		<description><![CDATA[The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) is the latest to join the ever-growing list of banks facing litigation over misconduct and malpractices concerning overdraft fees. The bank has agreed to pay $62 million in settlement of a lawsuit filed against it by its customers accusing it of unreasonable assessment and collection of overdraft fees. However, the settlement requires approval from the U.S. District Judge in Miami. Background The customers accused TD Bank of regularly dealing with transactions pertaining to debit cards in the order of magnitude of the transaction rather than the chronological order. The intentional malpractices resulted in faster negative balances in customers’ accounts, leading to a larger number of overdrawn transactions, each of which then became chargeable. Consequently, overdraft fees piled up in excess. Moreover, TD Bank violated the U.S. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, Reuters reported that Bank of America Corporation (BAC) is again preparing to divest its international units in a bid to further streamline its operations and focus on its core businesses. This time, BofA intends to sell its international wealth management units in anticipation of receiving about $3 billion. The units on sale, which were mostly obtained by BofA from its Merrill Lynch acquisition in 2009, comprise nearly $90 billion worth of assets under management. However, this division of BofA has been procuring mediocre results due to inadequate business scale. The Prospective Buyers The potential bidders have been asked to present their tenders this week for the first round of bidding. However, the sale offer may not seem attractive to many buyers as the wealth management businesses normally do ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although Bank of America Corporation (BAC) strived and passed requirements of Federal Reserve’s stringent capital criteria, BofA is still banking on its plan to shrink balance sheet in order to streamline its operations, focus on its core businesses and improve top-line growth. Earlier this week, BofA has come up with the divestiture of its consumer credit card operations in Ireland to Apollo Global Management LLC’s (APO) fund affiliate, Apollo European Principal Finance Fund I (Apollo EPF). BofA’s Irish card unit includes more than 200,000 customer accounts with a balance of more than €650 million ($860 million) in receivables. The unit will continue to be managed in Ireland by its existing 250 staff. However, the financial terms of the agreement were undisclosed and the deal is still subjected to regulatory approvals. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Foreign banks have been facing difficulties non-stop since the latest financial crisis, which triggered off as a credit issue in the sub-prime enclave of the U.S. mortgage market in mid-2007, and spilled all over the globe. The latest deterrents –– nagging macroeconomic issues, the European sovereign debt crisis in particular, and regulatory pressure –– also resulted in the sector’s latest under-performance. Moreover, the upcoming quarters look even worse with several negatives like asset-quality troubles, weak revenue growth, steeper costs and weak loan demand. But thanks to the worldwide regulatory reform, the sector has at least entered a transformation phase. Needless to mention, a change is yet to be felt. The sector entered 2012 with a lot less momentum than anticipated. Rising concerns related to funding and limited access to market ]]></description>

The results of the company were 13 cents ahead of the year-ago figure of $1.70 per share. Total Revenue General Dynamics generated total revenue of $7.85 million in the reported quarter versus $8.01 million in the year-ago quarter, reflecting a decline of 2.0%. The year-over-year decline in revenue was primarily attributable to lower contribution from its Marine Systems and Information Systems and Technology segments, marginally offset by growth in Aerospace, and Combat Systems. Reported quarter revenue however failed to meet the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $8.3 billion. Segment Performance The Aerospace segment reported revenue of $1.4 billion, up 9.4% from the prior-year period. Operating income ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bank of America Corp. (BAC) is planning to retrench 3,500 workers this quarter as the company is fraught with its $1 trillion problem-loan portfolio. The ongoing economic and market instability further compounded the quandary. Thousands of additional layoffs could ensue in the upcoming quarters as the company is working on a broader restructuring plan to recover its financial position, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday following communication with BofA employees. According to the source, though BofA is still in the discussion phase about the extent of the job cuts, the number might go beyond 10,000 as part of a wider review. BoA was one of the biggest victims of the 2007 housing bubble. Its share price has plummeted about 85% since then. Despite taking several restructuring initiatives, the company ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[These may be the times that try men’s souls, but this is also the sort of time when long-term investors can snatch up great bargains. What do I mean by a great bargain? A good solid company selling at a low valuation. The reason you buy stocks is that they represent partial interest in a company. You want to own companies, because over time they make a lot of money, and they can then pay that money out to you in the form of dividends. Even with stocks that currently don’t pay a dividend, the idea is that they will be able to redeploy the cash they earn better than you could, so that they continue to grow their earnings and thus sometime down the road can pay out even ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Backed by worldwide regulatory reform, the global banking industry is currently going through a transformation phase. Though the growth potential of some non-U.S. banks could be subdued due to higher reserve requirements, increased property taxes and strict lending limits as part of the regulatory overhaul, greater transparency in regulation could strengthen the fundamentals of many banks. Moreover, it is expected to create a less risky lane for the overall industry. Since 2010, the banking sector has been recovering at a moderate pace from the latest financial crisis that started as a credit issue in the subprime enclave of the U.S. mortgage market in mid-2007 and spilled all over the globe. Though the malice spread by the financial crisis is behind us, banks are now dealing with regulatory pressure as they ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the 10-year T-note yielding only 3.21%, investors interested in getting income from their investments are in sort of a tough place. Dividend-paying stocks are a very good place to look for a replacement. One thing you know for sure is that the coupon payment on a 10-year note is not going to rise. A yield of 3.21% does not offer much of a cushion against inflation. What is inflation likely to average over the next 10 years? I have no idea, but based on the spread between the regular 10-year note, and the 10-year TIPS, the market is implicitly expecting a rate of about 2.50%, which is pretty much in line with the historical experience (headline CPI) over the last 20 years of 2.57%. While core inflation is the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some banks have started raising fees (or imposing new ones) on customers who withdraw money from ATMs, according to Wednesday&#8217;s Wall Street Journal. The move is a part of the banks’ strategy to recoup their financials from the impact of various financial regulations. Banks such as JPMorgan Chase &#38; Co. (JPM), PNC Financial Services Group Inc. (PNC) and The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) have already changed their policy regarding ATM usage in order to collect more fee income. Though other banks including Bank of America Corporation (BAC) and Citigroup Inc. (C) have not issued any fresh guidelines about ATM withdrawal fees, they are also contemplating such a move. JPMorgan hiked its ATM fees for withdrawal from non-customers to $4 and $5 in Texas and Illinois, respectively, on a trial basis. These ]]></description>

