Что это такое ? Какой-то кризис разразился на рынках, кто в этом теряет ? Речь идет о заемах под имеющиеся моргиджи или что-то другое ?
в ване все спокойно, релакс ...Что это такое ? Какой-то кризис разразился на рынках ...
речь идет что надавали моргиджи всем кому попало, закрыв глаза на кредитную историю дав их под более высокий процент, с нулевым дауном итд, и если гавкнется то они полетят первые ...Речь идет о заемах под имеющиеся моргиджи или что-то другое ?

subprime mortgage financial crisis refers to the sharp rise in foreclosures in the subprime mortgage market that began in the United States in 2006 and became a global financial crisis in July 2007. Rising interest rates increased newly-popular adjustable rate mortgages and property values suffered declines from the demise of the housing bubble, leaving home owners unable to meet financial commitments and lenders without a means to recoup their losses.
The sharp rise in foreclosures after the housing bubble caused several major subprime mortgage lenders, such as New Century Financial Corporation, to shut down or file for bankruptcy, with some accused of actively encouraging fraudulent income inflation on loan applications, leading to the collapse of stock prices for many in the subprime mortgage industry, and drops in stock prices of some large lenders like Countrywide Financial.
Subprime lending is a general term that refers to the practice of making loans to borrowers who do not qualify for market interest rates because of problems with their credit history or the ability to prove that they have enough income to support the monthly payment on the loan for which they are applying. Subprime loans or mortgages are risky for both creditors and debtors because of the combination of high interest rates, bad credit history, and murky financial situations often associated with subprime applicants.
The final recent trend in housing finance in Canada relates to the development of the subprime mortgage market. While subprime mortgage loans represent a small fraction of the mortgage market in Canada (estimated to be less than 2% of the total mortgage loan outstanding in 2005 Q1), many of the niche lenders which offer subprime mortgage loans have experienced rapid growth in the past five years. To date, subprime lenders in Canada have mainly focused on the near-prime market, often referred to as “Alt-A” or “A minus”, ie borrowers with a good credit history but limited documentation regarding their income or employment. This, associated with the current benign economic environment, may help to explain the low level of delinquency rates on subprime loans in Canada compared to those in other industrialised countries.
