The use of credit cards that allow you to “fill their pockets” and increase Chile’s debt. Some experts even talk about that could mimic the financial crisis that hit U.S. consumers and that caused the sub prime crisis we all now know.

Of this debt, approximately 24% are in arrears, which is about 2180 million dollars. Of this amount, 1885 million related to commercial firms (86.5%) and 295 million dollars to the bank plastics (13.5%).
This project aims to prohibit senators commercial house and bank and financial institutions issue credit cards and without consultation. That is, only able to provide the type of card when someone has shown a willingness to apply.
The initiative also provides credit cards to prevent minors without written permission from their parents. Meanwhile, according to the National Institute of Youth, Injure, 1.2 million young people between the year 15 and 29 are outstanding.
A financial institution is one of the entities that make up the financial system. Financial institutions are commercial banks, central banks, mortgage corporations and / or savings and housing, stock markets, etc. A financial asset is the right of the possessor to receive the issuer’s future cash flows.
Is a document that creates obligations and rights, On behalf of the sender (a person who issues or “sell” the document) creates an obligation to fulfill a promise to pay the amount agreed · For part of the holder (person who bought the document) generates a right to receive such payments. The concept of financial asset, very briefly, is associated with two fundamental concepts in finance. A profit or yield concept and a concept of risk.
The holder of an active course looking for benefits, getting more money for himself, and runs certain risks such as loss of interest or even loss of capital invested, if things are not as good as they should be. Financial assets are generally of two types 1. Shares or any part of a business. 2. Debt (government bonds and private sector = ON) One of the most important financial asset is somehow allowing the risk not to concentrate on one type of fixed asset investments. A person who has money available, can be easily diversified their own activity to the purchase of other financial assets, and ultimately also the risk by diversifying their businesses in general. Maintains its core business, adding the possibility of having other income from other commercial or financial activities.
A financial market is a place where no physical or financial assets are traded. Main attributes of a Financial Market:
• Allows the pricing: A market includes various forms of pricing. For example, pricing in a loud voice, as used in the Stock Exchange or the Securities Market, or electronic and telephone trading (MAE).
· Provides greater liquidity: If there is a refuge or a place where we have the possibility of certain transactions with several operators and not having to search through our own means at our party.
• Low transaction costs, to be sufficiently developed financial markets, transaction costs are reduced significantly.
If you are in any of these situations, you here are some ways through which you can get money immediately, legally, and almost without any effort:
Borrowing
The first alternative to get money quickly is to apply for a loan.
To do this, we could apply for a loan to a bank or financial institution, using the facilities that they now offer to extend credit, but this alternative is not recommended if you do not need the money real urgency, and if we’re not confident we can return the money on time.
An alternative to banks or financial institutions, is to borrow money from relatives or friends that we do not put so much pressure to return the money in time, we do not charge interest or at least the interest charge us a minimum.
Doing a garage sale
Another alternative to get money quickly is to make a garage sale, which is to sell items you do not use or that we had, taking as point of sale our front yard or garage.
To do this, we would review our entire house (especially the room we use as a warehouse), mark or would make a list of all the things that we not use or over and that we could sell, and then would pull the front yard or garage and would sell the weekend.
A tip about a garage sale is that we are not so greedy to set prices, but seek to sell quickly all these things that do not use, and get much needed cash.
Sell on Internet auction sites
An alternative to the garage sale is to sell things that do not use or that we over the Internet through auction sites such as eBay and MercadoLibre.
Just a matter of registering for free at any of these sites and ads through which we will offer our stuff, trying to design a good ad that includes images of quality, a clear description of the product, and clear information on price, ways payment and delivery methods.
Sell a personal asset
If we have some important personal assets or property, for example, some property, a car, or jewelry, there’s probably time to get rid of it and obtain the money we need.
To find a buyer, we could try to sell via Internet auction sites, put our ad on a page of ads on the Internet, or placing an ad in a local newspaper.
Financial assets are typically short-term. A promissory note is a document that reflects the commitment to pay .Authority (which requires funding) for precise reverse fork) to the date of maturity. Therefore, a note is both a financing instrument for the issuer and investment for the holder. The notes may be issued by public authorities, credit institutions or companies, and are always short term. Investors can operate with the notes in three different ways:
* Subscription to the primary market in fixing the price, the discount and the expiration date of the note.
* Buying and selling in the secondary market for notes and posts encirculación. This mode of operation and the earlier they are called “to maturity”.
* Purchase and repurchase. Thus, the investor can invest their funds to the period that interests you. The notes are traded at auction and the price is discounted based on the contract and the time remaining to maturity.
Treasury Bills
Treasury bills with maturities of three to six months or a year are emitted into the sequent, usually fortnightly auctions. Treasury bills may be subject to double operations, which are two purchases, tied the opposite sign, one spot and one at the agreed time. In a double operation the buyer of a Treasury bill is obligated to resell the same person within a period and an agreed price. Therefore, the seller in a double operation is required to repurchase the agreed price and time. In this way you can invest, or borrow funds at very short notice. The lyrics tend to offer higher returns those promissory notes and that despite
That practice has not been withholding tax, financial institutions have to report to the Treasury a list of holders. In the notes on the other hand, in addition to not make the deduction has not been to communicate the list of investors who have enjoyed with fiscal opacity.
