Not well enough to explain it to anybody else, so I guess that's a no..."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested." -

- You take a steaming turd.
- You but it in a gold coloured box.
- You put a red ribbon outside the box.
- You attach a card where you write "Precious golden gift".
- You sell this precious thing to an idiot who intends to sell it on to another idiot for a profit, so your customer does not look into the box to verify that he has bought a "Precious Golden Gift".
- You pocket the money from your customer and spend it on bonus for the seller of the product (yourself) and on buying more boxed, ribbons and cards.
- Then you take a walk in the park in search of more "gold".

Well, international banks use complicated risk models to calculate the credit risk and necessary reserves when lending to businesses and one of the variables is the home country of the particular business. There are lots of other variables too, but this is quite a big one. It´s more difficult for a Nigerian business to raise money from international banks than, say, a German business. So what happens is that those businesses who need credit move their head office to a country with a good credit rating, like Holland. Theoretically. So theoretically, contractors working in Dutch banks get rich.Originally posted by d000hg View Post
BOOMED, theoretically, for me
ps, actually I don´t have a clue as all I do know is that these credit risk programs are actually in many cases more like an automated Mystic Meg and not even the designers or developers have a bleeding clue what they do.Last edited by Mich the Tester; 30 September 2009, 16:18.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

BoE bonds would have to pay a higher interest rate.Originally posted by d000hg View Post
In general bond issuers or other lenders in the UK would have to pay more interest in order to get funding.
If it gets really bad you get cut off from normal international lending markets.
That will force the government to spend less than they bring in - quickly! That is painful for normal citizens as unemployment benefits and healcare is cut away.

It costs more for the UK to borrow money and thus the interest rate we have to pay to gilt holders increases ... meaning increased taxes.Originally posted by d000hg View PostComment
