1. Introduction Sukuk are usually referred to as the Islamic Bonds, though it does not resemble the conventional bond in any possible manner. Sukuk are Islamic certificates of investment. They signify co-ownership of productive resources, known as the “underlying assets”. Sukuk-holders gain profits as opposed to interest by trading or investments rather than mere lending. As co-owners of the productive resources, sukuk-holders face ownership risk. Ownership risk means that the co-owners are exposed to the possibility of generating profits or incurring losses. This factor makes it Shariah complaint, as according to Shariah an income must be earned and if not earned by effort then at the very least must be earned by taking risk or sharing profits …show more content…
whether asset-backed or asset-based. They continued by saying that in the case of Ijarah Sukuk, the SPV will hold the asset-based on a declaration of trust, and they will commence with investment activities and will take the proceeds of the underlying asset and they will be responsible to distribute the income generated from the investment proceeds to the Sukuk-holders. However, should there be a case whereby the originating company does not pay its required “rental fees” to the SPV, they may not be able to buy back the asset at maturity or in the case of a default; which means that the SPV will also not be able to pay back the principle to the …show more content…
cash flows and/or the assets’ maturity value may call for the credit risk for this type of Sukuk. It must be provided with vital securitization elements through which, the obligator can be effectively delinked from the credit risk profile of the Sukuk.’ This definition is close to that of Moody who defines the Asset-Backed Sukuk as where the investors have the benefit of asset backing. They are in preferential position as they have some sort of security over the underlying asset. Thus, in the case of insolvency or default then the sukuk holders have the right to realise the value of the exposure from the underlying
First, when a creditor (ICE) extends credit to a debtor (Top Quality) and takes a security interest in some property of the debtor, Top Qualities inventory in this case, it is called a secured transaction. The inventory is then considered collateral for the financing that ICE provided for Top Quality, which was made clear in the financing statement that ICE filed. Any secured transactions where personal property is used as collateral is governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. The UCC was revised in 2001 to better adhere to modern times, and since this case took place from 2007 to 2009, we will be applying the revised edition. There are many sections of Article 9 that should be considered when examining this case. First, the filing of a financing statement, form UCC-1 in Article 9, should be confirmed as filed with the appropriate state office. Once this has been done, confirming the attachment of Top Quality’s inventory to ICE, we can then look to confirm that the initial sale to Chrisman was paid in full to Top Quality, which it was. If this were not the case, ICE would be entitled to the remaining sale proceeds. Now we move on to the requirements of a buyer in the ordinary course of business, per Article 9 of the UCC. According the textbook, “A buyer in the ordinary course of business who purchases goods from a merchant takes the goods free of any perfected or unperfected security interest in the merchant’s inventory, even if the buyer knows of the existence of the security interest” (Cheeseman). The textbook then continues to explain that this rule is necessary because buyers would be reluctant to purchase goods if the merchant creditors could recover the goods if the merchant defaulted on the loans owed to secured creditors. These statements come from the Revised Article 9, section 320(a). This is based on the idea that the buyer purchases in good faith, meaning that they are
The high yield bond is a bond that features higher returns but with a lower credit rating than typical investment-grade bonds. These bonds can also be referred to as ‘junk bonds’ that are rated as below investment grade by organizations such as Moody’s and Standard and Poor’s. [Appendix #1] Generally, companies that issue high yield bonds may receive their rating due to a few characteristics, such as being less established than typical household brands, showing weak financial performance or they may have suffered a financial setback at some point in their corporate history. Although, high yield bonds may seem to have a relatively negative reputation among investors they possess many attractive advantages which include: diversifying portfolios, greater yields, lower volatility thus makings for a good long-term investment and the fact that bondholders have priority of recovering their money over equity security holders in the case of bankruptcy. These bonds are accessible to investors either as individual issues or through the means of high-yield mutual fund investments. On the other hand, there are certainly risks involved when investing in high yield bonds, such as credit risk where there is the possibility that the issuer defaults on the principal or interest payments over the course of the term and investment in these bonds ultimately depends on how informed the investor is and the amount of risk the investor is willing to tolerate. Similar to other types of securities there is always the threat of economic downturn and risks occurring when investing in international markets, such as political and exchange rate risks. In contrast, high yield bonds are able to mitigate interest rate risks better, and are less vulnerable to drast...
...nt interest. The company wanted to invest extra mortgage-backed securities with $100 million and get 7 percent interest. Then the company borrows a short term loan for $100 million at 4 percent interest. The leverage of company is $10 in a debt for every $1 of equity. The return on equity would be 3.7million on equity of $10million. Hence, investor was willing to obtain short term loan in the bank while they would be given a higher premium. Diamond and Rajan (2009) suggest that the short term debt is seemed like cheaper compared to the future illiquidity’s cost and the long term capital. Therefore, heavy short term leverage market becomes more common in the market of bank capital structure. While the risk-averse banker is unlikely bear the excessive risk, the illiquidity’s costs would be more salient. This had enforced the market into a heavy capital structure.
SPEs are commonly used by companies to isolate financial risk, hide debt. Under normal circumstances, the company will transfer assets to the SPE SPE-owned assets management or use of a large-scale project, in order to achieve a series of goals stenosis did not put the entire company at risk.

In today’s society, body image is a very important aspect of media and popular culture. Celebrities and models are plastered everywhere and often portray very unrealistic body standards. Young women are the main demographic that is affected by such out-of-reach image ideals. In Suzannia’s case, she seems to be primarily suffering from body dysmorphic disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder. Many of the actions and symptoms that Suzannia performs and experiences are an overlap of these two different diagnoses. Although body dysmorphic disorder and OCD range in many between forms, Suzannia’s case specifically relates to her nose.