Savings banks are responsible for one of the great paradoxes of financial history, the financial system transfers his debt to the government and rises to 50% of gross domestic product indebtedness of a country, a country that has no with a productive system itself and that the only existing wealth generation focused on the years of the “Belle Eloquent” in the soil as an inexhaustible source of speculation and wealth and today, he moved to the markets where the bank continues to speculate, by transforming the main cause of instability in the stock market and investor uncertainty.
Now, just over 24 months of Matriarchs and the urgent need to meet the convergence criteria, the government is faced with a scenario in which the search for new sources of revenue and reducing costs, occupy the first place in the list of objectives to fulfill.
In a scenario like this, science fiction as a genre, is transformed into an edge to explore and the government is considering introducing a tax on financial institutions that minimizes the impact of aid and improve the public accounts, interests mainly involve loans granted by banks, are increasingly exorbitant. And if sounds surreal, but the fact is that the reality of the Spanish financial system is the snake biting its tail. During the past two years have been benefiting from extended liquidity to 1% by the European Central Bank liquidity that should be used to revive the credit of businesses and families and, instead, has been used to finance the state that paid 3% interest. Total profit until they ran out of cash, the state and the financial system. Until the European Central Bank announced that, irrespective of economies such as Ireland, Portugal, Greece and Spain, the global situation improves and beyond the end of the first half of 2010, do not retain or aid, or official rates to 1%.
But, back to the bank tax course, nothing new on the other hand, defined as Tobin Tax since 1971, and before it is necessary to assess income councils, specifically from the banks because the savings in was another shameful act in itself due to the politicization of senior management.
The Spanish financial system today are facing a delicate situation that can no longer speculation plugging holes while the maximum is the business hub, delinquencies will fire back at the slightest upturn in the Europium and defaults will happen as closing each day they put the small and medium enterprises stifled by lack of resources and the slowness of government. The problem, the real problem is that the state depends on the bank; the state is bankrupt, the business in receivership, and families, the lucky ones, increasing the ability to save against all odds.
A country in which investment in the only item that can generate wealth, you can build a new production model, the game in R + D + I is reduced with total impunity, a country where bank financing is uncompromising response to their own benefit criteria, a country where job destruction, the collapse of production, the absence of consumption, cessation of the housing system, the end of the public pension system, and many more endless variables are systematic, not a country likely to begin the road to recovery. Without wishing to be alarmist, just analyzing the variables in the theoretical economic prism Spain is still a long way to go still in recession and, indeed, the financial system is one of those responsible for the technical bankruptcy of the company.
It might be surprising for you to hear, but the stock markets are far from being the world’s largest financial market despite the fact that the media gives most coverage to the Dow Jones and NASDAQ.
In fact, since 1973, when the currencies were allowed to free float the currency market has been increasing in volume. While once almost exclusively the province of large financial institutions and banks, online fore trading by individual speculators are becoming the hottest game in town.
Fore trading involves the world’s major currencies as the U.S. dollar, Swiss franc, euro, Japanese yen and British pound. It is a large international market which is composed of major financial institutions, businesses and governments.
Most trading is between an estimated 300 major international banks. Fore offers a form of protection for the main fenders of the daily fluctuations in currency values, by allowing them to control the risks involved with international trade.
We often hear about the importance of storing and protecting a company’s data, but more important to know what data should be safeguarded, and how. At COLT we talk about business information. This information is much more than an indefinite amount of data to be stored for later reference occasionally. This is vital information for a company, information that is used daily, often without giving more importance, but whose loss would result in closure.
The names and addresses of customers and suppliers, contact details of company personnel, financial accounts, or design ideas and intellectual property are part of the business information that companies must protect. In many cases there are also laws and regulations requiring protection, and this task falls not just IT staff but is the responsibility of all employees. Protecting this information is to safeguard the business, making it more reliable and ensure its continuity. To achieve this you have to take measures to prevent both the loss and its interruption, and prevent damage to sensitive information and systems that are vital for the proper functioning of the business.
For SMEs
SMEs working in highly competitive environments, and depend on a small customer base. Any loss of information would impact the entire business, with an effect that would be much more catastrophic than in the case of a large company. First, a disruption of their activities seriously affect the company’s financial situation further reducing an already tight cash flow. Secondly, a security breach the company would harm the reputation he has in front of customers, an effect that would last long term.
To start a business, you must have a good or a capital budget. Many people say that “if they have the money” will make their own business. Other planned a few years to save money they receive for their work, only then start building your business.

Starting a home business
Before you start by renting an office for our business, enabling why not start in our home office. Perhaps our house is not a commercial site or near our target, but if we make a good promotion and advertising, our customers look for and find us wherever we are.
Starting an Internet Business
Rather than creating a business involving the lease or purchase or shop, why not start our business on the Internet. We can create a website where we get money from advertising, or create a website or online store where we promote and sell products, will be ordered, if not fabricate ourselves, we can buy them at the time, or they are stored in small room in our house.
