yes, one must learn to read the fine print more often & bnm did not allow any minibonds consisting of high-risk derivatives such as synthetic collateralized debt obligations and credit default swaps to be sold here  brows.gif

Investors have so far lost US$22.5 billion (S$27.7 billion) on more than 100 subprime securities that Bear Stearns issued in 2006 and 2007, according to the complaint. That is over one-quarter of the original principal balance of US$87 billion.  tongue.gif

In the lead-up to the financial crisis, subprime mortgages were sold to people with less-than-ideal credit. Many of them defaulted on their loans when the housing bubble burst and their introductory "teaser" interest rates skyrocketed.

Because many of those mortgages had been sliced and repackaged as securities that could be bought and sold - known as RMBS - the mass defaults led to huge losses at large US banks and other financial firms, helping fuel the global economic meltdown

While it's easy to blame them for signing something that they don't understand, frankly speaking how many of us, even those in the industry understand understand how credit default swap works?  doh.gif

Li said investors complained they were misled into thinking they were buying a form of corporate bonds and were unaware until recently that the bonds were guaranteed by troubled Lehman Brothers.

Tens of thousands of Hong Kong people invested a total of HK$15.6 billion in the Lehman Brothers-backed derivatives, and they all face substantial losses. The number of complaints concerning Lehman Brothers-related products has increased sharply to 7,730 from 5,500, and will grow further, the HKMA said yesterday. The authority has opened an investigation into whether the banks misled investors into buying them, it said.

“But we cannot comment on how long it will take to investigate the problems, because it depends on the capacity of the investigation team and availability of information provided,” HKMA Executive Director Raymond Li told reporters at a press conference yesterday.  hmm.gif

I dont need the IC and photo, I would just love to talk to this person to understand his strategy or perhaps if you still know the strategy and can share it with me? This is so that I or perhaps we can protect ourselves by being able to know or identify the pattern. smile.gif

The other thing is also to know how the strategy works. biggrin.gif

p/s: Personally, I love knowledge & I tend to spend a lot of time reading wikis or ebooks.

this is for all teh tarik talkers....they are not bloggers! If you think it is you than it is you!
Wah the mystery person with his con artist strategy. Stop your imagery. What kind of blogging is this crap. If you can't identify him, what is the point of talking about him?? If you can't tel us about his "package", then don't tell us. How old are you?? This is no-brainer. Get an actuary to calculate for you the risk to put on a risk scale ratio. It takes computer simulation. This technique started in Insurance companies long time ago and eventually moved into banking. But now, even the Federal Reserve Bank of USA are printing money out of thin air. The banks no longer observe the fractional reserve ratio anymore. Why,cos the fiat money currency WILL be replaced by GOLD back currency very soon, may be by mid next year. So ask the actuary to do a calculation and you will find the odds of risk against safety ratio correlated to the factors that determine the gold market, in which case, on the long run VERY profitable. On the risk scale, the odds will be lessen as the time goes by but will be correlated to the factors based on the highly volatile energy market.......with hind sight, it suggests good....but the final nugget to this is the derivative market which shows signs of cracking up in the JP Morgan fiasco. That is the beginning, we saw it was US$2b but analyst put it at US$10b. Some extrapolate it to US$100b (cos it was hidden in derivatives) cos JP Morgan also suppress the silver market price. And u know to suppress worldwide silver price, ur capital has to be huge, so they has more than US$100b. Watch Rockefeller who is behind this. He is into banking. But we have seen nothing yet, this is just the starting point cos Federal Reserve has just started QE3 and buying mortgages from banks in US to hedge against derivative market. This is one big fiasco which will burn up US$600 trillion market value, a sure worldwide economic collapse. With this, gold backing Genneva will not collapse but stand to profit. So what is happening now to Genneva is very damaging to it, which i think could have benefited lots of normal people. If u hold gold, you will do well. Don just bla bla la, anyway i am not interested in your reply, might as well save your mental and finger effort. If you do, just amuse among yourselves. You lack knowledge and talk like a bunch of hens. (don mean to be rude). Nothing left to contribute. Adios.

Hi bro, thanks for sharing, sincerely I appreciate the time you take to reply. I kinda get your point on the first and last part but I am a bit lost on this part, can you help to explain further?

