence of one and the same parts; to there equalization. On the basis of the made analyses, we can cite a wide definition of the investments together with the leading categories.

Investment resources – are values, invested into this or that project in this or that kind for the purpose of getting profit beginning with material ones, finished with cash.

Kinds of the prosperity are equal to the kinds of the investment resources and is divided into real and cash, consequently into financial resources.

Real investment resources concern all kinds:

- natural resources;

- labour resources;

- material resources, the usage of which is possible in the economical development (buildings, constructions, vehicles and furniture, transport and communication means and so on;

- investment resources (in the widest understanding, that is from scientific-research and experimental-construction works, till the education potential of the society and till all kinds of gathering useful information, written about every possible, that is typing and electronic bearer).

Cash, consequently financial resources concern every cash means for usage in this way in definite conditions or directed in the sort of investments.

Cash means (resources) turn into the financial resources in the case of structuring of funds of purposeful destination foreseen for investments of this or that kind.

After defining investment resources we can make wide definition of the investments as economical category.

Investments – are the placements of real, financial and intellectual resources into the projects, the fulfillment of which leads us to getting the increases from real wealth, in the material and informational forms. It is followed by a cash (financial) prosperity or its increases (at the expenses of the distribution of the cash means).

As an economical category, investments express economical relations, which are created in the ways of using and formation of the investment resources between the participants of the investment process for the purpose of improving and widening of the enterprise.

Second, does the mortgage lead company you are considering allow for you to cherry pick the lead, or see the mortgage lead before you buy it. This is always a good way to gage the quality of the mortgage lead.

Some mortgage lead companies will allow for you to set up a filter specific to the type of lead that you are looking for. This is not a bad way to purchase mortgage leads as long as there is not an extra fee for the filter and the mortgage leads are being delivered fresh, or in real time.

Third, look for mortgage lead companies that allow for low minimum deposits without minimum order requirements.

If a mortgage lead companies mortgage leads are being obtained through their own mortgage lead generation web sites, than they should feel confident enough in the quality of their mortgage leads to know that you will continue to buy their mortgage leads and continue to make deposits.

So there should be no point in requiring large deposits in the mind of the mortgage lead company.

What is important when looking for a mortgage lead company to fit your needs is taking the time to do the research. Pick up the phone and speak with someone in sales or customer service. Ask as many questions about the mortgage leads you feel to be appropriate.

The key is to find the mortgage lead company that obtains their own mortgage leads and allows for low minimum deposits allowing you to spend your money as you go. They are out there. It is only a matter of taking the time to find them.

New Home Loan - 3 Tips To Speed Up The Mortgage Loan Approval Process

2008-09-24T12:57:00.001-07:00

magine this: you’ve found the perfect house, and feel lucky because the interest rates happen to be at an all time low. So you submit your mortgage loan application, and then…wait. The next week, interest rates go up a point, but you’re still waiting. Another point would mean a significant amount in the monthly payment you will pay, and you groan when you open the newspaper and find that indeed it has gone up again.

Can this be avoided?

Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to speed up the process of your loan application! Here are a few suggestions.

First of all, if you haven’t yet started shopping for your new home, you should consider shopping for a home LOAN before the home. It is possible to be approved for a mortgage loan before you ever find your home, and this will accomplish two things. First of all, it will allow you to lock in an interest rate, which will completely eliminate the “waiting” game mentioned above. In addition, if a seller sees that you are pre-approved, he will be more likely to negotiate with you because he will view you as a “serious” buyer.

If you’ve already found your dream house and still need to get a mortgage loan approval, there are some steps that you can take to speed up the process.

You should be sure that anytime the mortgage company calls you, that you return their call as soon as possible, and then provide whatever documentation or data they need. Remember, if they call you for something that generally means that they won’t be able to move forward on your loan until they receive it.

Next, you can make things easier for the mortgage company by providing them with a file containing all of the information that you know they will need—organized and easy-to-read. For example, you should include your tax returns, income statements, employment records, credit reports, explanation of bad marks on your credit reports, bank and investment records, the contract for your new home, all bank records, and cancelled checks or other evidence of your current mortgage or rental payments. This will save the time of the mortgage company having to ask you for all of this paperwork.

Finally, it won’t hurt to call and check the progress every now and then. Mortgage lenders process thousands of loan applications, and you can make sure that yours doesn’t sit on the bottom of the stack by calling attention to it with a phone call.

5 Ways To Get The Lowest Mortgage Interest Rate You Can Online

2008-09-24T12:53:00.001-07:00

Everyone loves a bargain and getting a lower mortgage interest rate can save you a substantial amount of money over the life of your loan. There are several ways to go about ensuring that you pay the least amount of interest when you take out a home mortgage.

