USA Funds presents Excellence in Debt Management awards to three schools
INDIANAPOLIS, June 5, 2012 -- /PRNewswire/ -- USA Funds® has announced the recipients of its 2012 Excellence in Debt Management Awards. USA Funds recognized the following three postsecondary institutions for their efforts to promote financial literacy and help their students minimize and manage their student loan debt:
Shaw University, Raleigh, N.C. This private, four-year university pursues a variety of activities to enhance student retention and curb student loan defaults. It conducted a survey during freshman orientation to identify students who were at risk of dropping out of school and in need of academic or social intervention. Based on the survey results, the university launched a pilot mentoring program. In conjunction with that program, the university also presented 27 financial literacy and financial aid workshops during the past academic school year to 625 students. The university also conducts face-to-face exit counseling sessions for graduating seniors to provide information about their lenders, various repayment options and information about the amount of debt that they have incurred while in school. Following graduation, Shaw University conducts aggressive communication campaigns to former students who have fallen behind in the repayment of their student loans. These efforts include contacting student loan borrowers, beginning when a former student is more than 30 days past due on a student loan payment, and conducting a monthly telephone blitz to reach borrowers whose loan payments are more than 180 days past due. As a result of these activities, Shaw University reports that its 2010 draft cohort default rate fell to 13.2 percent, down from its official 2009 rate of 22.6 percent. The award includes a $15,000 USA Funds grant to support student scholarships at Shaw University.

Five proposals to solve $1 trillion college loan crisis
A college degree is supposed to pave the way to a better life. It didn't work out that way for Judith Tuck.
Tuck graduated from the University of Arizona in 1996 with a master's degree in rehabilitation counseling and $44,000 in student loans. She had every intention of keeping up with her loan payments, but after a series of low-wage jobs in her field, her debt began to snowball. Tuck, a 73-year-old widow, now owes more than $136,000. Her wages have been garnished and she faces losing everything, including her home.
"The only good thing about student loans is that the day I die my children will not have to pay for them," she says.

Chrysler's U.S. sales gains driven by better vehicles, management
Chrysler Chairman and CEO Sergio Marchionne deliberately kept expectations low at the beginning of this year.
Aside from the low-volume SRT Viper, there would be only one all-new major vehicle introduction: the Dodge Dart.
Even so, Chrysler's U.S. sales through April have increased by a third -- nearly triple the industry average.
Left for dead just three years ago, Chrysler has gained market share -- 11.6% for the first four months, compared with 9.6% a year ago. Ford and General Motors, on the other hand, have lost ground as Asian automakers recover from last year's tsunami.
"Now we've got the (new) products, we've got the highest quarterly earnings in 13 years," said Reid Bigland, Chrysler's head of U.S. sales.

Ally Financial Inc. (ALLY) (ALLY), the auto lender whose mortgage unit went bankrupt, may sell international car- finance and insurance operations to help repay a $17.2 billion U.S. bailout, Chief Executive Officer Michael Carpenter said.

U.S. March business loans up -ELFA
April 23 (Reuters) - U.S. companies stepped up borrowing to buy equipment in March, mainly to replace aging goods rather than for expansion, as a sluggish economic recovery puts a lid on new capital spending, the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association said on Monday.
Companies signed up for $6.8 billion in loans, leases and lines of credit in March, 10 percent more than $6.2 billion a year earlier, and 36 percent more than February's $5.0 billion, ELFA said.
Business borrowing has been growing at "recovery-like" rates for more than two years and the pace will likely be tempered without more significant economic growth, the group's Chief Executive William Sutton said in an interview.

Rate on 30-year fixed mortgage falls to 3.88%
WASHINGTON – The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage dropped near its all-time low this week, making home-buying and refinancing a bargain for those who can qualify.
Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the rate on the 30-year loan fell to 3.88% from 3.98%. That's just above the rate of 3.87% reached in February, the lowest since long-term mortgages began in the 1950s.
The 15-year mortgage, a popular option for refinancing, plunged to a fresh low of 3.11% from 3.21% last week. The previous record of 3.13% was hit last month.
Mortgage rates are lower because they tend to track the yield on the 10-year Treasury note. Last week's disappointing report on March job growth led more investors to sell stocks and buy Treasurys, which are considered safer investments. As demand for Treasurys increases, the yield falls.

