Foreclosures by creditors

occur when a borrower defaults on a loan, allowing the creditor to take possession of the secured property. The process typically involves the creditor initiating a legal action, which can lead to the property being sold at a public auction to recover the debt. Creditors can also use other remedies, such as a private sale or, in some cases, a strict foreclosure, where they may take the property to satisfy the debt. 

The foreclosure process

  • Payment default: A borrower fails to make payments as agreed upon in the loan contract.
  • Notice of default: The lender typically sends a notice of default after the first missed payment, and foreclosure proceedings can begin after about three to six months of missed payments.
  • Public auction: In many cases, the property is sold at a public auction, often held at a courthouse, to the highest bidder.
  • Credit bid: If no one bids high enough to cover the debt, the creditor can “credit bid” and take ownership of the property themselves.
  • Strict foreclosure: In some situations, the creditor may be able to take the property directly in satisfaction of the debt, without a public sale.
  • Private sale: A creditor can also sell the collateral through a private sale, which may result in higher returns for everyone involved. 

What happens after the sale

  • Transfer of ownership: After a court confirms the sale, the sheriff’s office issues a new deed to the new owner, transferring ownership from the original homeowner.
  • Surplus funds: If the sale price is more than the amount owed, the surplus funds go to the court. The court will use them to pay outstanding liens, such as tax liens, and any remaining money is given to the homeowner. 

How to avoid foreclosure

  • Contact the lender: Reach out to your lender as soon as possible if you are worried about missing a payment. You may be able to work out a repayment plan or a forbearance plan, which temporarily postpones payments.
  • Contact a housing counselor: A housing counselor can help you evaluate your financial situation and options.
  • Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure: Some states allow you to voluntarily turn the property over to your lender to avoid the foreclosure process

  • Meeting information: Note the date, time, and location of the board meeting.
  • Dividend declaration:
    • State the type of dividend (interim, final, or special).
    • Specify the dividend amount per share.
    • Set the record date (the date a shareholder must be registered to receive the dividend) and the payment date.
  • Company details: Include the company name, address, and registration number.
  • Attendance: List all directors who were present and those who were absent.
  • Resolutions: Clearly document the resolution to pay the dividend.

II. Despite the fact that it is the developing countries must take responsibility for rooting out corruption, the West can do much to help.

Every bribe that is taken has a payer, and too often the bribe payer is a corporation from an advanced industrial country or some one acting on its behalf. Therefore, at a minimum, the western governments and corporations should not be complicit.

10. According to the passage, which of the following statement(s) is/are true?

I. US Government’s stance on bank secrecy account, which facilitates corruption by providing corrupt officials with a safe haven for their funds, will limit bank secrecy and thus help fight corruption.

II. Contributions to election fund in some countries before election that oblige politicians to repay major donors with favours is a source of overt corruption

III. When the World Bank confronts a poor country plagued with corruption, its challenge is to ensure that its own money is not tainted and gets to projects and people that need it. Only this way the Bank’s primary responsibility to fight poverty could be fulfilled.

do not, on average, do as well as resource poor countries- is the prevalence of corruption, too often aided and abetted by companies that would like to get the resources they sell at discount prices.

The US under President Jimmy Carter made an important contribution in passing the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which made bribery by American companies anywhere in the world illegal.

The OECD’s convention on bribery was another step in the right direction. Making all payments to governments transparent would bring further progress, and western governments could encourage this simply by tying this requirement to tax deductibility.

It is equally important to address bank secrecy, which facilitates corruption by providing corrupt dictators’ wives a safe haven for their funds.

In August 2001, just before the terrorist attacks on America, the US government vetoed an OECD effort to limit secret bank accounts.

While the government has since reversed its stance on bank secrecy for terrorists, it has not done so for corrupt officials. A strong stand by the World Bank would enhance its credibility in the war on corruption.

Those who criticize the Bank’s stance on corruption do not do so because they favour corruption. Some critics worry about corruption in the corruption agenda itself; that the fight will be used as a “cover” for cutting aid to countries that displease the US administration.

Such concerns have found resonance in the seeming incongruity of the Bank’s tough talk on corruption and simultaneous plans to expand lending to Iraq.

No one is like to certify that Iraq is corruption free-or even ranks low on corruption internationally.

The main strident criticism, however, comes from those who worry that the Bank is straying away from its mandate.

Of course, the Bank must do everything that it can to ensure that its money is well spent, which means fighting both corruption and incompetence.

But money itself will not solve all problems and a single minded focus on fighting corruption will not bring development.

On the contrary, it might merely divert attention from other issues of no less important for those struggling to lift themselves out of poverty. (The author was Joseph D. Stiglitz, the Nobel laureate and Professor of Economics in Columbia University, USA. The above passage was adapted from his article published in an Indian daily in October 2006).

7. Which one of the following titles could be most suitable for the passage?

(a) The World Bank’s aid to developing countries

(b) The World Bank’s fight against corruption
