A New Lexicon For The Property Sector

Remember the first time you heard the word Blackberry? A fruit, surely. And Wii? That's something babies do. Until recently, you might have been similarly perplexed by the word premium as it's used in Dubai.

In my first encounter, I thought it was something to do with government bonds. Silly me. In this context, it's in fact the profit a speculator makes in flipping his property. Sometimes, this profit is as high as three to four times the original down-payment on the property.

Not too long ago, almost everyone seemed involved in the premium game. Smart-suited businessmen, housewives, college kids: Wheeler dealers all. And like me, you would surely have experienced the following scene: You're sitting at a coffee shop, enjoying a latte as you watch the world swirl around you. Suddenly, your peace is rudely shattered by an annoying person at the next table with at least two mobile phones, closing a deal on a property. He would then walk around shouting prices and premiums. Everyone would breathe a sigh of relief once he closed the deal.

You just don't see these guys anymore. Why? Because premium has dropped out of use, and with it the premium guys have melted away. Today, a new phrase has entered the lexicon: What's the OP?" For the uninitiated, OP means original price. Prospective buyers now are insisting on information about the price the property originally sold at. No one wants to part with their cash unless they're comfortable they're buying close to the OP.

An insatiable appetite to go faster or get bigger and stronger led to escalating premiums, with transacting in property resembling a night out at the casino. Winner takes all. I remember a fist fight at the launch of a new off-plan project. Buyers - or speculators as we like to call them today - could within days make returns in the double-digit percentage range. Now that's easy money. More than that, it was easy money and everyone was getting in on the act. For me, the danger point appeared when prices of off-plan properties at launch sky rocketed above ready-to-move-in properties of equal quality and in similar locations. It simply made no sense.

It is precisely the frenzied bidding up of premiums that has led us to the unhappy situation we are in today. Everywhere one looks, one finds people glum and down. No matter who you talk to, everyone is an oracle of doom. But things really don't need to be this way. Let's look at the basic commercial facts.

Conventional wisdom aside, the market presents some great opportunities for buyers looking to make a healthy, but not excessive, upside. Quality brokerages that have correctly priced completed real estate properties offer options that represent excellent yields for cash buyers who want a buy-to-let arrangement. Equally, for those wishing to buy primary residences there hasn't been a better time than the present. The off-plan market will struggle as potential buyers turn a lot more discerning. In addition, speculators will continue to be weeded out of the market and we will be left with end users and sophisticated investors looking for reasonable returns.

For developers this will be a much harder sales cycle, of course. But much depends on the credit market. Financing is the most important aspect to the property industry. A good deal now depends on how much financing is available to support mortgage applications as well as construction loans. That said, the prognosis is that it is likely that bank lending will return to healthy levels soon. Many projects that banks had committed to, but not yet actually extended actual credit, may now be cancelled. Thus, by the end of it is likely that banks will be scrambling to participate in new developments that promise prudent and viable returns. This should make life a lot easier for buyers, as well as developers.

But until then, we're in for interesting times. But at least the annoying guy with two phones has been assigned to the dustbin of real estate history. What emerges will depend on how well we all work together in shaping the future.

Maththala: The Second Internatinal Airport in Sri Lanka

Sir Lanka is a country where we earn a considerable amount of our income via foreign trade. We have the best spices in the world, the best Tea in the world and many more. Sri Lanka is a country worth watching. We earn another considerable amount of income through tourism. In the present most of the foreign trade is done by air freight. Sea freight is also used commonly but the above mentioned products and the above mentioned industries are strictly depending on the air transportation system.

To get the maximum out of this, we need airports with comfortable passenger hanging areas and sophisticated cargo and baggage handling capabilities and facilities. Plus, we need modern airplane walkthroughs and extended tarmacs to handle the jumbo class jets travelling full blast around the world.

Sri Lanka has only one International airport that can handle this kind of demand at the present. That is the Katunayaka International airport. It can handle all these demands but the ever rising amounts have begun to frustrate the airport little by little. It is obvious that in a few years the mentioned airport will not be enough to serve the demands without TRAFFIC JAM.

Maththala airport is going to take Sri Lanka to a new era of development. With the development of this project it has opened up various job opportunities for local citizens. After completing this is expected to grow Sri Lanka's tourism new scale which is possible with the growth of aviation transactions in Sri Lanka. As a result of this Air Port there is going to be a large scale development throughout the rural maththala area to match with the demands of an airport.

