		<description><![CDATA[According to the reports by the panel of expert analysts at the London Bullion Market Association, the prices on silver will not rise up to a remarkable extend as expected the same in April 2012. However, gold will display its flares in 2012 because of ongoing precious metals price prediction competition. As statistics from the competition on the prices, gold appears to touch elation unlike its counterpart the white metal.

From the analysts' forecasts, it is clear that the average silver price in 2012 was US$33.98, but it shored up to a height of $44.49 that was a consecutive predication representing a substantial 39% increase.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Should you hold Alternative Investments in your portfolio?

So you've decided to reduce your exposure to equities in order to avoid the price volatility that seems to be driven by the latest piece of political rhetoric about national debt or economic growth. You're no longer seeing the value of your investments rise and fall by considerable margins on a daily basis, and you're sitting on a nice pile of 'safe' cash. But you probably also need to find a home for your capital where it will grow at least in line with inflation, hopefully generate some income, whilst sharing little correlation with the performance of equities, bonds and other traded financial instruments.

So now is the time you start to consider alternative investments.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the current investing climate many investors are seeking out alternatives to traditional investment assets in an effort to boost poor returns and bolster the limp performance of their pension portfolios. While stocks and shares continue to display the kind of up-and-down volatility that would make a rollercoaster jealous, real-assets including fine wine, stamps, land and forestry have all continued to grow in values as rising global incomes combine with a growing global population to boost demand against a backdrop of limited supply.

Whenever supplies of an asset are limited and demand increases, we see the value increase as buyers compete for the best assets, so those investors in control of finite resources are likely to continue to capture capital growth regardless of the performance of the wider economy.

Whilst in is certainly true that some alternative investment assets rely on the existence of wealth for their end-use market; for example stamps and fine wine rely on the existence of wealthy buyers, it is also true that certain essential assets will enjoy a demand even if the global economy were to collapse tomorrow. These safe haven alternative investments include agricultural land, energy-generating assets, infrastructure and commodity driven properties such as forestry investments.

There is a limited global stock of land suitable for agricultural production and demand for food commodities and feedstock for animal feed and biofuels in growing exponentially as developing nations expend their populace and rising incomes lead to greater consumption of commodities.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whilst forestry investments are seen by many institutional and private investors as a potential safe haven from the volatility associated with traditional asset s like equities, at the same time there are a number of variables linked to the general economy that do have a significant bearing on the performance of the asset class.

For the most part, current market demand for timber in any given location is the biggest influence over timber prices. As with any commodity, when stocks of the product are high and demand is suppressed then prices fall as assets are sold off at knockdown prices to create revenue. Likewise, when supplies are limited and demand is high, then we see the opposite happen; commodity prices rise as buyers compete for the best quality and indeed quantity.

In fact, it is worth touching on the cyclical nature of any commodity market, but especially soft-commodities.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Landlords' frustrations against agencies

Having come across various articles, forums and comments I feel it is absolutely necessary to address several issues that have been aimed against letting agencies by various landlords over the years. I completely understand the frustration and stress that some landlords must have gone through while dealing with a letting agency, although that should not be the reason not to trust every other agency and not considering an option of having your property managed by an agency again.

Being a landlord is not as easy as some may think, especially if you are only starting to build your portfolio and are still in a process of learning the legal aspects of renting the property. At the same time you want your property to be occupied by serious, respectable and fair tenants.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Agricultural Productivity and Commodity Prices

This article covering the effect of commodity prices on agriculture investments has been produced for the purpose of providing quality reference material for the prospective Investor considering the sector, specifically for the Investor wishing to better understand to relationship and influence of commodity prices and agricultural productivity in agriculture investments.

Investors are attracted to the agriculture sector for a number of reasons; not least the undeniable fundamental trends of growing demand and contracting supply likely to drive higher asset prices and revenues in the future. Farm revenues at the very basic level are a combination of agricultural yield multiplied by commodity prices, so to better understand the performance of this asset class, we should look at commodity prices and productivity in a historical context in an effort to ascertain whether higher prices are here to stay, or part of a longer term price cycle.

