There are several main mortgage systems in the world: partly open, wildly open and the model of well-balanced autonomy. Due to the fact that all these types are more or less relative they may mix in one particular country at the same time.

Each model of mortgage loans comprises its own elements which are characterized according to the model.

French home loans may be refered to as partly open ones. Built houses and houses (apartments) in the process of building are the crediting objects of such a system. At the stage of crediting resources formation bank may not necessarily use primary instruments of pledge as the warranties for these resources.

The simply organized economic base allows to be used not only in special mortgage banks but also in universal banks which merely have mortgage loans departments.

Within this model French home loans system rarely orientates on any standards, which set certain parameters of mortgage crediting including their promptness and rates.

Mortgage banks usually decide themselves on the terms of the credits they give. In case this system exists in the country purely and the market of mortgage credits is limited, banks may deliberately raise interest rates and cut the terms of crediting.

Relative simplicity of the organization of crediting process on the basis of such mortgage lending system stipulated its practical expansion in many countries of the world. And especially in some developing countries where the financial market structure and bond market are poorly developed. Yet this system is implied in some developed countries such as France, England, Spain, Israel and so on.

In Eastern Europe, for example, the main mortgage lending objects are as follows: house building and private houses purchase. In this regard the value of primary payments, terms of crediting are differentiating according to the countries economic system.

In Eastern Europe mortgage loans credits belong to the group of consumer credits.

In Western Europe countries they become so popular that have formed a separate group of so called real-estate loans. This separation was determined by the fact that home loans are given for longer terms and the mechanism of their registration differs from those of consumer loans. They suppose a great deal of analytical and certification work.

The peculiarities of this model:

1. Mortage loans formation sources may be form by bank in different ways including own or/and outsourcing money
2. Interest rates for mortgage loans are directly related to the current situation at the market. As the result banks activity for home crediting depends on the advantageous or not seasons.

The way you run your business, your particular payment strategy should determine the type of a credit card you use.

Money.co.uk made a certain research and conclusions correlating different options and opportunities provided by various types of credit cards.

In case you have a bad credit debt it’s worth having a balance transfer card which shifts your debt to a new account with lower interest rates. It’ also contains two options: 0% balance transfer card – in this case your balance remain interest free and all the money you put on this card will go to pay out your debt. Still it’s worth remaining that the most reasonable term is the longest offered one for if you won’t be able to cover your debt in the interest free time frame you will be accumulating interest at the card’s rate. The other kind is – lifetime balance transfer cards – this type is suitable for those who do have large balance and hate switching to new cards al the time.

These cards also provide the interest rate which is much lower than those of standard credit cards.

Your choice of the credit card may also be guided by the purpose you follow. For example you are to make a big purchase and spread the payment for several months. So specially worker out “purchase’ credit card is at your disposal. One should keep in his mind a sort of a strategy – it’s better to make a purchase as soon as you get a card and make payment so that by the time the 0% deal expires you have cleared your debt completely. And here as in the option with transfer card it’s better to choose the longest terms option to minimize your expenses.

The reward card is a sort of salvation for those who pay his credit card off completely every month – this card will help you to putmoney back into the pocket. The majority of such cards have a payment back rate of about 1% still many offer even a higher percentage return for your first few months.

The system of students’ loans is wildly spread in the majority of developed countries. Both the state and the private sectors are involved in this system. Though there are lots of peculiarities for each country such programs in every state have much in common – their aim to make higher education more accessible. In some countries the loans are only for students from the families with low income, in others educational crediting is connected to the state prices control.

Frequent question is how to pay off high student loans.

American education crediting is considered to be the most developed one. Its main feature is that every one interested has an opportunity to get money for education. The federal loans system meets the requirements of people of different financial state. The federal students low goes without guarantee, the rtes are minimal (so the problem how to pay off high student loans – is reduced), Government is the very warrantor. Unfortunately the loan is rather insignificant and sometimes inefficient to pay the whole course. In such case it’s worth using a parents’ loan. The main methods of competitive struggle in this financial sector are various discounts provided by banks to their clients.

The rate of education state financing comprises 51%. Even private universities receive state support though on a lower level (about 17%). Except the education itself credits cover expenses for lodging, meals and literature.

The main types of education crediting in the USA:

• Student loans
• Parent loans
• Private loans

There is a fourth type – consolidation loan, which allows a borrower to unite all his loans to make the payment process easier.

Student loans: These loans have a low rate and do not require additional guarantees. Student federal loans are called Stafford loans and can be of 2 kinds:

Federal Family Education Loan Program – these loans are provided by private lenders such as banks, crediting unions. State government warrants the payment of such loans.

