Pepperstone Announces Next Generation FX Brokerage; Unmatched Depth Of Liquidity And Execution For Forex Traders

November 8th, 2011 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in Forex

Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) January 7, 2011

Pepperstone Financial Pty Ltd CEO Owen Kerr today announced the world?s next-generation FX Brokerage platform in which clients will benefit from no Dealing Desk execution on forex trades.

The approach eliminates dealer intervention, enables greater transparency and fairer execution by removing the conflict of interest between brokers and traders.

?Pepperstone combines industry leading customer service with direct access to multiple qualified destinations of liquidity in the forex markets without the traditional burdens of a deal desk. Our model provides clients internationally with flexible and convenient trading at affordable rates,? says Owen Kerr.

Pepperstone uses MetaTrader 4, known for its security and ease of use, where customers enjoy real-time access to major and minor currency pairs and metals. Unlimited demo accounts allow users to become acquainted with the trading environment before going live.

?Whether clients prefer trading using a PC, smart phone or PDA, Meta Trader 4 can be deployed with the same user-friendly interface, blazing fast quotes and unparalleled speed of trade execution,? says Owen Kerr.

A unique feature of Pepperstone’s next-generation FX platform is the ability for customers to access liquidity from 22 banks and ECN?s. This option gives direct access to the forex interbank market, where orders are fully visible. As a result, customers are empowered to enter direct discussions with liquidity providers who can introduce their own orders and if the prices match, a deal is completed.

Beyond STP processing and Multi-Bank Liquidity, the no Dealing Desk execution on forex allows Pepperstone to stream tight spreads as low as 0.5 pips.

?Further cementing our position as a next generation FX Brokerage, Pepperstone?s excellent trading conditions are boosted by a minimum deposit of only $ 200USD,? says Owen Kerr

Backed by a team with extensive experience in derivative trading and risk management, Pepperstone was established in response to the online trading community?s escalating frustration over delays in trade executions, frequent system failures and poor customer support among traditional web-based brokers.

?Unlike the services provided by many web based brokers, Pepperstone offers accelerated execution and institutional grade spreads, combined with high frequency trading expertise. We ultimately define what will become the trends of the industry,? says Owen Kerr.

Pepperstone is based in Australia, a fast growing hub for international brokers.

Interactive Financial Marketing Group Processes Five Millionth Auto Loan Application — Milestone Marks Eight Years of Growth in Auto Finance Lead Generation

September 20th, 2011 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in Loans

Richmond, VA (PRWEB) February 1, 2011

Interactive Financial Marketing Group (IFMG), a division of Dominion Enterprises, today announced it has distributed 5,000,000 online auto finance loan applications to its Carloan.com dealer network.

The key to achieving this significant accomplishment is the diverse network of auto finance web sites and partnerships that IFMG manages, combined with a proprietary lead routing system. Given the efficiency of its robust routing engine technology, IFMG has validated, screened and distributed an average of 625,000 car loan applications per year since the launch of the system. It achieved this historic level despite the recent economic downturn that has adversely impacted both the automotive and finance industries.

Prior to building the online marketing systems it currently uses for lead generation, IFMG kicked off its operations in 1989 using vanity phone numbers. Customized 800 numbers like 1-800-CAR-LOAN and 1-800-AUTO-LOAN generated auto finance applications that were then delivered to its dealer partners. The 5,000,000 application mark does not include applications that were received and processed before IFMG made the leap to the Internet in 2002.

?This is a landmark event in the history of IFMG,? said Tom Feary, General Manager of IFMG. ?It reflects the trust that car buyers have in our auto finance websites such as Carloan.com, and the level of service our dealer network provides to those seeking a vehicle through financing. We?re looking forward to many more strong years connecting dealers to car buyers ready to be financed.?

IFMG invites auto dealers to visit Carloan.com at booth #2046S at the NADA Convention and Expo, February 5-7, 2011 in San Francisco to learn how they can join the Carloan.com dealer network.

Barclaycard Launches Next Generation Online Payments With SmartPay

October 18th, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in Bank

Northampton, England (PRWEB) October 3, 2010

Barclaycard has announced the launch of Barclaycard SmartPay. This new secure online payment processing system is designed to help European retailers compete with domestic retailers in foreign markets and reduce the number of transactions where customers do not complete their purchase.  Developed in partnership with global internet payment and e-commerce solutions provider Adyen, it will revolutionise cross-border e-commerce by offering a simpler, seamless payment experience to consumers.

Barclaycard SmartPay’s next generation functionality offers a single payment gateway (http://www.barclaycard.com/smartpay/en/feature.html) for large merchants’ online shops, adapting language and currency to the origin of the paying customer.  While ensuring an interruption-free redirect to the payments page, it also offers a diverse range of payment methods, helping retailers to meet local consumer preferences for online transaction types across European countries which helps lower abandonment rates*.

According to recent figures** for Western Europe, e-commerce sales are expected to reach €77bn this year, and grow by a further 10 per cent per annum to reach €123bn by 2015. Whether in traditional retail sales, leisure and travel or other key online sectors, Barclaycard SmartPay (http://www.barclaycard.com/smartpay/en/index.html) will enable merchants to take maximum advantage of the rapidly growing online sales market.