At present, humankind utilises approximately 50 per cent of accessible, productive land for agriculture. Put another way, half of the Earth's surface that is not desert, water, ice or some other such unusable space such as urbanised areas is used to grow crops.

With current emphasis firmly upon increasing productivity to meet current and future demand for food, feed and fuel from an expanding, wealthier global population, the fact that we only use half of the usable global stock of farmland indicates that we should be able to simply bring more land under agricultural cultivation through the application of well-placed infrastructure and technology investments.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As stock markets and bond markets continue to display the sort of volatility that causes Investors to break out into a cold sweat, many are starting to investigate real-asset alternatives to traditional financial assets in an effort to identify opportunities to capture growth and income that is not wholly reliant on the performance of financial markets or the general economy.

There is certainly an increasing appetite for real-asset alternative investments, from fine wine and art, through to land and collectibles, yet a lack of credible performance data and regulation leave many at a loss as to where might be a suitable home for their hard-earned savings in the alternative investment space.

Whilst assets like fine wine and art rely almost entirely on the wealthy as an end market, growing economies in developing nations are creating a super-size middle class which is consuming more resources and consumables such as food, fuel, cars and energy at an astonishing rate, creating a huge spike in demand that shows no sign of abating, creating investable opportunities for savvy Investors able to identify those areas where demand is strong and fundamental limits in the supply chain create short, mid and,long-term value growth for those in control of such assets.

Here are a few examples of real-asset alternative investments that have displayed some extremely desirable characteristics such as capital preservation and a hedge against inflation throughout the last four years of economic turmoil.

Renewable Energy Investments

As populations continue to expand, natural energy resources continue to diminish, international legislation combined with government incentives create profitable opportunities for those in control of energy-producing assets that do not depend on the input of natural resources and therefore generate energy - which can be sold at a profit - during any economic climate.

In the UK, government backed feed in tariffs (FiT) creates opportunity as energy companies must purchase any electricity you generate and feed into the grid. So those in control of solar panels, wind turbines and other energy-producing assets capture market-beating income of between 10% and 20% per annum for up to 25 years. No income-generating financial assets share dividends or bonds can do that.

Forestry Investments

Timber, when considered as an alternative investment asset class is quite unique, not only does the price of timber rise over time - usually at or above the rate of inflation, at the same time trees continue to grow into larger assets with more timer to sell per tree.]]></description>

And that email got me to thinking about how I feel with regards to folks like Porter, Peter Schiff, Jim Sinclair, Eric Sprott, Mike Maloney, Rick Rule, Gerald Celente and James Turk.

It got me thinking about how I would NEVER be able to sit one on one with any of them and ask questions. I'm not about to be invited to dinner or brought into a conference call or sent an email looking for my advice.

And whether you agree with them or not isn't the issue.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The CAPM is a model used to determine an investor's "expected return," or how much percentage profit that a company investor should logically demand as a "fair" return for investing in a company.

To find this, another question may be asked: How much is the logical "fair" percentage return that an investor should get if he invests in an individual company (with relatively high risk) instead of putting his money in government bonds which are assumed to be "risk free" and instead of putting his money in the general stock market assumed to have "medium" risk?

Obviously, it's only "fair" that that the investor gets a return of higher than the government bond rate (because the individual company has higher risk). It's also only fair that he should expect a return higher than the general stock market return, because the individual company has higher risk than the "medium risk" general stock market. So again, how much exactly should this investor fairly earn as a minimum expected return?

This is where the CAPM or Capital Asset Pricing Model comes in.]]></description>

However, it's not always as simple as that and there will be an element of risk to your funds, but investing for growth can prove to be a very satisfying way to make your money work harder.

A quick word on risk:

Generally speaking the higher the level of risk involved in your chosen investment the higher the rate of interest you are likely to see. Some investments will be more risky than others and you should think carefully about the level of risk you can afford to take before you start investing.

