Business Debt Consolidation Loan: Overview and Benefits

April 25, 2015 by Reporter Leave a Comment

When you run a business, you definitely need to look at the revenue figures. You should reduce the expenditure for increasing the profit margin. Business debt consolidation loans can be helpful for some of the merchants. But a proper debt consolidation review must be done before choosing the particular plan. Now, let us discuss how the business debt consolidation loans can be helpful for a business.

Organized Loans: The business debt consolidation loans are specially customized for the small business owners. Managing the accounts may seem to be a difficult task for the small business owners. Starting from purchasing at wholesale, maintaining the inventory and payroll checks etc; things become difficult if more than five or six credit accounts are running. This loan can therefore help in organizing all your business activities in a proper way.

Less Is More: The debt consolidation loan can prove that less is more. When you possess few things for managing, your business activities become more efficient. In this process, the business owners can concentrate more on the essential things which is required for the growth of the company.

Single Loan: The debt consolidation loan is the single loan that helps the businessman to pay several business debts. You are therefore, required to pay only a single payment per month. So, all of your accounts can be consolidated into a single one.

Stress Reliever: These loans can act as good stress relievers in times of your financial crisis. When the due dates are coming near to you and you are receiving heaps of statement letters, you will not be able to focus on your business goals. Instead you will be stressed out for the repayment solution. Now, the business debt consolidation can be very helpful in such cases.

Stop Harassment Calls: You can easily stop the annoying calls from your creditors with the help of the debt consolidation loans. It can easily manage the repayment and thus those unwanted calls can be easily stopped.

Low Interest Rate: You should reduce the expenditure of your firm through the debt consolidation loans. They generally provide lower interest rates which can be very useful for the small business owners. You cannot really afford high interest rates such as 20% as it will eat up your profit as soon as possible. You should definitely go for the fixed interest rates of the single loan.

Improve Credit Score: The consolidation loans will definitely improve your credit score. When you possess various loans you may tend to pay late for some of them. This will definitely decrease your credit score. But with the help of the consolidation loan, if you only have one account, it is more likely that you will pay on time. This, in turn it helps to increase your credit score substantially.

Experienced Consultant: For taking up the loan, you should take advice from the experienced consultant. The qualified consultant will definitely suggest you the most appropriate business debt consolidation loan. The skilled professionals will restructure your loan terms by providing you some breathing space. This will help in getting your sales back on track and can help in the timely payment to the creditors and the suppliers.

Reputed Company: You should opt for your debt consolidation loans with a reputed company. You can take reference from your friends or colleagues who have experienced their service previously. Going for the companies offering low interest rates and longer repayment time can always be a wise decision.

The start-up business owners should not involve themselves in huge debts. They should keep cash at hand as much as possible. If you have saved your company using the debt consolidation loan, never put it back to the similar situation again!

Is Silver Surpassing Gold?

January 24, 2013 by Reporter Leave a Comment

Some long-term silver analysts are predicting a huge run on silver over the next few years. They also believe that the gap between the price of gold and the price of silver will be narrowed significantly. These silver bulls base their projections on historical data as well as current trends. This is good news to those of us that are fond of buying silver. After all, considering the price of gold, silver is one of the few remaining commodities that the average investor can physically hold in any large quantity. So why are these silver bulls so optimistic? Most likely it’s related to the driving force of all commodities: supply and demand.

Supply Gold & Silver

For the first time in the history of modern mining, many of the world’s leading mines are coming up empty. It is estimated that 95% of all silver ever produced has already been consumed and unfortunately most of it ends up in our landfills. If the current supply of silver were evenly distributed among everyone on earth, there would only be enough for each of us to have 1/3 of one ounce. For many years now, the world has been using more silver than it has been producing, yet many people continue to assume that silver is abundant. That hasn’t been the case since the industrial revolution. Major government stockpiles from the past have slowly been sold off for industrial use. For years now the annual global mining production has not been able to keep pace with consumption, both investment and industrial.

Industrial Demand

As opposed to gold’s limited industrial applications, there are literally ten thousand industrial applications for silver.

It is essential to the production of medical, telecommunications, computer and automotive equipment, to name just a few. Silver has many useful qualities; the most valuable to the manufacturing sector is its unsurpassed qualities as a conductor of electricity. As electrical power continues its growing dominance around the globe, the industrial demand for silver is expected to continue to grow dramatically as well. Also, considering China’s mammoth appetite for precious metals that are essential to its continued dominance of product manufacturing, many insiders are projecting an even steeper rise in demand in the short term.

Investment Demand

Just like industrial demand, investment demand for silver is also at record levels and growing steadily. As more and more investors continue to embrace precious metals, many of them are seeing the incredible potential of silver. According to Bloomberg News, investors currently hold over 18,000 tons of silver-backed exchange-traded products, which is the equivalent of over eight months of global mining output. Morgan Stanley and Barclays PLC are predicting that investors will likely buy another 500 tons in 2013. Another sign of growing investment demand is the incredible popularity of the U.S. Mint’s silver Eagle coin. The mint is barely able to keep up with demand and there have been several occasions recently when the mint had to ration sales.

Even though gold continues to perform well and will likely remain the dominant precious metal for investment purposes, silver is likely to close the gap considerably in the very near future. When you consider the dwindling supply and growing demands from investors and manufacturers, you can begin to understand why the silver bulls are so optimistic.

Wrap up – Diggers & Dealers 2011 Conference

August 5, 2011 by Reporter 1 Comment

Some of the highlights of the just wrapped up Diggers and Dealers Mining Conference Held in the gold-prospecting hub of Kalgoorlie, Western australia from 01 Aug- 03 August 2011.

Diggers & Dealers Conference 2011- Highlights

For a forum that started with a dozen blokes in a pub in the West Australian mining town of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Diggers and Dealers has morphed into the largest mining conference of its type in Australia and the third largest in the world.

The dealing and digging at Kalgoorlie WA

Iron ore company Gindalbie Metals’ has earned it the Dealer of the Year award at the Diggers and Dealers conference in Kalgoorlie due to managing a clever relationship with Chinese steel maker Ansteel

The digger of the year was WA-based miner Independence group which has made major developments on their mines near Kambalda in the Goldfields.

Small miners complained that the big miners BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto, and Xstrata – will be able to manipulate the MRRT’s rules to claim depreciation of their existing multi-billion-dollar mining assets against their expected MRRT liability, and almost completely negate the effect of the tax on their profits.

Gold miner Ramelius Resources is cashed up and ready for acquisitions. Ramelius’ shares have jumped more than 300 per cent in 2010/11, from 39 cents.

The dealermaker award went to Ivanhoe Capital Corporation for its success in developing gold and coal projects in Mongolia and Queensland.

KEITH JONES, MANAGING PARTNER DELOITTE (WESTERN AUSTRALIA), on china’s growth

"The going out policy initiated by the Chinese government at the turn of the century resulted in a surge of direct Chinese investment, up from $500 million in 2000 to $59 billion in 2010. While Australia remains one of the preferred destinations for Chinese investments, other regions such as Africa and Latin America have seen accelerated inflows of Chinese capital over the past three years."

Joseph Riggio, of Casimir Capital, says cashed up investors in New York, Boston and Chicago want to diversify out of the floundering US dollar and are increasingly looking to ASX listed miners to do that. He said "There’s a perception that Australian companies represent a better value than their Canadian counterparts because of their focus on cash flow,"