Be aware of your credit score.

Good credit is the key to not only getting a mortgage, but to getting the best interest rates available. Mortgage lenders like to reward borrowers that pay off their bills in a timely manner. Chances are if you have been faithful with your other payments, you will be faithful to pay them back, so they can afford to take a risk on you and offer a lower interest rate.

Close any existing credit card accounts that you no longer use.

If you have several credit card accounts, they can affect the interest rate on your mortgage, even if they have a zero balance. Lenders see open accounts as potential for debt, which adds a risk of them not getting their money back. To balance this risk, they will often charge you a slightly higher interest rate.

Lock in interest rates before you close.

Once you have agreed on a low interest rate, ask the lender to lock in that rate. Rates can fluctuate drastically in the time it takes for you to get your mortgage and that could mean paying a totally different interest rate than what was originally quoted.

Make the biggest down payment you can afford.

Putting a down payment from your savings on your house, lowers the amount you plan to finance, lowering the interest you will pay over the life of your loan.

Shop Around.

You don’t have to work with the first lender that you approach. With the vast amount of online mortgage brokers, it is easy to compare offers and pick the company that offers you the lowest interest rate. Don’t be afraid to tell brokers that you are shopping around, or ask them if they can match the interest rates of a competitors quote.

Best Car Loan Rates - Tips To Getting A Low Auto Loan Rate Online

2008-09-24T12:49:00.001-07:00

Online car loan shopping practically guarantees that you are getting the best rates. Your location is no longer a barrier to finding the best auto loan rate. However, you want to take advantage of the financing options available. While searching for an auto loan, research financing companies, negotiate terms, and increase your down payment to get low rates.

Study Financing Companies

A sure fire way to find the best car loan rate is to study financing companies. Only by requesting quotes and comparing the fine print can you truly know you are getting the lowest rate.

Fortunately, online auto loan brokers offer convenient ways to compare lenders. With some sites you can make side by side comparisons, while other sites will email you multiple financing offers. Auto loan brokers work hard to attract customers by negotiating lower rates with lenders, so you often will find better deals through their sites that through a dealership.

To ensure that you are getting accurate quotes, fill out the form as completely as possible. A slight difference in income or employment dates can reduce your interest rate.

Negotiate Terms

To find the best auto loan for your financial situation, you will want to balance the interest rates and length of your loan. Shorter loans offer lower rates, but with a higher monthly payment. Take a look at your monthly budget to see what type of auto loan would work best for your situation.

Increase Your Down Payment

While zero down or a slight down payment are options for car buyers, a large down payment will save you money. By putting down 20% or more, you will qualify for a lower interest rate, even if you have adverse credit. You will also save money by not paying interest on that portion of the vehicle’s price.

Demand A Better Deal

By getting pre-qualified for a car loan, you can also reduce the cost of your vehicle by demanding a better deal from your dealership. As a pre-qualified buyer, salespeople see you as a cash buyer, and they want your money. You can negotiate for rebates, higher trade-in value of your vehicle, and extra features.

Find Lost Money

2008-09-10T15:47:00.001-07:00

For most of us, lost money is what’s under the couch, in your coat pocket, on the street somewhere, but there are much larger unclaimed assets out there waiting to be recovered " money in bank accounts you’d forgotten about, paychecks that were never collected, utility and rent deposits, etc. But what if you could get your hands on hundreds, or even thousands, of pounds you never knew you had? It is possible.
Way back in 1999, the Montel Williams show aired a presentation about lost money. I originally thought that the subject of the show was money that someone previously had in had that was literally lost. The subject could have been funds squandered through gambling or bad investments. However, the show was about funds that many of us have. We just don’t know that we have it.
Well, Oprah Winfrey also had an interesting show on the topic of lost money. Oprah proved that people are not aware of the missing funds by uniting seventy-thousand dollars in lost money to audience members. These audience members were pleasantly surprised to have the funds that were rightfully theirs. She went on to explain that millions and millions of dollars go unclaimed year after year.
We all know that, many Americans have unclaimed property, or lost money, floating around in federal and state accounts. The unclaimed money or property has reached in excess of forty billion dollars in these institutions. And here's the interesting part. However, over five-hundred billion dollars are held up in corporations, both private and public. These staggering numbers are due to the simple fact that people don’t know about their lost money.
Moreover, seven out of ten people estimated has unclaimed property or funds locked away somewhere without even knowing about it. Odds are you are one of those people. The question is whether Montel Williams or Oprah Winfrey will have repeat shows on the topic of lost money but it doesn’t seem likely.
Unluckily, Oprah Winfrey and Montel Williams don’t have quite enough time to find lost money for people across the United States. Maybe, it should be in your interest to take matters into your own hands by doing a little research for your self. Yes, finding out about your heritage could be a great start. There are also a number of web sites that offer information on the subject of finding lost money as well.
Always remember that, it is best to be leery of scams when it comes to personal finances and personal information. Avoid divulging too much information to an unsecured party. Bear in mind that if someone asks for your date of birth, your social security number and your mother's maiden name, a red flag should go up.
And take note also, that you should never provide information about your personal bank account and you definitely don’t want to make an investment on your search. Well, if the money is yours, you should be able to find it without forking out a lot of cash in the process.

