Personal Loan Requires Planning That Valentines Day Don’t Agree Because It’s a Matter of Heart

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

One guy asked me day before Valentines Day that he needs a fast loan by tomorrow, he didn’t know how but he wanted to do something special for his love. This look strange because if he was aware of his passion while having knowledge of this special event before then why shouldn’t he planed it earlier. While replying back I understand the reason of his emergency, yes it felt really cool when I heard he met love of his life just one day before. Oh, it’s great because it sounds a valid reason but according to financial statistics one third of males population use to leave getting a gift to the very last minute with a reason mostly quoted they were not getting an idea to express their feelings although they actually forgotten the event. I hope this fact don’t make angry any women of our love because there are plenty of negative forces mostly related to the economical issues are taking up space of men mind’s hard disk, it only require to run your software of love and trust to remove the junk data out of mind, leaving the free space that holds and returns you the same person of love, care and affection. Anyway, try to avoid taking loans in such situations in which it is required to plan rather then to forcefully make any upcoming event into some kind of emergency.

For all those who are looking for a competitive way to fund buying a present that include major shopping like extravagant gift such as jewellery, car or luxurious dream holiday for a loved one, personal loan is more cost-effective option in terms of the amount of interest payable in comparison to payday loan, store or credit cards.

Being a financial consultant I have an advantage that I am going take I will adopt very economical way of expressing my love, holding a valentine card in my one hand while red rose in other, moving my lips to say happy valentine and ask her while looking deeper in her eyes will you take dinner out side. She will reply me as usual while smiling why not, yes. And I know how it’s hard to get a table in any restaurant or hotel for the next three days. Most of the guys will like my idea but I want to say to the majority of women who might not agree with my idea “It’s the only women of my heart for whom I am saving, when today I go out for a week or so, I give her the money to spend for these days but what happens if I go forever”. I am just a custodian and every thing is belongs to her.

Happy Valentines Day to all of you! Manage your personal finances masterly and stay out from credit problems and keep smiling.

Bank of Canada’s Lowest Ever Interest-Rate Relief According To Canadian Consumer View Point

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Lending rates hit record low when Bank of Canada announced last month, on January 20th that it would cut its key policy rate by half a percentage point. Instant market reaction was detected when BOC chopped its main interest to historical lowest rate ever.

Banking sector depresses Stocks and Loonie down after Bank of Canada cuts interest rate by half a point! The Toronto stock market was down over 100 points in early trading that took composite index tumbled latter at 177.7 points to 8,663.8 while Canadian dollar was down half a cent US after the Bank of Canada cut its key interest rate to one per cent.

On the other hand Canadian senior citizens don’t seem to be happy with the interest cut down because their interest returns on their investment and saving with the bank will affect their already fixed and limited means to squeeze more.

What Does It Affect You As A Debtor On Having Various Forms Of Debt?

  • Canadian Consumer Having A Mortgage Loan!

Fixed-rate pricing on downward trend! If your interest rate is fixed, pricing for fixed rate mortgages is higher than it normally would be, as lenders are accounting for higher perceived risk in the financial services industry.  The spread between a five-year Government of Canada Bond (1.58 per cent) and a competitive fixed rate mortgage rate (4.79 per cent) is now 3.21 per cent – which is much higher than what we have seen over the last few years.

Variable mortgages offer savings! If you have a variable rate mortgage, your payment level in most cases will remain the unchanged, but more of your payment will go towards the principal and less to interest. So you will be paying off your home more quickly. Moreover, whether the lower policy rate from the Bank of Canada will translate to lower interest rates for some borrowers remains to be seen, but variable-rate mortgages are still a cheaper option than they were a year ago.

  • Canadian Consumer Having A Credit Card!

Credit cards will likely remain where they are, at least for the time being. Given the state of the economy, credit-card companies are concerned about potentially higher delinquency rates. Their write-offs tend to be higher in tough economic times.

  • Canadian Consumer Having A Car Loan!

Car industry is going through a hard economic situation globally and so does here in Canada, although sluggish export results low production, high prices and cut jobs but government has taken timely steps to improve its efficiency in a way domestic sales on car prices will stay at moderate level. So, car loans seem to have remained fairly steady.

  • Canadian Consumer Having A Lines Of Credit!

Reduction in the prime rate leads to immediate savings for those who have variable rate mortgages, lines of credit and other floating interest rate loans. If your line of credit is tied to the prime rate and you are paying interest only, your payment will decrease. If you have a set payment, more of it will be applied to the principal and less to the interest.