Five Steps:

1) Choose wisely.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The most popular type of investments that people make are in collective investment schemes. This makes a lot of sense as it reduces risk for the investor.

Collective investments are funds where the monies of a large number of investors are pooled together under professional investment management. The investment manager then acts collectively on their behalf.

The most popular collectives are unit trusts, investment trusts and Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICs).]]></description>

If any more structures went up, he warned the city, the island would sink into the Hudson River.

To head off this expected calamity, Lozier suggested to the city's mayor that a chunk of Manhattan's northern end be hacked off, towed down the Hudson, and then attached to the southern tip. This, Lozier explained, would redistribute the island's weight and ensure no further sinking.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Understanding investment

Investment can seem like an attractive option for increasing return on your capital, especially when interest rates on savings accounts are so low.

Whether you are looking to invest yourself, or for someone to invest your cash on your behalf, there are several factors you should consider before you begin.

How much can you afford to invest? 

It is important to recognise that when you begin investing your money you will introduce an element of risk to your capital. Generally the higher the potential for return the higher the risk to your capital, so don't be sucked in by high rates but consider carefully how the investment would sit with your attitude to risk.

Before you start investing you should ensure that you finances are in order and that you are not investing with money that you can afford to risk losing. For example, will you be able to pay all your debts easily? Do you have a buffer of savings to fall back on? Many experts recommend that you have the equivalent of at least three months wages to fall back on in case of hard times.

Why are you investing?

Before deciding on the right investment option for you, you should have some sort of financial goal in mind.]]></description>

The index provides investors with a measure of the investment performance of a large pool of individual agricultural properties acquired in the private market for investment purposes. According to the index, US farmland returned 8.6% in 2010, and 5.85% to quarter 3 in 2011.

At the same time, incomes in developing economies are rising, causing a shift toward a more expensive and more resource intensive westernised diet based on meat. Considering that 1kg of meat requires the input of 7kg of grain as animal feed, this combination of more people and higher consumption per capita adds tremendous strain to already stretched agricultural productivity.

		<description><![CDATA[Investors seeking income can no longer rely on share dividends, and saving deposit accounts often generate a negative return when adjusted for inflation. Whilst this scenario looks set to continue for the foreseeable future, we must look elsewhere for our annual pay-outs.

Agriculture Investments

At the most basic level, agriculture investments based on the acquisition of agricultural property assets generate income, either from leased payments from tenant farmers, or shared revenue from harvests when farmed as part of a contract farming agreements (CFA).

There are a number of options for investors to consider, allowing smaller investors to take a direct stake in productive farmland and benefitting from a share of the annual income as well as potential capital growth as land values rise over time.

Such options exist in Latin America, Australia and Africa, and investors should be encouraged to seek independent advice as to the suitability of any such scheme to ensure suitability for the investors specific circumstances and attitude to risk.

Renewable Energy Investments

As the global population grows demanding more energy, and natural resources such as coal oil and gas continue to diminish, the world turns to renewable sources capable of supply energy in perpetuity without causing damage to the environment and delicate global ecosystem.

Around the world, governments incentivise investment in renewable energy technologies such as wind, solar, tidal, geo thermal, waste to energy and anaerobic digestion through feed-in-tariffs, where each unit of energy fed into the national grid is paid for at a set rate which is invariably linked to inflation.

This present those looking for income capture annual revenue that shares no correlation with traditional income investment assets or financial market fundamentals. Investors may choose to establish solar panels or wind turbines, collecting feed in tariffs from energy generated.]]></description>

This is a part of an annual review required by the Dodd-Frank law, with the intention of determining whether or not any of the big banks are vulnerable to collapse.

Clearly, the last thing the Fed wants is to be blindsided like they were when Lehman Brothers went under and when they were forced to institute TARP. In fact, some think that the collapse of another major financial entity would be disastrous, and would be enough to tip the economy into a full-blown recession.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The investment performance of the agriculture sector can be monitored via a number of devices and measures that track the performance of traditional investment assets such as quoted equities, as well as a range of measures that reflect price movements in alternative investment assets within the agriculture space such as farmland.