Quote "aronteh" : annual operating expenditure 40++% including rebate, agent comm, staffs salary and etc. You trading business will need to generate more than 200% return per annum just to break even from the 20% sales margin.

Why I didn't get it;

1. I am a forex gold trader, based on history chart as we all know, gold price has been increasing like nobody's business for the past few years. so it is somewhat linear. true?

2. (Please stay with me for this one) Based of fact, If you buy Tons of gold it will be cheaper than buying grams. so lets say current Market price is for 1kg is RM177,420.00 (actual current market price at the time I wrote this) if you buy by the TONS I am certain you can get 10-20% cheaper than normal price. So let say the actual price bought is RM 150,807.00 which is 15% less. The company has save RM 26,613.00. But the company sells it at 20% extra which sums up to RM 212,904.00. So the company gives 2% return to investors and 0.5% commission to agents for a period of 3 months with adds up to a total of RM 4,790.34 per month times that by 3 would be RM 14,371.02. So if we take this amount which the company profited earlier due to purchase price discount RM 26,613.00 and deduct the commission and stuffs which is RM 14,371.02 shouldn't it be that the company already profited RM 12,241.98? further to that the company also profit from the Gold future price which normally has increased.
errr... I believe you quoted the wrong person. The one with the mystery person story was from aronteh. Not me. smile.gif
*
Yes you are right, it is meant for aronteh, somehow it went to your post. Celicazpower, no use blogging here, they all in a team to conspire and spread flimsy fear mongering lies about Genneva. If you look at their posts, it is without fact, lots of assumptions and all sorts of low level arguments. I just wonder about their background and age. Anyone can hide behind a pseudo name and blog. you could be discussing with a low mentality person and wasting your time. Would you argue with a driver blogger when you are a forex trader?? They are not worth talking to. From their argument it is so damn shallow and my blogging is to show them how naive, conceited and shallow they are. But they act like educated idiots trying to mislead people. Once u put a post, it is like hens in a frenzy mood eating, making a lot of noise. Totally dumb down idiots and many of my friends don't blog here and cos the bloggers look like they have vested interests in Genneva case, many of them are competitors in gold and losing out biz to Genneva. Many of my friends laugh at many of these bloggers in this Genneva forum, they felt it a bunch of monkeys trying to make a point in English. when they take you thru their argument, you are lost trying to find out what that china man trying to speak 'financial' English. I don't think with my last post they can say anything but will just bla bla bla.....may be they will say...."u think u so clever why u so put gold in Genneva, that china apek company and got cheated. i told u so what, but u greedy and no hear we talk. he he he. u greedy now u pain who can help now ask mother how to do"........have a good day.

But based on what you just wrote, arent u walking down that same path? U say others are arguing without facts but how many facts have you provided yourself? From what ive read on this thread, many ppl have raised questions which have until now gone unanswered. Its pointless coming out here claiming to be mature and yet you go around calling others names. If you want others to respect you, then earn that respect. Argue like an adult.

Read my previous post!! Don bla bla bla! Do your homework before bla bla bla! You are just lazy to check and just pick one post and start your ignorant comment! Better you don reply bcos you are just a lazy blogger. If there are ten of you like this, i have to repeat 10 times. posts are still there in the pages, so go back and read what a blogger has said before. That is your job before you comment.....are you really a blogger or just a cheap shot! Tis what irritates people. No wonder it is the same old people blogging in concerted effort. my friends told me so!

Your assumption here is flawed. You are assuming that Genneva somehow has the Holy Grail of investment that will churn out legitimate returns very high in the double digit range and the only reason we do not know about this Holy Grail of investment is that they don't want copycats stealing the idea.

The main question is : If anyone here gets his/her hand on that Holy Grail of investment, why would they go through the trouble of setting up a company, hiring people, running promotional programs and inviting people to invest? Wouldn't it be a better idea for that person to borrow all he/she could and invest the money for himself/herself and then keeping all the returns from it? If they set up a company, they would have to share the returns and pay for the operating costs. Wouldn't that be counter productive?