The government ultimately identified this upcoming problem and took steps in constructing yet another, the second international airport of Sri Lanka, the International Airport Terminal at Maththala, Hambantota, Southern Province, Sri Lanka.

The reason to choose a remote location as Maththala is obvious because this airport will definitely get directly connected with the Hambantota harbor and elevate the development, trade and commerce in the country. Furthermore, this will definitely draw a lot of investors and investments pilling up in Colombo to the under developed areas of the country.

The dedicated premise for the Maththala airport is 2000 hectares. Even this land is already allocated for the project, the first phase will only utilize on 800 hectares.

The first phase is going on at the present with an estimated expenditure of US$ 200 million. This includes the construction of a 3.5 kilometer long and 75 meter wide air strip for landing and taking off planes, A passenger terminal building equipped with the latest baggage handling mechanisms, a cargo loading/Unloading and storage facilities, A 41 meter air traffic controlling unit, Two air bridges with navigating capabilities and finally a jumbo jet passenger terminal. At the finalization of this phase, the airport will be able to handle four airplanes in the same time and one million passengers per year.

Risk Management: The Three Lines Of Defence

The three lines of defence principle is a long and well established concept that has been deployed in a variety of industries and situations.
In the insurance industry the three lines have consisted of the following:
The business the day-day running of the operation and the front-office
Risk and compliance the continual monitoring of the business
Audit the periodic checking of risk and compliance.

In part this approach is the solid foundation upon which firms can protect themselves against a range of potential risks, both internal and external, and to a degree it is an approach that is forced upon them through regulators' insistence on external audits as well as on an embedded risk management capability.

As reliable and well proven as the three lines of defence concept is throughout the insurance industry, it is in need of an update. In today's market there is a far greater number of risks and regulations and an ever-increasing level of complexity in business. Simply being sure that every major risk is in hand is a difficult task.

It is not so much the concept of the three lines of defence that needs to be overhauled but the way that these three lines communicate with each other and the relationship between them.

The complexity of today's market affects the risk and compliance function more than any other. In the majority of organisations management of the various different forms of risk operational risk, compliance risk, legal risk, IT risk are all carried out by different teams, creating a pattern of risk silos. This situation leads to a number of negative consequences. The first of these concerns efficiency.

These risk silos each gather their information by asking the business to provide various information relating to their daily tasks and any potential risks associated with them. Because of the silo structure, the business will find itself being asked for this same information on a multiple of occasions. This not only leads to inefficiency due to the duplication of effort, it can also lead to frustration from front office staff and subsequent disinclination to engage with risk management.

Such is this level of frustration that, according to one insurer which recently appointed a new chief executive, when the new head asked his staff what single change would make their life easier he was told to do something about the endless questionnaires and check sheets that they have to fill out to satisfy risk managers and compliance officers.

While frustration among staff is never a positive development, any company's risk management programme depends on getting buy-in from the staff so anything that threatens the success of this programme has to be addressed.

Perhaps more importantly there is also an inconsistency due to the different ways this same information will be interpreted by different risk teams. This disparate relationship between risk teams can also lead to a lack of recognition over potential correlations between various risks. For example, the recent sub-prime crisis that has affected so many banks may have been avoided if there had been more co-ordination and communication between the credit department and those selling mortgages to people with bad credit.
Similarly the 6.4 billion loss at Socit Gnrale was the result of several risk oversights, combining a lack of controls on individual traders as well as a failure to implement various checks on the trading systems themselves. There was also a negligence of market risk factors with risk management not highlighting a number of transactions having no clear purpose or economic value.

Major risk events rarely result from one risk and most commonly involve a number of potential exposures all combining. Consequently insurers need to be more joined up in their risk management and more consistent in the way that risk is reported across the organisation.

For those individuals charged with the responsibility for enterprise-wide risk management, their task is made harder by the inconsistent formats that they receive their risk information. For example, interest rate risk may be reported as a single Value at Risk number, whereas regulatory compliance or operational risk may be expressed through a traffic light format. How is a chief risk officer, or indeed a CEO, expected to rank such disparately expressed exposures?

What organisations are now looking to do is to gather all of the various risk information in a consistent format for their chief risk officers to work from. So having a common framework for this process is crucial.
There are various initiatives in the insurance industry ICAS, Solvency II and, often, the Basel Accord all of which have contributed to the growth of risk and compliance teams. The chief requirement for all of these regulations is capital adequacy, meaning that insurers have to set aside a calculated reserve of capital to cover a number of potential risk scenarios.

