NCUA proposes eased TDR reporting | NAFCU

The rule would allow credit unions to report TDRs based on their original contract terms, removing the current requirement that TDRs are reported as delinquent for six months based on the original contract terms. In addition, credit unions will not need to maintain TDRs in nonaccrual status until they receive six consecutive payments. NAFCU has persistently sought for some time to mitigate the burden that each of these two current requirement pose for credit unions. **** Read More At; NCUA proposes eased TDR reporting NAFCU

Is another housing bubble brewing?

While there have been fears expressed by some of a repeat of the housing bubble that led to the housing crisis just over a decade ago, numerous real estate analysts say they believe the market fundamentals are much stronger now and that the sharp increase in home prices reflects low rates, a lack of inventory, and demographics. To be sure, the market is hot in many markets, with home sellers receiving multiple cash offers, often over the listed price, on homes. Some analysts, including those at Swiss banking giant UBS, have published charts showing how home prices are outstripping both wages and rents, reported USA Today. Home prices have appreciated more than 60% since November 2012, incomes have only appreciated by 20% and rents by 30% over the same time period, the report added. “But unlike the real estate boom that led to the Great Recession, this nationwide price spike is not being fueled by a wholesale collapse in lender ethics,” USA Today reported “There aren't any low-doc o...

Yes, right now, all the activity is in stablecoins, but we’re going to link the two in a safe and sound way.” During the discussion, Long cited Citi’s upgraded forecast for the sector, which now projects between $3 trillion and $4 trillion in stablecoins outstanding by 2030, according to Yahoo Finance, which noted Long believes even that range is far too conservative. “Those numbers are still too low,” she said. “I think they’re way too low.” According to Long, the innovation lies in embedding blockchain technology directly into the banking infrastructure rath...

Sunday Reading - The gold standard, explained

  Gold Standard       The gold standard, explained A gold standard is a system where a country’s currency is pegged to, and can be converted into, a fixed amount of gold.

At the time, if gold was priced at $100 an ounce, each dollar  rep...

Email and Text Message Etiquette