If I had that Holy Grail of investment, I would borrow once, earn the returns and using my returns I would be able to repay my loans and have balance. If I re-invest my balance and do it repeatedly, I would have a free ticket to financial freedom land and live in the lap of luxury for the rest of my life. Why would I want to go to all the trouble to set up a company? Did that question ever occur to you?
*
So banks are in the same league, aren't they?? The Holy Grail of Investment too. Worse still, they now don't even have fractional reserve in their balance! Look into banks P&L, making huge returns using your money and paying u peanuts like 3.25% per year and you say "bravo, safe and sound, good returns"! What an idiot! ....and no complains. Why don't you ask the bank.....hello Mr. Bank,can you show me how you make the money and I want to know why pay only 3.25% PER YEAR. I want to know your Holy Grail of Investment (if they is such a term, my goodness what term is this) strategy.
Their financial statements are reported and you can check them. Use to report that in the newspaper! And nobody care to check, earning lots of money and paying peanuts!!!!!!!!! Your last paragraph is just your assumption......

Pro Genneva people and believers, can you share
1) how Genneva makes its money / returns without an investment license from BNM / SC?
2) how does Genneva guarantee its 'hibah', in gold price up and gold price down situations?

Share some numbers and the inner workings with us.  Make us believe its legit.  biggrin.gif
*
I can't help but laughed at your questions.

1) ask any one like banks how they make money from your deposits, hand you a paper book, and pay you a meager 3.25% per year and own all the big buildings in town. Check out what they own!! If your friends borrow your money from you, you give him a IOU paper then pay you 3.25% and you found out from your deposits with him, he is making tons of money and pay u peanuts like 3.25% PER year, i'm sure u will curse him and say what kind of friend is that!! May be don't, cos you are so satisfied with the arrangement. To trade gold, you don't need a LICENCE. You don't get it??

2) if i know how, i will start one like Genneva.........exactly, no one will share business secrets, why should I?? Then you a gold trader will start one. Please............find out how it is done. Hire an actuary.........let me know if you want the service. It is costly, all banks do that.....check out my previous posts. DON'T ASK STUPID QUESTIONS LIKE TELL ME HOW YOU MAKE MONEY. OUTLINE YOUR WORKINGS....NOBODY WILL ANSWER U. It is obvious. Ask the bank to work out how they decide to pay you 3.25% and not 5.5% when EPF a non financial institution can pay 5.5% per year.........watch out they could scam you money cos your EPF money they put in deposits in bank and only get 3.25% but EPF pays u 5.5% per year.........how can they??? OH......watch out, it is a scam! rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

From the statement i assume u know nothing about banking and financial industry.

Bank got money from depositor and pay FD 3% on average, 2% or less on normal saving.
Bank making money buy selling their long term loan like house , market now is about BLR 6.6% - (2%-2.6%) = 4%+- So they make 1% here.
Car loan 2%-3% it's flat rate so effectively is more than 3% pa.
Personal loan about 8%
Credit card 1.5% (highest risk ofcos higher rate)
Investment on company/stock etc (Capital Venture)
Other business loan ofcourse with interest charge not sure what the rate for now.

Yes it very safe, 200k is guarantee by our government.

Hulo alien, is all that they earn and can afford to buy those big buildings????????????? Look who is talking about knowing banking! In fact, how does big banks fail, lots fail in the US??? Also in the UK??? If it is that simple, with your examples, there isn't much left to buy big buildings etc etc......don't be naive. Your simple mind don't work out the strategies for banks. What was HSBC, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of England has in common??? What do Fed Res Bank of US earn their trillions?? and lots more! Why are all the banks in US failing and has to be bailed out?? WHY WHY??

Yes, RM250k (and not RM200k) is guaranteed by BNM, and how do BNM guarantee it???? Check that out. So you know a lot about banking and financial industry. blink.gif

Yea, take out your money and buy property.............hooray!!!! Speculate and speculate and then sell off with huge profit and make agents rich also. Better withdraw from Genneva and buy shop lots, office lots and houses, you can earn lots of money. When price high sell la, make lots of money. But remember 1996 and 1986! if you don't like properties, buy gold bars from gold trader, gold shops, they will sell you at spot price, 25% cheaper Genneva cos Genneva mark up 25% from spot price. BUT...but some months back, my friend complain to me where got....they charge him 20% mark up from spot price. He went to his friends gold shop and he said, ok i'll give you a friend's price but u cannot tell people, the Association is guarding this...17% mark from spot price. Oh...what is all this talk about Genneva being expensive. Then he said, shit, the goldsmith shop will charge me 25% on spot price when selling.....wah 20% charge on spot rate on buying and a 25% on spot price on selling...all in 45%, wonder gold can go up 45%. So i said, ok la. They are all fat cats, that is the industry. You can make your decision, and I tell you, most of you has got vested interest in Geneva's case cos you are their competitor. may be not, then the way you blog, something is up.............well not all of you.