Paul Cook, Managing Director of Global Payment Acceptance at Barclaycard, said: “Consumers can quickly get frustrated at online check-out and abandon their purchase if the experience isn’t straightforward or they can’t select their preferred payment method.  By simplifying the complex online transaction processes, Barclaycard SmartPay (http://www.barclaycard.com/smartpay/en/feature.html) will make it easy for businesses to present a seamless, familiar payment environment to customers across the EU and, ultimately, increase conversion rates and confidence with previously unfamiliar websites.”

Pieter van der Does, Chief Executive of Adyen, said: “The Adyen Internet Payment Solution has been designed to provide a scalable, flexible one stop platform for accepting internet payments worldwide with one contract and one connection. The combination of our expertise and Barclaycard’s globally renowned brand offers merchants complete control over a payment platform they can trust and the opportunity to extend their online business across Europe.” 

Barclaycard SmartPay is PCI DSS compliant and will protect customer transactions with a range of built-in fraud and risk tools. It integrates easily with shopping carts and existing e-commerce solutions, and will provide merchants with a live snapshot of all online sales activity via real-time management reporting. 

Paul Cook, adds: “Combined with a merchant’s own marketing data, Barclaycard SmartPay’s unique reporting capabilities will provide enhanced insight into consumer behaviour in unfamiliar territories, helping them to compete in domestic markets from their home market.”

Notes to editors

*According to research from Forrester, the most popular online shopping payment across the EU is credit cards (http://www.barclaycard.co.uk/personal-home/cards/index.html ) (41%), but preferred payment methods vary by country from direct/payment cards (http://www.barclaycard.co.uk/personal-home/cards/index.html ) to online bank transfers, credit cards or even PayPal.

Davis Instruments now offers the latest in two-line intelligent panel meter technology.

The second display line, a 0.35”-high 9-digit, green LCD, offers the same programmability. The 9-digit display allows for totalizing application that easily exceeds the normal 6-digit displays. In addition to the dual displays, the meter offers a 3-digit programmable mnemonic cue, allowing users to add identification to the display value.

Safe Truckin’, The Latest A Squared Enterprises Venture, Delivers a New Generation of GPS Fleet Management Systems

September 26th, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in News




Albuquerque, NM (PRWEB) September 16, 2010

A Squared Enterprises, LLC today introduced Safe Truckin’ (www.safetruckin.com)], a new Web site that markets and sells safety and security products for commercial organizations that own and operate fleets of trucks, busses, automobiles, and other vehicles. Unlike other sites that offer only GPS systems or mobile DVR video recording, Safe Truckin’ brings these two technologies together, along with advanced remote tracking and video streaming, to empower fleet managers to remain fully aware of what’s happening with their entire fleet at all times, right from the comfort and convenience of their own office. As a result, organizations can gain greater control over their vehicles, with unparalleled protection that dramatically reduces risk and liability, and preserves the significant financial investment they’ve made in their fleets.

“Each and every year, companies, government agencies, and other organizations with vehicle fleets lose millions of dollars due to theft, loss, or driver injury,” said Arnie Bosch, CEO of A Squared Enterprises and one of the founders of Safe Truckin’. “Therefore, it’s crucial for them to have immediate access to all the facts, and know exactly what is happening in real-time – so they can instantly determine if cars and trucks are in good working order, if drivers are obeying traffic laws, if vehicles are being properly secured, and more.”

“GPS Fleet Management Systems from Safe Truckin’ help businesses overcome their most pressing safety and security challenges, by providing them with a powerful combination of remote networked map tracking with live video feeds – which is the next best thing to riding shotgun,” he continues.

Some of Safe Truckin’s cutting-edge offerings include:

    Mobile Digital Video Recorders, with support for 2 to 8 channels, which are fully integrated with GPS. These systems can be equipped with cameras placed inside or outside the vehicle, and networked via WiFi or cell phone network. This unique approach offers unparalleled near 100% geographic area coverage, 24/7, displaying location, time, speed, and other details right on the video frame, as well as on desktop screens.
    Leading-edge 3G/4G cellular networking technologies that eliminate dependence on WiFi hot spots, providing more complete and broad-reaching wireless communication coverage.
    Cameras with in-vehicle LCD monitors, giving drivers a 360-degree view of their surroundings, to help eliminate blind spots and make it easier to back-up large vehicles.
    H.264 video compression that reduces the size of video files by as much as 80 percent, saving storage and utilizing lower bandwidth for transmission, without compromising quality or clarity.
    Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) solutions that enable instantaneous communication between dispatchers and fleet managers, and their drivers. (Remote ‘listening’ to drivers capability exists and full two-way communications is currently under development.)
    Eight-alarm triggers that, when combined with mobile digital video recorders, can instantly notify fleet managers when a vehicle malfunctions, when the driver hits a “panic button”, when g-forces indicate rapid stops or accelerations or severe impact, when safe speeds are exceeded, or when other dangerous conditions exist. When an alert is triggered, a red warning flag box – along with the vehicle ID and alarm info – will pop up immediately on the fleet manager’s desktop. Just a click will produce the video feed.