Though the worst of the financial crisis is behind us, there remain major challenges following the intervention of governments to rescue and stabilize the global banking system. Although non-U.S. banks are still dealing with liquidity and confidence challenges, governments have taken several steps to alleviate the sector, as banks are the lifeblood of the economy. Consequently, political interference in the sector has increased significantly over time, which has added to existing financial risks.

However, we believe that the worst of the global financial crisis is behind us. Although non-U.S. banks are still dealing with liquidity and confidence challenges, governments have taken several steps to alleviate the sector, as banks are the lifeblood of the economy. Though the industry is in the process of adopting tougher measures to help prevent a recurrence of the global financial crisis and restore public confidence, there remain lingering concerns. However, we believe it would be a perfect time to get involved with non-U.S. bank stocks for long-term investments, as valuations are now comparatively cheaper. Investors ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony Daltorio, Investment U Research Thursday, February 25, 2010 At the turn of the century, U.S. banks like Citigroup (NYSE: C), Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC), and Bank of New York Mellon (NYSE: BK) dominated the list of the world’s highest-valued banks. Of course though, the financial crisis and resulting recession altered all that. So by the end of the decade, that pecking order changed… a lot. Suddenly, a slew of Chinese and Brazilian banks had made the cut. For that matter, so had several Canadian financials Incorporatedluding the Royal Bank of Canada (NYSE: RY) and the Bank of Nova Scotia (NYSE: BNS). These big Canadian banks typically generate return on equity between 13% and 20%. And they rarely produce negative returns on equity. In contrast, their comparable competitors in ]]></description>

These third parties include regulators such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the U.S. Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve, the Securities and Exchange Commission and former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. Others who have been subpoenaed include Moody&#8217;s Investors Service (MCO), Banco Santander (STD), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD), Wells Fargo (WFC) and Goldman Sachs (GS), which advised Washington Mutual on its sale.

		<description><![CDATA[Ryan Cole, The Investment U Research Team It wasn’t so long ago Canada’s banking system was considered behind the times. Almost cute, an antiquarian relic, it banked in the old ways… and it was holding Canada back. After all, while real estate throughout the world was doubling every few years, Canadian homes were moving up relatively modestly. While risk in the rest of the world had been eliminated through complicated instruments that everyone trusted “someone else” understood, Canada was still using the traditional loan-and-hold mortgage model… I’m sure you see where this is going. Canada’s banks weren’t caught up in one of the biggest global bubbles of the last few decades, and they aren’t participating in the fallout either. It’s why investors around the world are looking at Canada, and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Dr. Mark Skousen, Advisory Panelist The U.S. financial system is a mess &#8211; according to the World Economic Forum, the United States ranks 40th among banking systems around the world. Without federal bailouts, the two largest banks in the country, Citibank (NYSE: C) and Bank of America (NYSE: BAC), would be in bankruptcy, and the good ol’ USA would be headed for the Greater Depression, as my friend Doug Casey likes to call it. But you’ll never guess where the world’s No. 1 banking system is. No, it’s not fabled Switzerland nor booming Hong Kong. While the central banks around the world are desperately trying to stem the flow of red ink, this country’s red is emblazoned on its iconic mounted police force. It’s right next door: Canada.