In reality, the agriculture sector as a whole relies on a combination of demand for its products, weighed against agricultural productivity. When demand for food, livestock feed and biofuels is high then soft-commodity prices rise, as is also the case when poor productivity creates the same widening of the gap between supply and demand. On the other hand, if demand falls back, or bumper harvests create an oversupply of produce, prices fall.

If one is able to gain an understanding of current productivity and demand dynamics, then one is best able to predict the true performance of the sector as a whole.

The performance of agricultural equities alone - as measured by agricultural indices - does not truly reflect the state of fundamentals that support the sector.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Newspaper headlines of late are quick to detail what little sign of national economic stability they can; some job growth here or a sign of stock market recovery there. And while it may be true that the S&#038;P 500 is up 77 percent from the lows of March 2009-especially good for big-time stock market gamblers-median household incomes are falling at faster rates during this so-called "recovery period," than they were during the actual recession years. As you can see from the chart below since the beginning of 2009 the median income has dropped sharply while unemployment rises significantly.

In the meantime, the National Association of Realtors (NRA), in addition to providing evidence of continued decline in home sales, also reported a record-high affordability index, which when taken together simply do not add up.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the current global climate, defined by low interest rates; high inflation; volatile investment markets; and poor short term visibility, investors are seeking out alternative investments that generate growth and income that does not depend on traditional market performance.

As such, much attention has been focussed on timber investments as a tool to preserve capital, hedge inflation and generate superior income in a low-risk environment.

Institutional Investors such as pension funds, university endowments and hedge funds have long known the benefits of investing in timber assets, with many such as the Yale University Endowment Fund holding 28 per cent of their investment portfolio in real-asset alternative investments including tropical forestry investments and farmland.

Timber investments are seen as generating non-correlative investment returns due to the fact that the majority of revenues is sourced from the biological growth of the tree, with only a small percentage of return attributed to timber price growth or land value appreciation. One credible university study found that over 60 per cent of returns from forestry investments can be attributed to the 'biological hedge'.

Demand for timber products remains strong, and rises roughly in line with population expansion, a factor compounded by economic expansion in developing nations leading to a n increase in consumption of timber products per capita as new homes and other infrastructure in developed.

Currently, around 30 per cent of global timber supplies are sourced from illegal logging, and a further 40 per cent form unsustainable sources. The future demand dynamics then indicates that timber investments are likely to continue to outperform other assets such as equities, as they have for the past 30 years.

Taking a very broad view, forestry investment returns can be enhanced and potential downside risk substantially reduced through the application of strategic species and location selection, combined with experienced forestry management to create a sustainable and profitable investment model.

Broadly speaking, the faster a tree grows into commercially viable timber, the greater the return on investment, so selecting fast-growing tropical timber species is the first step in consolidating profitable forestry investments.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Forests have long been dubbed as "the lungs of the Earth." Their carbon storing capacity has attracted green investments from companies and governments looking to reduce their carbon footprint by restoring and preserving forestry landscapes. A recent study by Yale University, however, revealed a culprit, right in the back yard of most forests, which is likely to alter the way emission reductions in some forestry offset projects are being accounted for.

Yale researchers studied samples collected by the United States Geological Survey from over 4,000 U.S. streams and rivers.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TEAK - the truly 'Hard Asset'

Plantation Asset Management Limited now offers one of the best opportunities for private investors to add long-term value accreditation to their portfolios by owning their own teak plantation on specially selected land in Brazil. Projected returns - based on historic price data and industry production averages - show that Â£10,000 invested now will produce a total return of Â£140,000 over 25 years. These returns reflect only 5% annual price inflation for teak wood, which has in fact seen average annual price rises of 5.2% over the past 30 years.

And all this comes with the major advantage that Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax breaks exist for all forestry investments, so that you can lock away assets for your retirement, or your children and grandchildren without worrying about the long-term tax implications.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The current economic climate, defined by low interest rates, volatile equity markets and poor short-term visibility, is leading Investors of all shapes and sizes to investigate alternative investment assets in an effort to boost portfolio performance whilst also reducing exposure to traditional assets like equities.

