It is also a good idea to use payday loans for paying credit card bills, especially when the bills’ due dates are a couple of weeks before your next paycheck and you don’t have the money needed to settle them. Ins Read more…
Investors in more than $1 billion of “callable” 10-year bank bonds look set to be paid five years early as banks seek to avoid paying interest rates in excess of 8 per cent.
Kiwibank last week paid out investors in its $75 million, 10-year, 7.72 per cent coupon bond five years early. Early this month, ANZ National “called” a $250 million, 7.60 per cent, bond.
Bonds that are callable mean the issuer can repay, or call, the bond before its maturity date, or reset the coupon rate.
A handful of other banks, each of them paying interest rates set in 2007 before the onset of the global financial crisis, have reset dates coming up.
At today’s rates, investor returns would roughly halve if banks opted to reset, but standard market practise is to pay out investors early.
Three banks – BNZ, ANZ National and ASB Bank – have $1.07 billion in bonds that are callable in the next few months.
“It seems more probable that these deals will be called,” said Mark Brown, director of fixed interest at Harbour Asset Management.

The global bond market offers US-based investors the opportunity to add both higher yields and diversity to their fixed income portfolios. With current US Treasuries and Bank CD’s yielding returns that are lower than than even the current inflation rate, income investors are increasingly being forced to either continue losing buying power “safely,” or to hunt for alternate (added risk) fixed income investments in a jungle of choices. When you add together the US dollar’s declining value against other currencies and the Federal Reserves tremendous increase of money supply, mix in the friction and fighting by both political parties over what should be agreed upon as a “workable plan” to start addressing this nation’s large and growing debt woes, here at Durig Capital we have good reason to believe that acquiring global debt instruments with significantly higher yields may be a vital ingredient to help reduce risk by providing some unique diversification while being likely to greatly enhance fixed income cash flow.

Dear Chairwomen,
Honourable Members of the European Parliament,
The organisation of this hearing once again illustrates to what extent the launch of the euro has brought about economic interconnectedness: in view of the strong implications for the stability of the euro area as a whole, putting Greece back on its feet is in the very interest of all of us. Political interconnectedness could also hardly be better demonstrated than today. Domestic policies have become European – which fully justifies to discuss them at European level, both in executive and parliamentary fora.
The Greek economic adjustment and its social implications are painful: there is no doubt about this. The question, however, is: how did Greece get in such a situation and does it have any alternative? The major effort of adjustment reflects the severity of the macroeconomic imbalances that have accumulated over years in Greece. M