Cash loans are short-term loans consisting of small amounts. You need to surrender post-dated checks to the lender which includes the loan amount plus the interest or the commission. The credit history is generally ignored. Once the due date arrives, the check is deposited and the loan amount gets automatically repaid.
Cash loans are the most common loans, which the person avails for satisfying his personal day to day needs. These are the short terms loans and the amount which the person can borrow in the cash loans is generally smaller. They are generally known by different names such as cash advance loan, post dated check loan, deferred deposit check loan or the payday loans.
The borrower needs to know only about your present address, bank details, income and expenditure, and the loan is issued as per your details.
They are basically unsecured loans, but if you’re willing to put forward collateral, you may get lower interest rates and higher amount, with a running risk that your property can be mortgaged if you do not pay in time.
Cash loans are generally smaller in amount, between £1,000 and £25,000 generally, with the repayment period varying from two weeks to three months. Usually, a month or lesser is the repayment time. The interest rates are usually high. Therefore you’re, for your own goodness, requested to make sure whether you need that high and amount and can’t arrange it otherwise.
The extensions to the loans are possible if you’re ready to pay a little more interest towards the loan. The process involves online banking, and is usually very fast. It gets approved quickly, and is a very quick process overall.

Benefits of Consolidating Unsecured Debt to your Mortgage

2008-09-07T12:09:00.000-07:00

Trying to have a hold on all of your debt can be difficult at the best of times. You may have multiple loans and debts for different reasons; debt consolidation can help reduce your overall repayment and manage your debt more effectively. Debt consolidation is simple; it brings all of the debt together under one single loan. Many people consolidate their loan into their mortgage, making it easier to bring it all together. There are multiple benefits to bringing all debt into one, but there are four major benefits of consolidating unsecured debt to your mortgage.

Does the Interest Rate make a difference?

By using Debt Consolidation you can actually lower your overall interest rate that you are paying. The idea is that you are moving all of your debt to one location; this often requires the need to re-configure and restructure an existing loan. If you consolidate your loans, certain debts may be a lower interest rate because the new interest rate is better than the old one. While this may not happen with all debts, just because the new loan is being stretched over a longer period may reduce the repayment and hence make the loan more manageable. For example:

The repayment on a $20,000 loan at 11% over 3 years is $652 per month. If this loan was consolidated into a 30 year mortgage with the same interest rate the repayment would be $190 each month. Effectively releasing cash flow of $462 each month.

The above example shows how people can get a handle on their finances. It could help you afford your monthly payments, where you may not have been able to as separate debts.

Why use a Mortgage to secure the debt?

The loan options available to consolidate your debt are using a Secured Consolidation Loan or an Unsecured Consolidation Loan. When a lender has security against a loan product they will offer you a higher loan amount and a better interest rate. Both these features allow a better result when consolidating your debts. A low loan amount may prevent you from consolidating all of your debts. At times this may prevent you from obtaining a Debt Consolidation Loan all together.

Convenience and Simplicity

Another benefit of debt consolidation, however, is the simple convenience factor. By consolidating your debts, you are bringing all of your debt into one place. Many people often have 3, 4, or 5 loans and sometimes up to 10 loans; this can be very difficult to manage and keep all of your loan agreements. Paying one lender, with one interest rate, and one monthly payment can make your finances significantly simpler to manage.

Conclusion

Many people bring their loans together through debt consolidation as a way to make their lives easier and simpler; debt is never fun for anyone, but debt consolidation allows you to manage your debt more effectively and take control. Consolidation can allow for lower monthly payments, and the convenience of having it all in one place. Consolidating your debt into a mortgage is an even better way to bring everything together under one roof; and make your debt work for you a little more.

Benefits of Mortgage Calculators

2008-09-07T11:51:00.000-07:00

Mortgage calculators can be crucial for people who are looking into buying a home. While it is nice to think that people can buy a house without having to deal with a mortgage, most people who buy a home require a loan. The numbers and equations in obtaining a mortgage are enough to confuse anyone. Many people simply talk to their mortgage broker or the lender to try to figure out exactly how much a mortgage will cost them. There is a way to be informed on the mortgage as a first step to making any decisions. By using a mortgage calculator, you can figure your payments and basic costs. There are various calculators which can help you in any number of calculations.

