New Cars Being Passed Up For Used Models Among Those Looking For Savings

Leave a comment

[London, UK] – March 23, 2011 – With the jobless recovery being doubted more and more by many in the United States today, along with those in other nations affected by the recent economic meltdown, an increasing number of consumers are looking for alternate means by which to save money on cars. Since the average person is definitely in need of a vehicle that will suit their needs, yet can scarcely afford the current prices on new car lots today, many are deciding that the second hand vehicle market may hold opportunity for them. In an effort to get better prices that are more closely aligned with their own budget realities, many consumers are turning to online web sites where they can peruse a selection of used cars for sale that may meet their needs. While general classified ads sites had a strong following online for some time, today’s web savvy shoppers are more attuned to specialty sites where they will be able to look for exactly what they want. These niche site filling a very well defined need not only in the US, but in many countries across the world, where finding a serviceable vehicle is much easier to do via the web.

Each SecureID Customer Can Switch Their SecureID Devices To IDentiWall

Leave a comment

MAR 23 2011 /RTPR/ — Made4Biz Security Inc. has announced today a trade-in plan for RSA’s SecureID.

Each SecureID customer can switch their SecureID devices to IDentiWall while using their SecureID’s past investments as credit against the IDentiWall license fee.

Such trade-in is guaranteed to be financially compelling and technically superior.

The innovative trade-in plan makes sure that switching customers enjoy:

  • Better, newest security technology that protects its users against all latest attacks even if their computer is contaminated with malwares or even if their ID is exposed.
  • Wider security coverage, which includes not only two-factor authentication, but also combines transaction verification, anti-phishing, anti-farming, as well as breach attempt notification.
  • All platform coverage including Desktops, Tablets, Smartphone
  • VPN and SSL-VPN user authentication
  • E-Banking, m-Banking, e-Health, e-Government web application protection with special ‘application agnostic’ mode by which, not even one line of code needs to be changed.
  • Polite implementation including co-existence with SecureID for the transition period and built-in implementation risk elimination measures.
  • No physical devices to be distributed and yet out-of-the-box support for such token devices and smart-cards does exist.
  • Lowest TCO. This trade-in plan was designed to ensure cost savings for the whole duration of the IDentiWall usage.
  • Cloud or on-site implementation options are supported.

SecureID users, who learned about RSA’s failure to secure its own network, wonder if they can continue keeping their eggs in RSA’s basket, or as one user put it, “working with questioned security provider, is similar to consciously getting an HIV-tainted blood infusion”.

Millions of Americans count on their tax refunds each year to pay down debts, get caught up on bills, or simply to make ends meet. With an estimated 1.5 million personal bankruptcies to be filed in 2011, bankruptcy lawyers around the country are being asked the same question: “What will happen to my tax refund if I declare bankruptcy?”

Income tax refunds are basically interest-free loans to the government, and are therefore considered assets of debtors who declare bankruptcy. The trustee assigned to your case may be able to seize your income tax refund, depending upon two main factors: first, what type of bankruptcy you file, and second, whether your refund is fully exempted.

The two main types of personal bankruptcy cases are Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. In a Chapter 7 case, debtors are essentially allowed to walk away from their debts.

In a Chapter 13 case, debtors must repay their unsecured debts over 3 to 5 years.

Most Chapter 7 cases are considered “no asset” cases, and for those assets that the debtor does possess, there are federal and state exemption laws, which prevent the bankruptcy trustee from seizing and selling the debtor’s property.

Just like the debtor’s household goods, clothing and automobile, in most Chapter 7 cases the debtor’s tax refund can be fully exempted, which means the bankruptcy trustee cannot even consider seizing the refund. However it is very important to use the full and correct exemptions to protect the refund.

Chapter 13 cases can be a bit more complicated. If you have a confirmed Chapter 13 Plan that requires repayment of only a percentage of your debt, your trustee will likely seize your refund every year over the course of your bankruptcy, using the proceeds to increase the payout to unsecured creditors. Income tax refunds in Chapter 13 are considered “property of the estate,” so your trustee will want to apply this money toward payment of your Plan.