“Solutions like these deliver immeasurable value to today’s businesses, whether they operate large fleets, or small ones,” Bosch added. “They can not only ensure that their drivers are obeying traffic laws and complying with corporate policies related to security and equipment handling, they can provide solid evidence in the event of an incident of theft, or an accident.”

“It’s about more than just safety,” he concludes. “Companies spend hundreds of thousands of dollars – or in some cases, millions of dollars – on their vehicles, so protecting those investments from loss or liability is vital. At Safe Truckin’, we have everything companies need to achieve unprecedented visibility and control over their fleets. And at the end of the day, that will have a profound impact on the bottom line.”

About A Squared Enterprises, LLC

A Squared Enterprises, a veteran owned small business, was founded by husband and wife team Amy and Arnie Bosch in 2004. Headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, A Squared Enterprises is committed to the protection of individuals and corporations, and is dedicated to a variety of related charitable causes.

Monetta Young Investor Fund… The Next Generation of College Saving Plans

September 6th, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in News



Wheaton, IL (PRWEB) May 21, 2007

The Monetta organization has launched an innovative mutual fund that combines an active and passive investment approach, that we believe has the potential to outperform the market, while using a kids themed investment strategy.

Historically, many themed funds have struggled with long-term performance as they lacked the portfolio diversification necessary to stay competitive. This is due to trading cost, market timing issues and the pressure of superior stock selection.

To minimize these factors, the Monetta Young Investor Fund (MYIFX) invests half of it’s portfolio in an S&P 500 Exchange Trading Funds (ETF’s) and the other half in individual stock investments, that we believe offer above average growth potential and that kids can relate to.

The MYIFX approach first uses the ETF component not only for portfolio diversification, but also to minimize turnover, trading cost and eliminate the need to time the market. *Furthermore, over long periods of time, index funds have consistently outperformed roughly three quarters of all active investment managers, after fees.

Secondly, the balance of the fund is invested in securities that are recognized by children and teenagers primarily, in the large market capitalization sector. This portion of the fund attempts to be socially responsible, meaning we avoid purchasing securities in the tobacco, gaming and alcohol sectors.

“We believe the Monetta Young Investor Fund is the only program that combines kids-theme/Index investing while encouraging financial literacy in a fun and educational way” said, Bob Bacarella Monetta’s President.

For more information visit www.Younginvestorfund.com or call 1-866-YNG-INVESTOR (964-4683).

*Reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. The S&P 500 Index is the Standard & Poor’s Index of 500 stocks, a widely recognized, unmanaged index of common stock prices. The S&P 500 Index is not available for direct investment.


Source: http://www.travismorien.com/indexactive.htm (The Common Sense Truth About Managed Funds)

The Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses must be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information about the investment company, and it maybe obtained by calling 1-800-Monetta, or visiting www.monetta.com. Read it carefully before investing.

All investments, including those in mutual funds, have risks and principal loss is possible. Limiting the purchase of individual stocks to companies that produce products or provide services that are recognized by children or teenagers may be a risk if this sector underperforms, which can be significantly affected by the performance of the overall economy, interest rates, competition, consumer confidence and spending, and changes in demographics and consumer tastes.

The portion of the Fund that invests in underlying ETF’s that track the Index will be subject to certain risks which are unique to tracking the Index. By investing in ETF’s, you will indirectly bear your share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds, in addition to indirectly bearing the principal risks of the funds. Please refer to the prospectus for further details.

For custodial accounts, Monetta Financial Services Inc. has a “college savings program” where Monetta Shareholders automatically receive an investment kit, a quarterly newsletter, various educational materials and in addition, if enrolled, will receive Tuition Rewards™ credits.

The Financial Education Of The Younger Chinese Generation

August 29th, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in News
global financial crisis
by UK in Italy

The Financial Education Of The Younger Chinese Generation

While living in China, one of the most characteristic I have noticed among my brillient Chinese friend is they have a different value system about what is fortune.

Unlike most young people here in America, who have used to own several credit cards and lived their life under debt, the Chinese youngsters seemed more like cash, they do not like to borrow money from the bank, they are more willing to earn, to save from their salaries until they have the money needed.

According to my Chinese friends, things have changed quite a bit. They told me that before the global financial crisis, there is the trend that the Chinese younger generation would like to embrace the American lifestyle, which is described as “spend your future money”. But ever since the global financial meltdown, there are more and more report in Chinese media explaining why it is wrong to live like the American did.

It is widely believed that after the global financial crisis, China is the biggest winner, while America and those who used to be “developed countries” are strongly hit by the financial turbulence.

So far as I am concerned, I think the Chinese youngsters have made their point. There seemed to be some recovery about the global macro economic situation, but it is really dangerous if we kept on living like the disaster never happened. There are too much leverage in our consuming culture, and we are way too much optimistic about our ability to earn the future money.

Most Chinese yongsters did not receive much financial education in their school, their concept about the finance is the traditional mindset “Save to protect unexpected situations”. For Quite some years, they have looked to the Americans for financial tips, now it maybe for us to look back at them and learn what is their advantage.
