Home loans to get cheaper as RBI cuts repo rate by 25 bps

The RBI reduced its policy interest rate by a widely expected 25 basis points on Tuesday, taking comfort from cooling inflation as it made the first cut in nine months to support an economy headed for its slowest growth in a decade. The Reserve Bank of India cut the policy repo rate by 25 basis points to 7.75 percent, in line with a Reuters poll earlier this month. The RBI unexpectedly also reduced the cash reserve ratio (CRR), the share of deposits banks must keep with the central bank by 25 bps to 4.00 percent, which will infuse an additional 180 billion rupees into the banking system. India's headline inflation rate moderated to a three-year low of 7.18 percent in December, and the central bank said there was likelihood that inflation would remain rangebound around current levels heading into 2013/14 fiscal year starting April. "This provides space, albeit limited, for monetary policy to give greater emphasis to growth risks," the central bank said in its quarterly monetary policy review. Bond and stock markets were largely unmoved as dealers had already priced in a quarter percentage point rate cut. The 10-year bond yield was flat at around 7.87 percent. India's main NSE index was also flat, with the bank sub-index up 0.2 percent, paring initial stronger gains. The Indian rupee strengthened to 53.79 to the dollar from around 53.84 before the decision. "RBI has not abandoned its cautious stance, stressing on the 'calibrated and limited' nature of rate support (from) hereon," said Radhika Rao, economist, Forecast Pte in Singapore. "The scale of rate cuts is closely tied to the government's sustained efforts to correct the twin imbalances and moderating inflation trajectory." The central bank however reiterated its concerns over a bloated fiscal and current account deficits (CAD) adding that its pro-growth stance will be conditioned by the management of the risks posed by them. "Financing the CAD with increasingly risky and volatile flows increases the economy's vulnerability to sudden shifts in risk appetite and liquidity preference, potentially threatening macroeconomic and exchange rate stability," the RBI said. Since a 50 basis point cut in April, the central bank had kept interest rates on hold as inflation stayed stubbornly high, ignoring repeated calls from the government for a cut. Having grown at near-double-digit pace before the Lehman Brothers crisis, the economy has suffered a rapid deceleration. The RBI cut its GDP growth forecast for Asia's third-largest economy to 5.5 percent for the current fiscal year, from 5.8 percent previously, and lowered its projection for headline inflation in March to 6.8 percent from 7.5 percent earlier.

Finding The Best Health Insurance Policy

Insuring Your Health - A Guide To Finding The Best Health Insurance Policy For You! Few things will make you feel more like the "little guy" than trying to find the best health insurance (and an affordable one as well!). You practically need an advanced medical and legal degree just to begin to understand it! This article is designed to empower you with valuable information you can use to make the best possible decisions regarding the very confusing world of health insurance! If you have to go out of network, find out upfront what your costs are going to be and see if anything can be negotiated. Doctors tend to overbill insurance companies just because of the difficulty in knowing what will be paid and what won't. If you are paying out of pocket, let your provider know and see if they can offer you any discounts. If you and your spouse work and both of your employers offer health insurance, make sure that you are only covered by one plan. There is no advantage to having dual coverage because you can seldom collect from both insurance plans. So there is no sense in paying the extra premium for second coverage. Before signing documents committing yourself to a certain insurance policy, make sure to read the fine print. There may be details to the policy (like the health insurance rates) that the insurance provider did not tell you about. These details could cost you a significant amount of money, and prevent you from getting the proper care. Increase your out-of-pocket expenses. The majority of insurance companies have an option with lower monthly premiums if you are prepared to pay higher out-of-pocket payments like a yearly deductible or more for prescription medications. This is a great plan for someone who is in general good health and doesn't anticipate any major medical bills in the near future. Hopefully this article has given you more reason to feel capable and in control of your health insurance future than like the "little guy" who is at the mercy of the big corporate machines. When it comes to getting the best health insurance, you must arm yourself with knowledge and put it to practical use because your health is far too important for anything but the best that you can provide for it!

I Made a Late Payment. Will it Affect My Credit Score?