In 100% repayment cases, however, the trustee has no interest in seizing your tax refund. If your income is demonstrably sufficient to satisfy your confirmed Plan, the trustee will allow you to keep your tax refund. You may want to adjust your withholdings before filing a Chapter 13 appropriate.

The bankruptcy trustee will in most cases require the debtor to file a tax return to determine whether the debtor’s refund can be seized and used to repay creditors. Unlike a home or car with equity, which must first be auctioned to produce distributable funds, tax refunds are a quick cash windfall to the creditors.

Tax refunds are the assets most frequently captured by bankruptcy trustees. An experienced bankruptcy attorney can assist you in finding the maximum exemption strategy to protect your tax refund.

Pair Options by Stockpair.com, the First Trading Product to Enable Direct Trading Based on the Relative Performance of Stocks

Leave a comment

[ London ]: Stockpair ( www.stockpair.com ) has announced the launch of the first everPair Options trading platform. Pair Options are a new category of market-neutral online trading products that are based on the relative performance of stocks. Pair Options trading is based on picking the best performing stock within a given stock pair (such as Apple/Google, Vodafone/BT etc.) therefore limiting the exposure to general market direction. Stockpair has taken elements from the professional Pair Trading strategy and turned it into a compelling, intuitive and trader-friendly product.

“What’s extremely valuable is that since you trade on the relative performance of two stocks, you’re essentially using a market neutral instrument,” commented Yoel Mann, Stockpair’s VP of Marketing. “What really matters is how one stock has performed against another, and not necessarily how it performs in absolute terms, so even if the market goes down, there is no affect on profits.”

The platform services the global community of traders, professionals and beginners. Within the fairly conservative financial industry, stockpair’s launch is a rare occasion on which a completely new product is to be introduced to the market, not to mention a product that simplifies a proven trading technique and makes a new effective trading paradigm accessible to traders of all levels of experience.

Stockpair is built upon a patent-pending pricing engine and an innovative visual interface which offers a unique, interactive trading experience. The platform offers Pair Options on more than 70 stocks from exchanges around the world, based on real time market data. The system enables taking decisions and making trades within seconds, allowing traders to quickly capture market opportunities.

“Trading in Pair Options has great advantages: comparing stocks is powerful; you can choose a risk strategy and begin executing trades. It is amazing how Stockpair were able to take a sophisticated product and make it so simple, keeping the real time accuracy and access to information that traders need,” says Tony Alvarez, one of Stockpair’s traders.

Business Leaders Slashing Costs For Offices

Leave a comment

March 21, 2011 – Flexibility is a common feature that many of today’s top companies are seeking for their business endeavors. They realize that the flexible company is going to be the one that can adjust to the changing realities of today’s macroeconomic environment and they want to be ready for the changes. They see that when we are looking at things from a top view, it is easy to see that the shifts are going to wear down and even eventually obliterate companies that are so structured and rigid in their practices that they do not feature the ability to shift with the times. Those of us who are serious about finding the best value for our money know that we have got to find ways to save for our companies that do not just lower costs, but keep us financially fit to the extent that we are getting more for the money we spend in the long run, too. That is why those who want to find office space are now looking to less traditional markets or at least less traditional locations within traditional markets. They want to be able to get offices that are going to reduce their rent while still providing them with the advantages that a good location should provide. This is by far the smartest thing we can do if we want a chance to get more for our money.

Of course, not all companies are going to find it wise for them to be renting offices at this time. For upstarts and those that need to slash costs rapidly, an office is merely going to add a challenge that they do not wish to deal with. For these businesses, it could be far more effective to have a virtual office instead. The advantages here are that they have a physical mailing address, a staff and all the features that an office they rented and hired staff for would have, but they do not bear the full brunt of the costs. That is certainly a very good thing and it can make a massive difference for those of us that are looking to get a solid value. If you happen to want to save in a big way, this is definitely a good thing because it can streamline the company finances fast.

