分享希腊债务委员会刚刚宣布: 热度 52 寞洑 2015-6-18 01:08; All the evidence we present in this report shows that Greece not only does not have the ability to pay this debt, but also should not pay this debt first and foremost because the debt emerging from the Troika’s arrangements is a direct infringement on the fundamental human rights of the residents of Greece. Hence, we came to the conclusion that Greece should not pay this debt because it is illegal, illegitimate, and odious. 所有的证据表明，希腊不仅没有能力支付这笔债务，而且也不应支付这笔债务，因为欧盟对希腊债务的安排是对希腊人民人权的最直接侵犯。因此，希腊不应该支付这笔债务，因为它是非法的、不合规定的、令人作呕的。希腊有种，这是打算自爆了。; 1306 次阅读|19 个评论

分享关于按揭的资料之二----Disclosure Rules on Mortgage Prepayment Penalties: 热度 9 南方有嘉木 2012-12-11 08:18; 为了保护买房人的利益，美国通过了一部法案要求Lender对买房人进行必要的信息披露。该法案叫做the Truth In Lending Act。相关披露必须在收到买房人递交的按揭贷款申请后不迟于三日内寄出。根据这个法案制定的实施细则叫Regulation Z，这个Z规则是臭名昭著的复杂。这篇文章就涉及prepayment penalties的披露要求做了介绍： Many borrowers are surprised to find that they are subject to a prepayment penalty because the Truth In Lending disclosure is very poor. Borrowers should understand that if the TIL says that they "may" be subject to a penalty, it means that they will be subject to a penalty. Why Borrowers Are Often Surprised to Find That They Must Pay a Prepayment Penalty "I recently I went to refinance and was shocked to learn that I had to pay a prepayment penalty. I had never been told about this. How can they spring it on me now?" Before signing the note, you received a Truth in Lending Disclosure Statement (TIL) that said "If you pay off your loan early, you may have to pay a penalty". You signed the statement, acknowledging that you had read it. So how can you tell me now that you had never been told? Let me answer my own question. You may not have actually read the statement when you signed it. On the day you were given the TIL, you may have had a raft of other documents requiring your signature, so you felt overwhelmed and signed them all. Or, you may actually have read the TIL but the information about the prepayment penalty did not register in your mind. My answers are based on correspondence I have had with many other borrowers who told me essentially the same thing as you: they didn’t know they had a prepayment penalty until they went to refinance. The problem seems to be pervasive, and suggests that there may be something seriously amiss with the disclosure process. I believe this is indeed the case. The TIL Disclosure of Prepayment Penalties Is Horrendous "Prepayment" lies at the bottom of the TIL, the last piece of information on a long form. It reads as follows: PREPAYMENT: If you pay off your loan early, you may will not have to pay a penalty may will not be entitled to a refund of part of the finance charge This is a strange set of choices. The negative is definite, "you…will not have to pay a penalty", but the affirmative is qualified. The dictionary says that "may" refers to "a possibility"; "may" and "may not" thus mean exactly the same thing. Use of the word "may" suggests falsely that there may not be a penalty. It would not be surprising if this misleading phraseology put borrowers off their guard. Since a mortgage loan either has a prepayment penalty clause or it doesn’t, why was the first option not expressed as a "will" rather than a "may"? My guess is that lenders pointed out to the Federal Reserve (which administers TIL) that lenders need not enforce the prepayment penalty clause, and in cases where they didn’t there would be no penalty. But this is a hair-splitting point that loses sight of the purpose of disclosure, which is to put borrowers on their guard. Borrowers don’t have to be protected against the possibility that lenders won’t enforce the penalty clause. In any case, the point about enforcement would be irrelevant if the disclosure was rephrased as follows: PREPAYMENT: Your loan does does not have a prepayment penalty clause Compounding the Problem With a Garbage Disclosure The second line under "Prepayment" on the existing TIL form indicates whether or not, in the event of early payment, the lender will refund "part of the finance charge." There is no good reason for this being here. Lenders never refund fees to borrowers, and even if they did, borrowers need not be warned about the possibility of lender generosity. What this item does is cause confusion. "Finance charge" on the TIL consists of upfront fees plus cumulative interest payments over the entire term of the loan. The TIL describes it as "The dollar amount the credit will cost you." When borrowers see that they will not "be entitled to a refund of part of the finance charge", they wonder if that means that they must pay all the interest through term when they prepay the loan? I have had this question asked of me by dozens of borrowers. The answer is "no". Interest payments cease when the loan balance is paid off. The statement is meant to alert borrowers to the fact they will not get a refund of any fees paid upfront . Because this confusing and wholly unnecessary statement is placed immediately below the already weak notice of a prepayment penalty, it weakens the penalty notice further by diluting the borrower’s attention. The effectiveness of disclosure declines as the amount of other information with which it is packaged rises. The borrower trying to figure out what the refund option means is not concentrating on the penalty option. In sum, it is readily understandable why you and many other borrowers signed a TIL but were later surprised to find that you were subject to a prepayment penalty. The TIL does a wretched job of disclosing this critical piece of information. If they did it better, perhaps we would not see so many states and municipalities enacting laws restricting prepayment penalties altogether. Don’t expect improvements in the TIL anytime soon. Meanwhile, borrowers receiving a TIL for the first time should understand that a check mark against "may" on the first line under "Prepayment" means they have a penalty clause without any doubt whatever, and they should just ignore the second line. February 5, 2011 Postscript: The good news is that beginning in 2010, the Good Faith Estimate (GFE) administered by HUD has a clear statement on whether or not the mortgage has a prepayment penalty.; 个人分类: 资料收集|54 次阅读|9 个评论