Let’s say you made one of those big no-no credit mistakes. You went out of town on vacation for a week, came back home and realized you totally forgot to pay your credit card bill. It happens all of the time. Chances are you are okay. The worst thing that may happen is you have to pay a late fee, but more than likely the creditor won’t report your one-time late payment to the credit agencies. Most lenders and creditors will not report bad repayment history until you are 90 days late, and if they do not report it, it does not end up on your credit report. Since your credit score is calculated by the information on your credit report, you’re in the clear. But what if they do and that late payment ends up on your credit report. Sadly, if you have an otherwise good credit score, this will affect you the most. It could knock 100 points off your credit score – ouch! Late payments by people who already have a crummy credit score won’t get dinged nearly as bad. This may actually not be entirely true though. The way FICO is calculating credit scores going forward now gives some forgiveness to people who made that one-time mistake, but will further penalize people who have a history of not paying their bills. The best solution to make sure this does not happen is to set up automated bill paying. That way, no matter what, your bills get paid. If, however, you have a history of making late payments, you’re in a bit more trouble. You’ll wan to get a copy of your credit report and take some of the steps to increase your credit score, which you can do completely on your own.

Why Is The Euro So Strong?

The euro remains very attractive against the pound and the dollar despite the ongoing problems presented by European Debt and the probable bailouts or defaults. I have read today of a report by the BBC which stated two thirds of European economists surveyed expect Greece to default on their debt. Last year such an announcement would have had the markets in absolute turmoil, indeed much of last years weakness on the euro was due to the debt crisis. This year despite the well publicised problems in Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain the Euro remains a very unattractive prospect for those looking at buying overseas property. This is due to a number of factors: – EFSF – The European Financial Stability Facility is designed to act a safety net for indebted European nations. The fund has recently been made permanent and has given the markets the confidence that the ECB and stronger Eurozone members are serious about coming to the financial aid of the weaker members – a criticism levied at many members. As discussed European Debt concerns had been a major weight on the euro last year but now the issue is well known and appears to be being dealt with confidence has been restored. It is worth noting that longer term this is likely to be the issue that could present Euro weakness as concerns arise over the inability of the indebted nations to repay their debts. – Interest Rate Decisions – The UK looked almost certain to have a rate hike in the first quarter of this year and the pound made strong gains on the euro as investors positioned themselves for the event. We then had a barrage of data releases showing that in all probability the UK wasn't ready for a hike and as such these positions were unwound and led to sterling weakness. Conversely the Eurozone has been floating the prospects of an interest rate hike as soon as next month. With unemployment falling it appears the Eurozone may have turned a corner and will be the first to stomach a rise in the base rate. This has compounded the problems for the GBPEUR rate as investors have taken up stronger positions on the Euro. The US economy whilst growing is still incredibly weak and due to the amount of cheap loans issued to stimulate recovery cannot afford to go raising rates. They are still administering the latest round of Quantitative Easing and will need to fully assess the effects before committing to a rate hike. - Economic Outlooks - The economic outlook for the Euro has improved this year with enouraging signs in manufacturing and factory orders. Unemployment is falling and the overall picture remains bouyant despite the problems of the PIGS. The UK is suffering from very low growth and the immediate future does not look rosy either. It could be months or a year before the economy is deemed strong enough to be able to handle a rate hike and even then if the Euro has already had one, it is unlikely to be a major mover. Despite the grim news for those buying Euros, such a trend is excellent news for those selling euros. Movements this month of over 5% in your favour are presenting a great opportunity to maximise those property sales.

When will the Euro weaken?

