Is Cryptocurrency a Bubble?

According to economists, cryptocurrency is the mother of all bubbles. Though the skyrocketing prices in the bygone years and many experts pinpointing cryptocurrency as a bubble, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is.

In economics, a bubble is when the cost of an asset is more than its intrinsic worth. Usually, prices are gone up in a bubble when people show an extremely positive attitude towards an asset. When the bubbles burst eventually, people are left with nothing when they haven’t made a sale of the asset in the expectation of a hike in prices.

Income verification is a critical part of the loan application process to verify if individuals can take on the financial commitment of a loan.

It should not be difficult. Lenders often just want to tick a small box on an application form “Has the customer provided adequate proof?” Yet sometimes obtaining that truth is hard, leading to dropped applications on the one hand, or fraud on the other.

Economic uncertainty offers opportunity for F&I trailblazers

The economic challenges currently facing the UK could pave the way for trend-setters to emerge as market-leaders. That’s the message from Martin Hill – MD of automotive tech firm DealTrak – in a report which considers the secret to unlocking F&I success in these uncertain economic times.

The bold statement comes in the build-up to Brexit and in the wake of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)’s motor finance report – which likely made for uncomfortable reading for many within the car industry.

People Who Do Not Have Bank Account Pay £500 Extra a Year in Bills

People who do not have access to a bank account pay an extra £485 a year for everyday bills and services, research from an account provider suggests.

More than 1.2 million Britons do not have a bank account, so miss out on discounts reserved for those who pay bills by direct debit, said Pockit.

This ramps up the cost of energy bills, broadband and phone contracts, it said.

"For many of us, having a bank account is a basic fact of life," said Pockit boss Virraj Jatania.