However, regulators will say that they are not simply looking for firms to fulfil their most basic regulatory requirement and to set aside a defined sum of money to cover a list of risk scenarios. Instead they are looking for firms to concentrate on the methodology used to arrive at these numbers, and on ensuring that the risk management process is thoroughly embedded throughout the organisation and scenario analyses bring together risk information from all of the various risk silos.

Scenario analysis is one approach that firms are using to meet their regulatory requirements but effective scenario analysis is very much based on the ability to collate and correlate risk information from all over the organisation.

For the internal audit teams, their primary concern is to be more effective and to ensure that they are not simply repeating the work of the risk and compliance teams and are adding value by rigorously testing this work. Such a task requires access to this information and, ideally, to be using the same common framework as the risk and compliance teams so that information can be seen in the correct context.

We are seeing much greater independence and objectivity in the internal audit role, says Simon Rogerson, head of internal audit at Zurich Financial. In an increasing number of organisations the internal audit function is no longer confined to existing within a corner the finance department and has more direct communication with senior management.

The Role of Technology:
According to Rogerson, the use of technology to facilitate the evolution of the three lines of defence is a new development in the insurance industry. Because it has been hard to clarify the different lines of defence and their relationships, it has been difficult to build a business case for a new system and to build the necessary workflow around these different roles.
The situation is exacerbated by the presence of separate legacy systems in the business, risk and audit departments. Everyone is aware of the weaknesses in their own systems but this knowledge does not always translate across the three lines of defence. This leaves most insurers with two choices. The first is to go back to the start and design a new all-encompassing system from scratch. The second choice is a system that supports common processes and reporting while allowing each function to continue using specialist solutions that suit their own needs.

I think the successful firms will be those that recognise there are different functionalities in these different spaces but they are all able to communicate with each other in a common language and through common systems, says Rogerson. Observations can be shared and specific risk issues can then be discussed through an email exchange and summary reports can be automatically sent out to managers.

For internal auditors a lot of their work is manually-based, says Rogerson. But technology would enable us to do these things quicker and more accurately. The system would also enable us to make certain risk issues generic so that where a risk is identified in one office or department we can then alert all the relevant risk managers in other departments and offices to see if this risk has been recognised and if there are processes in place to manage this risk. By automating this identification of risk, it enables insurers to take a smarter, more efficient and more global approach to the internal audit function.

For risk managers it is about simplifying the process. They have a limited set of resources and want to make as much use of them as possible. In order to achieve this, it often means involving the business in carrying out much of the risk process controlled risk assessments through recording any losses or the breaches where these losses occur. By conscripting the services of their business colleagues, risk managers are able to concentrate on the value-added side of their work and their role.

There are also some wider benefits to the organisation from such a system and the principle behind it. The more that front-office staff is exposed to the mechanics of the risk management process, rather than being repeatedly petitioned for the same information from multiple parties, the more they are aware of its importance and their role in it.

Decades ago, total quality management was a fashionable concept in many organisations. The frailty of this concept was that in having a dedicated management team in this area, the rest of the business could assume that quality was no longer their problem but someone else's. This same misconception could be applied to risk and compliance, unless the business is kept well-informed of the risk management process and their own role within this process. Therefore it is important to make everyone realise that risk is their problem too.

How To Repay Their Debts Swiftly Using Interest Rate Arbitrage

Many financial gurus advocate paying off debt immediately so that you can get to work building a savings. This strategy sounds good on the surface, but it isn't always the appropriate financial move. Racking up debt is simple when you're young, but learning how to get out of debt quickly is normally a slow and cumbersome process. Credit cards, student loans, and even your mortgage make it tricky to build up a huge savings.

The Debt Snowball

There are many types on the "debt snowball" idea. But, they all have one thing in common. The idea depends on you starting with one debt, paying off that debt, and using the freed up capital to the next debt. As you pay off debts, the amount of "free" capital you have increases, which makes it much easier to pay off each following debt. This is the "snowball" effect. It's certainly more of a "savings snowball" than a debt snowball since its your savings that's increasing, not your debt.

For instance, lets say you have these debts:

Credit card - /month

Credit card - 0/month

Personal loan - 0/month

Mortgage - 0/month

If you pay off the first credit card, then you'll have an extra to apply to the larger credit card. As soon as that credit card is paid off, you can utilize the from the first credit card and the 0 from the second credit card to the personal loan. There's nothing inherently wrong with this approach, however it's not the only way to get out of debt fast. As a matter of fact, it might not even be the most efficient.

