Cyprus Rejects Bank Levy, Putting Bailout in Doubt

Lawmakers in Cyprus have rejected government plans to impose an unprecedented tax on bank deposits, which has thrown into doubt the 10 billion euro bailout agreed upon with the European Union on March 16.

Failures to secure the emergency loans from the EU would leave Cyprus facing a banking collapse.

The bailout, which is considered small in comparison to rescue packages for other troubled EU nations like Greece, represents more than half the size of the 18 billion euro Cyprus economy.

The proposed tax on deposits had sparked big protests outside parliament and messed with the financial markets on March 18.

Officials chose to make changes to the proposals to protect depositors who have less than 20,000 euors in their accounts, but plans to levy a tax of 6.75% on deposits of 20,000-100,000 and 9.9% on anything above 100,000 euro wasn’t approved by parliament.

Cyprus has become the fourth of 17 eurozone stars who have been granted a bailout by its EU partners and the IMF, after Greece, Ireland, and Portugal.  Spain was given EU assistance to rescue its banks, but so far has avoided asking for a full sovereign bailout.

Once the list is created, an agent should start contacting them. Whether you’re a veteran or a novice insurance agent, you can certainly make use of this method. People you know are very good source of potential customers and thus good life leads.

Making contact with them also ensures that they would refer someone they know if that individual is in immediate need of buying life insurance.

Republican House vote “yes” on John Boehner Plan B

Earlier this month, House Republicans voted on a new tax plan that will extend the lowering of taxes for all income up to $1 million. John Boehner, the speaker of the Republican house, proposed this “Plan B” option.

President Barack Obama’s original plan aimed to find a common ground, raising the heightened tax threshold from $250,000 to $400,000. However, the Republicans did not see this as appealing, and when voting opened they shot it down with the entire yes ballot filled with Republicans.

“I believe it’s important that we protect as many American taxpayers as we can,” said Boehner to reporters at a closed-door meeting of the GOP caucus. “Our Plan B would protect American taxpayers who make a million dollars or less, and have all of their current rates extended.”

While tax cuts would mean more money in the pockets of American citizens, it would also mean increasing the national deficit. With over $4 trillion of tax paying money staying in the pockets of those who earned it under this new bill, it is possible to see “record breaking” budget deficits of almost the same amount.

Currently the plan is still under consideration. The bill was proposed on Dec. 18, and with the majority of the Republican House passing the vote, it will be sent to the White House for further consideration.

When the country slipped into financial crisis in 2008, the government bailed out many large companies that were at risk failing. One of those companies was the American International Group (AIG).

However, On Dec. 10, the U.S. government announced that they were selling the final shares of AIG stock, which announced the end of one of the largest bailouts of the 2008 financial crisis.

AIG has been steadily repaying the government for it’s financial assistance, which included loans and federal guarantees. Since September, the now stable company had repaid $197.4 billion to the Treasury and the Federal Reserve, according to The Washington Post. This number actually exceeded the original bail out package, which was only $182.3 billion.

When stocks closed on Dec. 10, AIG’s shares were at $33.36, which was down 77 cents from the previous Friday’s close. The trading has been fluctuating for AIG over the past 52 weeks, with the high being $37.67. On Dec. 20, stocks were up 0.64 percent at $35.53 at closing.