After studying the claims by everyone here and in other sources, I would like to share some opinions on how this could be sustainable.

Genneva sells gold at a premium of say 25% with a contract for 2.5%*6 months return and promise to buy back the gold at spot price after contract ends. Which means in essence you are buying a call option for gold at a premium of 10% for a 6 month contract + giving a 6 month interest free loan on your 15% to Genneva.

In layman terms, Genneva is hoping that gold price does not rise above 10% in 6 months and using the interest from your "loan" to fund their operations, meantime you are hoping that gold will rise above 10% in 6 months and pocketing any of the returns above this 10%.  This is all hunky dory until 1 side does not honor the contract or the contract is not well-written in the first place.

This is all legit business. However, due to lack of regulations and a liquid market to trade in these contracts, investors are at the mercy of the company honoring their "hibah" payments and promise to buy back the gold.  Genneva must also ensure that their operating expenses are below the 10% including payments to their salesperson, marketing and operational activities.

It will only be a ponzi or scam when Genneva advertises guaranteed positive returns while not highlighting the risks.  Of course, who would want to invest in a risky investment right?  It will not make headlines.

So, in conclusion, the business can be real but only if you understand the risks which is not only gold price moving negatively but also the company giving fake promises.

I won't be going near this as I'd rather invest in a regulated and liquid market such as stocks, options and futures.

Can you lay out in point form (if u don't mind) the fake promises?? I may have missed out some which i may not be aware. tks. nod.gif nod.gif

i'm not out to convince anybody........i go paranoid with bloggers who don't talk with rational and yet they act like they know everything. You are right, raid on suspicion will apply to all, it is a tool with absolute power. It can shut down any business, ANY. And i am sure you know the implication. We cannot say it cannot happen to you, cos if you are a gold trader, it may come to you. The legislation following this case will set in motion future controls which may not be very pleasant for gold traders and gold shops. This case is a steeping stone to controls, Like I said, if you check on the inside page of yesterday's star report, you will get a clue. The writing is on the wll. Still some bloggers bla bla bla like a blind sheep. Just like USA's "war on terror". With that policy, it can eliminate countries which they suspect to have terrorist and declare war on it. This is absolute power unlimited. MLM can be scam. So, what cannot be scam. Ppl do a calculation using simple arithmatic, wow they know already it is scam. Try using arithmatic and calculate how MLM does it pay out, wow, it looks like scam too. No no no, business model with simple arithmetic are for std 6 scammers. No one will reveal what is their strategy but will say only those that are obvious. Don't be naive it is only the 25% mark up that Genneva does over spot...everybody knows that. Even gold smith shop does the same except of 25% maybe lower. Anyone can see this. Geneva business model is more than that. You ask an actuary about this.........do a computer simulation then you can know whether workable or not. It is not a night's work on our pc and bingo, it won't last, it won't last, it is ponzi, it is scam and wait, no, it is a bird, oh no it is dog bird and so on, crying wolf wolf and bigger wolf. It's unbelievable how people blog! sad.gif sad.gif smile.gif smile.gif

If you are confident, just wait 2 weeks and all things will be cleared, why need to keep saying same things all over again. In fact, I do not see any solid points from your posts. All about other things but Genneva.

I did buy geneva gold before but cash out because i need money for my personal thing. So i have nothing to gain, just like what i said. What i post just now, sorry, you don't know how to read between the lines. This is a public blog, i could be roasted cos there are cyber troops on constant alert. These are thinktanks. When things happen later, come back to my posts again. Anyway, i am RETIRED FROM this blog. Have fun but my personal opinion, don't waste too much time. If you look at the number of time i post, not many, my friends has warned me.

Nothing to convince since day one, just like to argue facts vs fiction. Convince who, what do i get? A million people will say thank you? Ppl will join me so i can have a fat commission? I am not even working in Genneva! hmmmm. Blogging ONLY la, brother! When i feel right, i want to blog that i am right, with rational facts and figures. That's all folks! Good night!

Of course, there comes lots of bla bla bla from others.........crying foul when ppl are not interested.
