Infrastructure Development Finance Co. (IDFC)

IDFC is back on track in 2009-10, largely led by traction in fee-based income, though core business also showed improved performance. Net interest income from infrastructure lending maintained last year’s growth rate of 34 per cent year-on-year (yo-y), aided by improved net interest margins of 2.8 per cent. Non-interest income rose 55 per cent to Rs 950 crore after falling marginally in 2008-09 due to increase in the equity book, jump in assets under management (led by mutual funds) and strong momentum in capital markets. Net profit rose 42 per cent to Rs 1,062 crore, as provision for loans declined 15 per cent due to near-zero non-performing assets. IDFC’s balance sheet size grew 13 per cent to Rs 33,562 crore - almost double the growth rate of 7 per cent clocked in 2008-09 - as loan book expanded 21.5 per cent to Rs 25,000 crore. Gross approvals tripled, while gross disbursements jumped 60 per cent, mainly on account of alower base of last year. The widening gap between disbursem...

So dear friends you are wrong, this is just the start, the Zimbabwe thing alerts us, but noone cares about that time, stilla very less are concerned about this. No problems at all, soon you need not to worry about this, because nothing would be left to get worried about. Today India's Sensex closed below 10,000, so its jus a begining, recession is coming.

It is really time to take pro active steps to avoid a painful time in the next two years which is how long the is expected to last. Suggestions: 1.

Sell any stocks you can even at lower pr...

Swiss Bank

Banking in Switzerland is characterized by stability, privacy and protection of clients' assets and information. The country's tradition of bank secrecy, which dates to the Middle Ages, was first codified in a 1934 law.All banks in Switzerland are regulated by the Federal Banking Commission (FBC), which derives its authority from a series of federal statutes. Opening a Swiss bank account too is no big deal. All you need is a valid passport and $10 million and you can go either directly to the bank or use a broker,since $10 million is the minimum balance one should have to open an account in Swiss Bank. There is a lot of paper work involved but nothing that will scare depositors away. Once an account — either numbered, which costs more, or with your name — is created, you are assured of complete privacy. Swiss bankers are not even supposed to reveal that you are a client, let alone the details of your account. So once you have a Swiss bank account, all you have to do is to ensur...