Manulife Asset Management Singapore launches new global equity and fixed income funds

Leave a comment

Manulife Asset Management Singapore Pte. Ltd. today announces that it is launching two new funds – the Manulife Global Contrarian Fund and Manulife Strategic Income Fund. These are the first global funds to be launched by Manulife Asset Management in Singapore, joining 5 other domestic and Greater China funds already available to local investors.

The two funds are Singapore dollar-denominated funds which feed into strategies managed by Manulife Asset Management’s global equity and fixed income teams, based in Boston, USA. Both funds are available in Singapore to retail investors via the Aviva Navigator platform and to institutional investors.

Darryl Aw, Regional Head of Channel Distribution, Manulife Asset Management Singapore said: “We have harnessed the expertise of our international network of fixed income and equity managers to offer these two superior-performing global funds to Singaporean investors. Today’s announcement is indicative of the demand we are seeing from institutional and retail investors for global funds that carefully manage risk and generate consistently strong returns.”

Manulife Global Contrarian Fund

The Manulife Global Contrarian Fund aims to generate superior returns by investing in ‘overlooked or misunderstood’ companies selling at a discount to their intrinsic value. The fund also targets companies whose business models have the potential to generate high returns, that have attractive valuations or strong cash flows and which have proven management teams with strong track records for creating value.

The fund is part of Manulife’s Global Opportunities strategy, managed by Chris Arbuthnot in Boston. The strategy was top ranked for its 3 and 5 year performance by Bloomberg Markets magazine in 2010 and, in January 2011, topped the Global Equity performance charts to pick up a Best of the Best performance award from Asia Asset Management for its 3 and 5 year performance1.

Manulife Strategic Income Fund

The Manulife Strategic Income Fund is a multi-sector fixed income fund which allocates between global currencies, government and corporate bonds to generate strong consistent returns, while reducing risk. The dynamic and flexible approach of the underlying strategy has led it to consistently outperform its benchmark by 2% gross over 10, 5 and 3 year periods. Indeed over a 1 year period, it generated returns of 16.64% compared to benchmark returns of 8.16%2.

The strategy is managed by Daniel Janis in Boston and offers investors the benefits of diversification across multiple bond sectors but with the ability to emphasize any particular sector that the portfolio management team believes has the potential to generate superior returns at any one time. It also has the flexibility to make opportunistic currency investments.

Add People Announces Pay Per Click Services to Generate Targeted Leads

Leave a comment

Cheshire, UK March 2011 – Websites are constantly on the look out for ways to drive traffic to their website. While SEO is considered a long term method of generating traffic and developing relationships with new customers, Pay Per Click advertising, also simply known as PPC, can create traffic quickly and for highly targeted keywords.

Google and Bing both operate a network of their own websites which includes their search engines and search results pages. PPC ads can be found at the top and at the side of these results, in prominent and easy to spot positions. When a business pays for PPC ads they can have a title, link, and brief description placed in these areas.

Managing a PPC campaign, however, means ensuring that you continue to target the most appropriate keywords, pay the lowest bid price possible, and generate the appropriate number of clicks. Without careful and experience management, a PPC campaign can prove more costly than beneficial and this is where the use of a professional PPC agency really comes into its own.

A PPC agency is experienced in the research of keywords, the creation of ads, and bidding on keywords to get the most exposure for the least cost. They are also skilled at ensuring that the click through rate for a campaign remains high through the creation of top quality landing pages and highly effective ad copy. A PPC management service also has the time, expertise, and tools to ensure that a PPC campaign continues to be profitable.

Add People is a professional online marketing agency providing a range of marketing services to businesses and websites in the UK and around the world. Their PPC management campaigns have helped thousands of customers to generate masses of targeted leads to their websites and other pieces of online real estate.