Arbitrage

Another option available is to learn how to get out of debt utilizing debt arbitrage. The idea behind debt arbitrage is that you can obtain more in your investments than what your debt costs you. So long as the money you free up is invested, you can overcome the interest rate you're being charged on the new consolidated loan. Remember, after you've refinanced your debt, you're still paying the normal monthly payments. If you have combined all of your debts into a new mortgage utilizing a cash-out refinance, as an example, then the loan will be paid off based on a set schedule, so don't fret about never paying off those credit cards.

At the same time, you'll be putting that freed up capital to work. If your new consolidated loan have an interest rate of 5 percent, and you are spending your savings at 6 percent, then you'll always earn a lot more than what your debts are costing you. In fact, if you do the math, you can earn up to 2 percentage points less than your loan interest rate in the event that your investment is tax-deferred and generating compounded rates of return. The tax-deferral as well as the compounding make up for the fact that you're loan interest rate surpasses your investment interest rate.

When your accumulated savings equals your remaining debt, you employ your savings to pay off the debt in full. Mainly because your regular monthly payments continue to lower your total outstanding debt with each monthly payment, and you're concurrently building a savings, you could retire your total debt load quicker than if you had used the "debt snowball". You can even choose to carry the debt for an extended period of time, and continue to build your savings As long as you're earning more on your investments compared to what you're paying in interest, you will always come out ahead.

The sole way to know if this arbitrage strategy will work for you is to contact a financial planner and create a financial plan. Run some numbers and see which technique of paying off your debt works best for you.

Benefits Of Real Estate Teams

In recent years, the real estate industry has changed dramatically.

With the advent of new technology and more home sellers and buyers using the internet before selecting a real estate agent those who have not kept up with the times and technology are destined to fall behind the leaders.

Take for example the concept of real estate teams. Most industries have utilized team concepts to their advantage for years: corporate departments, sports, small businesses all utilize the team concept for growth and profitability.

The real estate industry however has historically placed real estate agents as sole entities, training them to be stand alone islands left to their own devices and abilities.

However, in recent years this 'old school' training has slowly been side stepped by some of the most profitable and top producing real estate agents in the country.

By realizing and implementing team concepts into a real estate agents business, these agents can provide substantial benefits to their customers' traditional methods lacked.

Let's examine a few of the benefits of being on a real estate team...

Marketing and advertising

Teams utilize shared expenses in marketing and advertising to a much greater degree due in part to having additional resources by way of more agents as well as an increased visibility in the communities.

Stand alone agents must pay for all marketing and advertising costs themselves with little assistance from the brokerage. It is up to the individual agent to market and advertise properties for sale using their own limited funding.

With teams, agents do not have to fund the advertising costs alone. Having more agents available to share the costs greatly decreases an agents cost outlays and increases their profitability.

In addition, sellers can be assured that their property will reach more potential buyers. More potential buyers in turn may mean quicker sales and often times better realized profit.

Let's not forget about our buying customers who also benefit greatly from the real estate team concept. Regular team meetings to discuss customers' wants and needs may often present opportunities missed by the solo agent.

More minds working on a task tends to produce better results!

Experience and training

Teams benefit not only from 1 agents experience, but the combined experience of the entire team.

This aids the individual agents by having insight and experience to draw on for help in problem solving and working with difficult property issues as they arise.

Having a larger 'pool' of experience to draw on provides agents with less experience increased training opportunities in a much quicker time frame.

Support

The real estate business experiences business peaks and valley's through out the year depending on locality.

During the busiest times of the year some agents may not be able to provide the support and services which they normally provide due to the number of customers they're working with at one time.

On a team, this is never the situation as there is always someone on the team that can lend a hand, provide support, show customers properties, write contacts etc.

Fun and Camaraderie

Teams tend to be much more fun!

Think about this a moment: If an agent is working alone, they may be able to visit and entertain with a few other agents in their office when not busy.

However, with a team you get the closeness of friendship and support that only a group of like minded professionals enjoy.

Team events, dinner parties, team meetings etc. all lend themselves to additional fun for the agents providing the ability to relax and share good times with others.

While many agents continue to employ the 'old school' traditional techniques in running their businesses, the more successful agents employ the team concept to provide increased customer services, reduced costs to team agents as well as increased profits to sellers and agents alike.

Growing a productive team is a key ingredient in running a successful real estate business in today's market.
