Apart from CSC business students, majority of the business entrepreneurs who attended were young, indicating an interest in franchising that was not present in Virac?s business climate five or ten years ago when the entry of franchisees were seen as a threat to the local business community, according to a DTI survey. At present, there are two franchises in Virac ?” 3M Pizza and Pancit Malabon Express ?” although the former seems to have strayed from the path in terms of service and personnel. He emphasized that in the country there are 1,300 franchises to choose from, provided one should make his own careful assessment of the local market to see if it is suited and needed in Virac, Small franchises cost anywhere from P150,000 to P500,000, with the food franchises earning a net of 8 to 10 percent per month which is way much better than parking your unused money in the bank. As the investment climate improves with reliable power, we should expect a few more franchises to take root in the capital town in the next few years, particularly the cart and kiosk types which would be ideal for high pedestrian traffic like the Catanduanes State Colleges campus, the provincial capitol and selected areas in the poblacion. read more

The lender, based in Ottawa, is joining other AAA rated borrowers including the European Investment Bank and the World Bank in seeking to tap demand for kangaroo notes, or debt sold in Australia in the local currency by offshore entities. EDC sold A$650 million of five-year kangaroo bonds, pricing the notes to yield 70 basis points more than similar-maturity government debt, according to an e-mailed statement from Commonwealth Bank of Australia, which helped manage the sale. Australia?s banking regulator, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, said in a paper last year it may allow some securities other than Australian sovereign bonds to qualify as liquid assets because there isn?t enough domestic government debt on issue to satisfy requirements. Kangaroo bonds may be a possible source of high quality liquid assets to help lenders meet tougher rules relating to the size and type of buffer they must hold to protect depositors, Kevin Davis, a professor of finance at the University of Melbourne, said in a March 15 report. read more

Under a new program from community wind farm developer National Wind, companies can invest in a new wind farm in such a way that the return on their investment would offset costs of buying electricity generated by the facility. The patent-pending Windfrastructure Partner Program, as it is called, offers an alternative to buying Renewable Energy Certificates or purchasing green power through a utility. It would see National Wind developing a wind farm in the same region as the large power user, which would then buy power from the wind farm, then as an investor in the wind project, the power user would receive a form of repayment. Repayment options could see a company receiving payment equivalent to the premium paid for the green electricity compared to regular fossil fuel based energy, or could involve the power user securing up to a 50% equity interest in the wind proejct. Minneapolis-based National Wind said the program allowed for “traceable, brandable and financially neutral” green electricity for larger power users. read more
