Financial Markets

Finance markets are classified as primary (direct) and secondary (indirect). The primary markets deal in new finance claims or new securities. On the other hand, secondary markets deal in securities already issued or existing or outstanding. More often the classification is into money and capital markets. Money market deals with short-term claims having a period of maturity of one year or less and the latter does so with long-term claims having period of maturity of more than one year.

Stock Markets
A market in which shares of stock are bought and sold is called stock market. The word ‘stock’, in American usage, means equity or ownership in a corporation. A share is the basic unit of a company’s capital, which it tries to raise from the stock market. When you own a stock, you are referred to as a share or stockholder. A stock shows that you own a small fraction of a corporation; hence if you buy stock in the Pepsi Corporation and they come out with a ‘hot’ new drink, then you get to share the profits. A stock also gives you the right to make decisions that may influence the company. Each stock you own gives you a vote/s, so the more stocks you own, the more decision-making power you have.

Real Estate Insurance

Insurance requirements have become an integral part of real estate and loan transactions, they should be included in any comprehensive discussion of real estate finance. Each transaction will require the purchase of title insurance, and mortgage insurance will require every homeowner. In some situations, the lender may also require flood insurance and / or mortgage insurance. Even buyers condominiums and townhouses will have other insurance options to consider.

Title insurance is designed to eliminate most of the problems created by attorneys abstract and abstract opinion. Title insurance check all recorded documents related to a specific property to produce an insurance policy that covers the buyer, lender, or both, of the defect to the title. Title insurance policies are now quite uniform, and insurance companies have the financial resources to retain and compensate their insured.

Owner’s Policy
The owner’s policy insures a purchaser that the title to the property was transferred free of any defects, except those which are listed as exceptions. The settlement agent will obtain and record the documents required in the title commitment. In most real estate transactions, the seller will pay for the owner’s policy. The buyer pays for the lender’s policy and endorsements. The owner’s policy is valid as long as the ownership of the property remains the same. Transferring ownership of the property to another ownership entity, such as a family trust or a spouse by a quit claim deed may void the title policy. Whenever possible, the owner should use a special warranty deed instead of a quit claim deed to facilitate changes in ownership. This will keep the title insurance intact.

Where Does Company Money Go?

Have you ever heard “Where do my money go?” question? I dare to bet, you have—maybe more than once if you share an office with your boss. Your boss is not simply asking about how you spend the company cash, he/she is questioning how the management (and everybody in the company) use company’s asset. Such question shows either your boss simply does not really get a clue upon reading the finance statement you present; or he/she got frustrated when looking at negative bottom line on the income statement.

For years I have reviewed budgets, statements of finance prepared, and comparing both, at the end of each month, quarter and year. Often when I scan these in the presence of a peer or a client, they joke that I use sixth-sense (kind of metaphysic skill) things in catching even a small problem lied behind number on a finance – statement. The truth is I have no specific magic, nor any unusual skill to do that. If anything, I have an accumulation of experience gained from looking at so many of them which is not fancy days at all.

So, how do I do that, you may wonder as well.

First, I look for things that stick out like a sort thumb: Is something on the income statement way out of line? If sales revenue is way up and gross profits are not, that sticks out. Somewhere along the way, profit margins took some kind of a hit. This is usually caused by increases in costs, reductions in prices, a shift in the mix of what was sold, or to whom it was sold, from higher profit products (services) to lower profit ones.