What Calculators are available?

There are calculators available for almost any purpose you can imagine, below is a basic list available for mortgage purposes.

Debt Consolidation Calculator – Work out the benefits of consolidating your debts.
Cost Calculator – Work out how much it’s going to cost you to buy your house.
Repayment Calculator – What are your repayments going to be?
Borrowing Calculator – How much will a lender offer you? This is usually a very general calculator. The only definitive way to assess this is the speak to your lender or mortgage broker.
There are also calculators for car loans, calculating balloon payments, the effect of extra repayment, lump sum repayments and many other purposes.

Know What You Can Afford

The first major benefit of a mortgage calculator is the ability to figure out what you can afford. While many people know what they can afford as far as monthly payments are concerned, they are unsure how interest and everything else plays into the numbers. The mortgage calculator gives you the luxury of playing with the interest rate, amount of deposit, and loan term to figure out what you can afford, and how to arrive at the loan amount that you can afford.

Know What Small Changes Do to your Payment

The next benefit is the simple idea that the mortgage calculator allows you to play with the numbers at will to understand how changes affect your monthly payment. By playing with the different numbers you can figure out the best way to get what you want in a realistic way.

Know your Price Range

When buying a house people often find they are unsure of how much they can afford. How does Interest rate or deposit impact the price they can afford to pay for a house? What is the maximum purchase price? Some people believe they can pay a certain amount, but can actually pay more. Being informed will allow you to buy better and give you an advantage when negotiating with the vendor.

Do Mortgage Calculators have limitations?

Mortgage Calculators are a fantastic resource as a first step to securing a mortgage or buying a house. The simple nature of a calculator is also its greatest limitation; there are many factors to consider in obtaining a mortgage that a calculator does not cover. For example, a calculator does not look into your credit worthiness or the impact a credit default has on the interest rate, or the amount you can afford. It also does not consider or have the ability to work out exact loan costs for your particular situation. Mortgage Calculators should be viewed as a first step asset to obtaining a mortgage, but know they have their limitations.

Summary

When using a mortgage calculator, you can begin to educate yourself on what you can afford the basic costs and the benefits of various loan situations. You can have ready access to online calculators or even computer based calculators without dealing with a lenders sales pitch. Calculators are great as a first step to obtaining a loan or a mortgage, but know the limitations. Where possible make a call to a Mortgage Broker or a lender as the next informed step to obtaining a mortgage. When trying to restructure a mortgage, or to entering into a new one, the mortgage calculator can help you understand what you can do, and what you cannot afford.

Second Mortgage a Good First Step

2008-09-03T22:11:00.000-07:00

A second mortgage can be the first step to climbing out of debt, especially for homeowners who have bad credit. A second mortgage is a loan taken out in "second position" on a property that already has a mortgage. There are fixed-rate loans, adjustable-rate loans and home equity lines of credit (also known as HELOCs). Fixed-dollar-amount mortgages are the way to go when you need all the money at once. A HELOC is a credit line that can be drawn upon as needed up to the limit of the loan.

"Bad Credit" Second Mortgages
Your right to credit is guaranteed by the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. You can't be denied credit based on race, gender, marital status or ethnicity. But how much money you can borrow and how much interest you will be charged will depend on your credit score.

Credit is easy to get and hard to control. Not using it properly will get you a low FICO score from the three major credit bureaus. Generally, a score of 680 or better signifies good credit. Scores in the 680-620 range are still considered good, but will cause creditors to take a second look before lending you money. 620 and lower, and you are in the bad credit range.

Here are some indications that you are in bad credit territory:

You have to apply for new credit cards to pay off old ones, thus rotating but not retiring your debt.
You can only make the minimum payments on your loans and cards each month.
You are at the limit on all your cards and accounts.
You have to get subprime financing when you need to borrow money.

Improving Your Financial Situation

It's a catch 22 that getting a bad credit second mortgage can lower your FICO score initially, but it can also help raise it in the long run-if you use the money to pay off high interest debts. This new loan doesn't reduce your debt; it just restructures it to help you get back on your feet financially. An added bonus is that the interest you pay is tax deductible. The IRS says joint filers can deduct all the interest to a maximum of $100,000 on home mortgages.

It's easy to shop and compare bad credit second mortgages online at reputable sites like www.badcreditsecondmortgages.com. The no-obligation application process is quick and confidential. Interest rates are still relatively low, but might rise in 2006, so now is a great time to see if a second mortgage is a good financial move for you.