Federal Direct Student Loan Program – these credits are managed by “Direct lending School” and are provided directly to students and their parents.

Stafford Loans may be subsidized and unsubsidized.  In the first case the rates during the studies are paid by the Government, in the second the student pays the rates himself though there is always an opportunity to postpone the payment terms. To get a subsidized form you’ll have to show financial necessity. Unsubsidized form is accessible to every student o any financial state.

The students who live on their parent’s money may get up to $2625 in the first year, $3500 – in the second and $ 5500 in each following. Those students who have their own income may borrow additional $4000 in the first and the second years and $5000 on the following ones.

American Financial Crisis Moved to Great Britain

Great Britain Representatives passed their words for Northern Rock depository bonds. Still it didn’t calm down those who are trying hurriedly to retrieve their money. They are expecting Chancellor of the Exchequer resignation in Great Britain while Russia is estimating potential losses of the liquidity crisis risk.

Northern Rock, which is one of the five largest banks in Great Britain, depositors kept standing in huge queues in hope to retrieve their deposits. In July 1.4 million depositors possessed the depositors of 24.4 billions. The bank unfortunately “shook” when faced cash lack in august this year.

Within the day the Northern Rock valuation has fallen by the third and within 2 days by 49%. According to experts” predictions it will not stay alive under preset conditions. The stock values of other mortgage banks have been decreased as well among them – Alliance and Leicester, Bradford and Bingley. So to say one crediting establishment “illness” rows to an epidemic caught by the others.

Chancellor of the Exchequer said the Government will help both Northern Rock and the other banks which have faced the strain on liquidity. Still the very Government was criticized for the wrong policy which led to such situation.

Admittedly, the strain on liquidity came to Great Britain from the USA where the ‘bulb” of mortgage credit blew out. Today specialists are following events at the USA markets trying to foresee the following actions.

Someone thinks American financial crisis bring about a double threat to other countries. First of all market requirement decrease may “bite” the countries which direct considerable mount of their product to the USA. Among them are Mexico, Israel and Columbia. And Mexico has the record index – 85%. Moreover Thailand the growth of economic development of such countries as Thailand may also fall down for they depend on American demand considerably.

Secondly American financial crisis may reflect on the “growing markets” which however will undergo this influence on different levels. Such countries as Brasilia and Russia have created significant reserves to be able to wait out the instability.

At the same time other countries have basis or threats. Turkey and Hungary which faced budget deficit and the countries which have problems in financial policy, including Argentine and Venezuela are in the poorest conditions. Rating agency Standard and Poor’s gave a list of the countries which will suffer from the strain on liquidity. Within the list there are countries which “borrow more than save” – the majority of African republics and several Eastern Europe countries.

Financial Management of Plant Operation

On conditions of the market system the focus is shifted from manufacturing to financial planning, and according to this the very structure and direction of informational flows should change.
For such operational efficiency modern technical and soft information processing means are required. So the fist task is to provide the proper technical arrangement of internal control. This hard and demanded work include following events:

• Control Machinery Rearrangement for the whole enterprise taking in account the necessity of “transparence’. For the great enterprises and holdings the best choice is budget authority.
• Management organization development according to business unit division.
• Financial service organization to provide the opportunity to monitor the processes in all the directions: - for financial management objects
- for management processes (planning, analyses, prediction)
- for financial flows

Financial Management Objects

In its classical interpretation financial enterprises (it means money) are the financial management objects. So the sources of their formation and the relations that appear in the process of their formation and realization can be counted to financial management objects as well. All the company non-monetary assets should be added to this option for these are the same money but in a bit different form. So the financial manager should pay attention to the enterprise assets usage.

The financial director should be interested in the process of the financial result formation. Not the least aspect of financial management of plant operation is the financial risks leading for they inevitably accompany any enterprise in its economic and financial activities.

It’s important to notice the targeted activity of the enterprise in general and financial management as t is. Moreover the firm aims should be clear, formulated, fixed in internal documents and be communicated to all employees. Only then the activity of each enterprise branch will contribute to the tasks achievement. This is the condition for any company development otherwise it will stagnate and will loose in competitive struggle.

Financial Result Formation

It’s known that the main phases of the manufacturing process are – supply, production as it is and goods realization. The financial manager participation is important on all these levels.

Let us take for example distribution of money received from the goods realization. In this case the financial manager should solve the following problems:

1. How to finance the current production according to the enterprise reconstruction planning.
2. What part of a net income direct to the dividends payment and how much money to spend on technical development.
3. Whether the enterprise may allow any social programs.