  • Is It A Best Time For The Investors!

In trading business, your success depends on your purchase, that’s why big companies have more margins in their sales than the smaller companies because they cant get the benefits associated with the bulk purchases. Anyhow, it’s a best time especially for those who are having a right investment plan or opportunity where they can reinvest their borrowed money on such low interest rate. Although, most of the people will also planning to take advantage of more low interest rate by a half-percentage point which is expected to fall in June 10, 2009. But remember this next interest rate fall is not confirmed because it will only implemented if economy required to keep moving. But if you have a right investment today, tomorrow you may not, so don’t pass it away I guess I can see it being somewhat attractive.

Understanding Your Credit Report and Credit Score

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Tips on How to Keep Your Credit Report, Credit Score and Credit Profile Healthy!

Your credit report and score is the most important financial instrument that requires you to apply for the loan you are looking for. It also determines the interest rate credit lenders will be charging you, your highest score will awards you the most economical rate and your poor score results in even dismisal of your loan application.

The Department of Finance’s rule changes for high-ratio mortgages mean that a prospective borrower’s credit rating is more important than ever when it comes to qualifying for a mortgage loan when their down payment is less than 20% of the value of the property.  Consumers need to be aware of how their credit is evaluated by lenders, and how they can work to avoid so-called bruised credit – people with a lower credit score can find themselves paying a higher interest rate, or even denied access to certain types of personal loans.

A credit report is a detailed history of how consistently you meet your financial obligations, and provides an impression of your financial health based on your credit history and past behaviour.  A credit score is a three-digit number, usually between 300 and 900, representing your overall credit-worthiness, based on personal information from your credit report and other available sources.

Both your credit report and score are important.  When deciding whether or not to grant a personal loan, credit card, mortgage loan and other lines of credit, lenders refer to an applicant’s credit report and score, along with a range of other factors such as income, employment history, business and size of down payment.

The higher your score the more likely you are to be approved for a personal loan including mortgage and receive favourable rates because the lender considers you to be a better credit risk.  Several factors are used by the two available credit agencies in Canada, Equifax Canada and TransUnion Canada to calculate credit scores:

  • Debt payment history.
  • Amounts owed compared to your current credit limits with lenders.
  • How often you seek new credit.
  • Length of time you have had credit accounts.
  • Type of credit, such as car loans, business loans, student loans, lines of credit, credit cards.

Recent news from the financial industry over the past few weeks has highlighted the fact that for many borrowers nowadays, one’s credit rating is an even more important factor when it comes to accessing personal loan including mortgage credit.  By taking a few basic precautions, consumers can protect their credit report and credit score, and increase their access to better rates and a better choice of loan products.

Here are a number of steps that you can take to keep your credit report and credit score healthy:

  • Pay off your debts on time – always meet due dates.
  • Don’t maximum out your credit cards – up to 50% of a card’s credit limit is favorable.
  • Borrow only the amount you can afford to repay.
  • Numerous inquiries for consumer-type credit in a short period of time can worsen your score – make out only necessary inquiries.
  • Check your credit report with regular intervals for errors, omission and mistakes to avoid unexpected problems to your credit profile.

You can obtain a copy of your credit file free from Equifax Canada (1-800-465-7166) and Trans Union Canada (1-800-663-9980).  However, these free credit reports will not contain a credit score and it’s a good idea to get both the reports.  You can order more comprehensive reports including your credit score from these companies, for a small fee.

Bank of Canada Keeps Interest Rates at 3%

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

OTTAWA July 15, Bank of Canada warns of inflation and slow growth that’s why bank holds steady on key interest rate that is 3%. Anyway, The combination of slow growth and high inflation is a difficult puzzle for policy makers because battling one ailment exacerbates the other.

There are various schools of thought who have been predicting on this critical issue but it’ll be normal soon, because most of the problems are seem external rather than internal economical situations. Anyhow, most of the economists already expected the same solution from the Bank of Canada like bank left its key interest rate unchanged.

In accordance with the Bank’s announcement, lending institutions in Canada are expected to keep their prime-lending rate unchanged and steady too. The prime rate used by lenders is the base rate that they use in pricing loans to their most creditworthy customers. Variable-rate mortgages, variable-rate credit cards, and home equity lines of credit are typically linked to a lender’s prime rate. Anyhow, Pricing for fixed-rate mortgages is not directly affected by bank’s decision.