The Euro has been under huge pressure recently as a result of the debt crisis. Despite this the Euro remains very strong as a currency which often has clients asking me when will the Euro weaken? This is normally in relation to the GBPEUR rate. With the well publicised nature of the debt crisis this is a good question to be asking. After all this time last year the rate was in the 1.20's.. We are now a year later and the debt crisis has only got worse. Why are we still at 1.13-1.15 and not 1.20 or even 1.30? Interest Rates – With the Eurozone offering investors a 1.5% return on their investment in the Euro, the currency is attractive to buy which keeps it strong. The higher a countries interest rate, the more investment it receives, and hence the stronger it grows. The raising of interest rates is a sign to the wider world that the Eurozone economy is expanding and can allow an interest rate hike. Compare this to the UK or USA who have 0.5% and 0-0.25% interest rates respectively. Looking specifically at the GBPEUR rate the sterling side is weak due to low interest rates. You only need to look at the weakness of the pound against most other currencies to understand why it is also weak against the Euro. The prospect of an interest rate hike is again being pushed into 2012 for the UK, and the Federal Reserve have said rates could be on hold until 2013! Can your currency transfer wait a year or even two in the hope things ‘might' improve? Germany – When investors look to the Euro they look at the whole economy and not just individual nations. So the poor state of the PIIGS, whilst a major concern is not the whole story. Despite some worse than expected GDP figures coming out today for Germany, Germany has a very healthy economy with very strong exports. The long term expectations are that this will continue. Contrast this to the UK with a Manufaturing and Industrial sector in decline, and a financial sector tarred by the global financial crisis. Economic and Political Will – There is a massive political and economic will behind the Euro. The backdrop to the current arrangement is a long bloody history and the original idea behind the economic union was to prevent the countries going to war again. To get to where we are today has taken decades of negotiation and concensus which I cannot see being undone quickly. Whilst coming under immense pressure for not acting decisively enough, the Eurozone leaders also have provided the financial back up to deal with the crisis. There are current questions over whether the bailout funds will manage Italy, hence the recent volatility, but the ECB have tools to dampen the volatility. Just last week they bought up €22bn worth of bonds, one of the reasons the GBPEUR rate has come back to 1.13. Today Merkel and Sarkozy are meeting in Paris and this could further help the Euro. Eurobonds – Presently each Eurozone member issues bonds themselves. Bonds are used by governments to finance the day to day running of the country. By auctioning off debt on a promise to pay back in the future, investors provide credit and liquidity to keep the governments functioning. The idea of a Eurobond would be to consolidate the members borrowing, thereby reducing the amount of interest on bonds weaker nations have to pay because they are weak. Germany have said they will not back a Eurobond but only because they feel the indebted nations (PIIGS) don't have their house in order. It is forseeable that Germany would back the Eurobonds if the PIIGS can show themselves to be able to benefit from the Eurobond scheme. I personally cannot see how the weaker nations can manage long term in the current state. I feel the Eurobond is one answer to Europe's problems and if announced down the line will further help the Euro. Despite the huge uncertainty in the market the Euro remains strong. Europe is the UK's biggest trading partner and we have invested heavily in their debt. For better or for worse we are part of Europe. If you believe the Eurozone will collapse, or even hope that it will because you feel suddenly the GBPEUR rate will improve, I would advise caution. The collapse of the Eurozone or further major shocks will hurt the UK economy which is already under huge strain. In my opinion getting the best rate is about setting realistic expectations over your time frame and being ready to pounce when things are favourable. Part of our service is to not only offer award winning exchange rates, but also keep clients informed and updated so that they have all the information to make informed decisions. If you have any currency requirements for the future – even months or years away, I can help offer assistance in making sure you benefit from market movements not suffer.

India Inc’s Q3 profits to grow 26% on lower costs

After battling slowing growth for nearly two years, companies listed on the BSE and NSE are likely to post an increase in profit after tax (PAT) of 25.9% year-on-year (y-o-y ) for the third quarter (October-December) of the current financial year. According to estimates, India Inc would post earnings growth of over 18% for the second successive quarter for the first time in two years. The growth in profitability would be largely aided by a sharp reduction in expenses, data compiled by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) showed. Total expenses of companies would increase 10.1% y-o-y in the December quarter, the slowest pace since the meltdown in the aftermath of the global financial crisis in early 2009. "We believe that the earnings downgrade cycles have come to an end. It would be more visible in the (January to) March quarter," says Sunil Singhania, head of equities, Reliance Capital Asset Management.