Federal regulator may allow loan principal reductions
WASHINGTON – The federal regulator who oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is softening his position against allowing the mortgage giants to reduce the principal owed for U.S. homeowers at risk of foreclosure.
Edward DeMarco, acting director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, said in a speech Tuesday that the agency is considering whether to allow Fannie and Freddie to offer principal reductions. That's a subtle shift from his firm opposition to the concept.

Downturn leads to rise in costly 401(k) loans by minorities
While millions of workers used money from their retirement savings to pay expenses during the Great Recession, African Americans and Hispanics dipped into their 401(k) plans at a much higher rate.
The rise in 401(k) withdrawals, loans and cash-outs among African Americans and Hispanics represents a major setback for their long-term retirement security, says Mellody Hobson, president of Ariel Investments, co-sponsor of a survey on the recession's impact on retirement plans.

Geithner makes case for reducing homeowner loans
(Reuters) - Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Wednesday rebuffed a housing regulator's concerns that allowing mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to reduce homeowners' mortgages would only protect the big banks.
"There are some cases where principal reduction is not just good for the homeowner, not just good for the community, but it's good for the taxpayer too," Geithner told a congressional panel.
The Obama administration has been trying to use government resources to help the U.S. housing market. But it has faced resistance from the regulator for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the Federal Housing Finance Agency's acting director Edward DeMarco.
DeMarco has maintained that his regulator's mission is to protect the taxpayer money that was used to prop up the mortgage buyers after massive losses at the companies threatened the global financial system.

Chrysler gives up bid for federal green car loans

U.S. Eximbank not "corporate welfare" - GE's Immelt
(Reuters) - General Electric Chief Executive Jeffrey Immelt on Monday defended the U.S. Export-Import Bank against charges the export-facilitating lender is "corporate welfare" and should be shut down.
"It's not really corporate welfare to put us on the same playing field that our global competitors are on," Immelt said during a panel discussion on the future of American manufacturing with Boeing Chairman Jim McNerney and Dow Chemical Chairman Andrew Liveris.
The Export-Import Bank is facing a tough reauthorization fight in Congress.
Immelt, who also heads an outside economic advisory council for President Barack Obama, said the United States needed the nearly 80-year-old bank to compete against the European Union and China in global markets for aircraft and other products.

Former Irish Anglo Bank decides not to sell certain U.S. loans
Irish Bank Resolution, which changed its name from Anglo Irish Bank in July 2011, has decided not to sell a portion of its U.S. loans due to fears of lawsuits from U.S. customers, whose consent would have been required in order to sell their performing loans, an article in Irish Times said.
The bank will maintain an office in Boston to manage the $1 billion in U.S. loans that it retained, the paper said.
One retained loan is the debt on the Apthorp apartment building on the Upper West Side. Irish Bank Resolution was sued in September when it first attempted to sell the loan tied to the condominium conversion at the Apthorp. As The Real Deal has reported, the developers at the Apthorp, Africa Israel USA and Broadwall Management, were fined by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman for making conflicting statements to his office and in the suit challenging the loan’s sale. In a February filing, the developers said the bank may sell the loan, but it would have no impact on them or on the 163-unit building at 2211 Broadway. The Apthorp developers later said they would withdraw the suit.

Ratings agency Fitch warns US of possible credit downgrade
The ratings agency Fitch has warned that it may downgrade America's triple-A credit rating unless action was taken to reduce federal debt.
Fitch said the country's rising debt burden was not consistent with maintaining its top rating, but said it would probably not make a decision before 2013.
Last month, Fitch changed its US credit rating outlook to negative from stable, citing the failure of a special congressional committee to agree on at least $1.2tn in deficit-reduction measures.
"Federal debt will rise in the absence of expenditure and tax reforms that would address the challenges of rising health and social security spending as the population ages," Fitch said in a statement on Wednesday.

Bernanke denies hiding size of crisis loans
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke denied Tuesday that he had hidden the true size of the bank’s emergency lending to Wall Street from Congress and the American people.
A recent article by Bloomberg News garnered widespread attention by reporting that the Fed had lent or guaranteed more than $7.7 trillion to ailing banks during the financial crisis and that banks had earned an estimated $13 billion of income by taking advantage of cheap Fed credit.
In a letter to Congress, Bernanke said that article, and many others, “contain a variety of errors and mistakes.”
