New Service From Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC Provides Increased Returns on Deposits for Investors and High Net Worth Individuals



Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC - a financial services and consulting group, has launched its "Alternative Banking" service. The new service surveys deposit rates across banks and coordinates deposits into FDIC insured accounts. Depositors can realize increased rates on deposits of up to one percent or more over average.

Coral Springs, FL - Individuals and others with a need to deposit large sums of money to back businesses, provide operating reserves, avoid market volatility, or just simply provide secure access to their wealth are faced with record low interest rates. In the current financial environment this means deposits typically provide earned interest rates of less than one percent against deposits.

The new service available from Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC allows individuals, companies, municipalities and others a way to access rates not normally realized. Traditionally individuals and others may have researched bank rates through online services, however, most of these services offer only a cursory review. Veriloquent builds personal one on one relationships with the banks it surveys. "We maintain a comprehensive database of current rates and constantly survey the banks to determine the actual premiums being offered," said Todd Billings, CEO of Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC. Billings continued to say, "Within the industry this is nothing new... rates fluctuate due to the competitive marketplace and each individual bank's balance sheet. What is new is that Veriloquent has standardized the process into something meaningful and our clients appreciate the one point of contact even though deposits could be spread amongst multiple banks."

A distinct advantage that Veriloquent offers is a keen understanding of the banking industry and the ability to structure and monitor deposits in such a way that makes sense to the client and the bank. Veriloquent acts as a conduit, using the vernacular and knowledge of the industry to negotiate and secure superior rate exceptions and terms. Veriloquent in essence provides its clients an "insider" to navigate the financial waters.

Because of Veriloquent's Alternative Banking service, clients receive special terms and rate exceptions on deposits. The primary benefit to the client is a higher earned interest rate on deposits and a single point of contact to manage the accounts since deposits could be spread around several banks. Ultimately, clients receive a level of service that would be hard to manage or receive on their own.

The Alternative Banking service is available within Veriloquent's services platform, or can be contracted separately through an independent scope of work. Individuals looking to contract the service separately can engage Veriloquent with a minimum of $1MM in deposits. Individuals interested in contracting for services should contact Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC directly at 1 (888) 684-2999.

New Service Offering From Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC Facilitates Effective Management and Disposition of Non-Performing Mortgage Note Pools.

Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC - a financial services and consulting group, has applied its flat fee based services platform towards the management and disposition of non-performing real estate mortgage note pools. The service allows investors a means to effectively coordinate advisors and manage investments in non-performing notes without investing in infrastructure and hiring expensive staff.

Coral Springs, FL - With the real estate market and economy struggling to recover, many banks and institutions are bundling real estate notes and selling off the assets.

Veriloquent Wealth Advisors, LLC steps in to fill the gap between the investors and the management of the notes so advisors can be coordinated and disposition strategies analyzed and recommended.

What Does Warren Buffett Like To Read?

Much thanks to Market Folly for publishing this list:

Warren Buffett's Recommended Reading List

We're back with the latest iteration of our recommended reading list series. This time around we feature the favorite reads of none other than the Oracle of Omaha himself, Warren Buffett. Over time, he has recommended various books and here is the comprehensive list:

Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits by Phil Fisher: Regarding this book, Buffett said that, "I sought out Phil Fisher after reading his Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits and Other Writings. When I met him, I was as impressed by the man as by his ideas. A thorough understanding of the business, obtained by using Phil’s techniques . . . enables one to make intelligent investment commitments."

The Smartest Guys in the Room by Bethany McLean: This was recommended in Buffett's annual letter from 2003 and details the rise and fall of Enron.

The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham: This is an obvious choice as Buffett has said that this is "the most important investment book" and in particular has highlighted chapters 8 and 20 as essential.

John Bogle on Investing: The First 50 Years by John Bogle. This book is more aimed at the fund investing crowd given Bogle's expertise (Vanguard funds). In the past, Buffett has advocated investors who don't have much time on their hands to invest in index funds.

The Essays of Warren Buffett by Warren Buffett & edited by Larry Cunningham: There's no better way to learn from Buffett than through his own words. Buffett would agree as he says "The most representative book on my thinking is what Larry Cunningham put together."

Sam Walton: Made in America by Sam Walton: Another read Buffett recommended back in 2003, this book details how Walmart was built from the ground up

Pay Attention To The ISM Number!

I came across this chart yesterday which compares the ISM (Institute for Supply Management) Index to the S&P 500 on a year over year change basis. Next time you are listening to, watching or reading your favorite financial news make sure you pay attention to the ISM number.

To read a little more on the ISM -

Will China Become The New World Power?

For those of you not familiar with Jim Rogers, here is an excerpt from a blog devoted to his thoughts:

"After attending Yale and Oxford University, Jim Rogers co-founded the Quantum Fund, a global-investment partnership. During the next 10 years, the portfolio gained 4200%, while the S&P 500 rose less than 50%. Rogers then decided to retire – at age 37. " --http://jimrogers-investments.blogspot.com/

Anyone that can turn $1 into $4200 in a ten year period is probably worth listening to. Imagine investing $1MM with the Quantum fund and having $4.2 Billion!!! Truly remarkable.

One of his recent interviews discusses China:

China Has Huge Reserves. The West Huge Debts.
"China saved up huge reserves for a rainy day, now it's raining and they're spending those reserves. You contrast that with the UK or the US for instance which has no reserves, has nothing but huge debts and they're borrowing, or printing, or taxing to spend their money… I'd rather be in the East than in the West."

History has shown us that world power tends to shift to the people and places that produce true economic value and have money. Unfortunately, for this great country of ours, we have become such avid consumers that we have to literally borrow billions of dollars every year from China to keep our economy from completely melting down.

For those of you who like to do your homework, check out the numbers directly from the US Treasury website. As of July 2009, China held a little over $800 Billion of US debt. http://www.treas.gov/tic/mfh.txt