Forestry is one sector where investment returns are driven more by the biological growth of trees into valuable timber than traditional growth fundamentals. Forestry also provides a shelter for capital, and superior compound growth, even during falling markets.

Institutional Investors have led the charge into forestry investments with Pension Funds and Hedge Funds acquiring timberland properties as part of their diversification strategy. This has led to the emergence of a plethora of forestry investment products aimed at the retail Investor.

With options to acquire small forestry plots within large, managed plantations in Brazil, Costa Rica, Panama, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Thailand, Nicaragua, Australia and New Zealand, potential Investors could be forgiven for feeling confused, and the lack of quality information about the sector for Financial Advisors leads many to divert their Clients attention to other, more traditional investment assets like residential or commercial property, or even equities.

In this article we look into the main concerns regarding these retail forestry investments, and look to how risk can be properly assessed and mitigated.

The main issue regarding the vast majority of direct forestry investment products on the market is the basic structuring of the product.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many Eurozone leaders have hoped that they can rescue Greece's imminent bankruptcy through more debt, fiscal austerity, privatization and reform and postpone the inevitable until 2013, when the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) should provide an orderly planned state insolvency.

UBS AG, which operates in more than 40 countries and considered as the world's second largest manager of private wealth assets, with over CHF 2.2 trillion in invested assets, thinks otherwise. The company believes a default will be triggered before the end of the year. "The 'voluntary' debt restructuring agreed on over the summer is already likely to saddle Greece with a selective default rating," said UBS Research Focus in October 2011, "and we would go so far as to say that the country can no longer escape a full default."

The prediction now seems ominous after prime minister Papandreou announced an unexpected decision to hold a poll on additional budget cuts as conditions for a second aid package.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Introduction

With base rates at historical lows, many savers and investors are frustrated with the interest rates that are being offered by banks and other financial institutions.

In fact it will not surprise you to learn that a bank considers its customers as it cheapest source of funds, offering less than half a percent on current accounts and up to a generous 3 to 4 % on longer term savings and bonds.

With credit again starting to become tight between banks the London Interbank Offer Rate known as LIBOR is starting to rise well above the bank base rate. With the base rate at 0.5% 1 week Libor is now 0.91% and 1 year Libor is now 1.699%.

If you also factor in that inflation is running around 4% to 4.5% with the current interest rates being offered, savers and investors are losing purchasing power by holding their savings in the banks.

It used to be considered very safe to hold your money in a savings account, but as the current credit crisis has highlighted the banks are not as safe as savers once thought. Even though most governments around the world have guarantees in place to protect savers funds, it should be noted these guarantees only cover in the UK up to 85,000.]]></description>

The stakeholders that are involved with the decision on Greece are experiencing a stalemate. But time is running out as the Greek bond yields are fiercely increasing. The longer they take to make a decision, the less room for error.

So what are the stakeholders actually saying and what do they actually want from the deal?

Germans and other EU Superpowers

Germans are asking for Greeks to use their properties as collateral in exchange for bailout funds.

The catch is that the properties will be under German control.]]></description>

Put and Call stock options give you the "option" but not the obligation to sell or buy a stock at a pre-determined price that you choose, during a certain time frame that YOU specify.

With the Selling Naked Puts strategy you sell put options on stocks you don't own but you would not mind owning. With this strategy you get paid a premium fee so that someone has the right to sell their stocks to you at a price you decide.

With the selling Covered Call option strategy, you basically sell call options against stocks you already own. This is a great strategy if you own stocks that are just sitting idly in your brokerage account and you don't know whether to sell them or not.]]></description>

The last 6 or 7 years have been filled with uncertainty for people whose serious retirement money is tied up in traditional retirement accounts like IRAs and 401(k)s. Some have seen as much as 30% of their retirement funds disappear into thin air.

The question on everyone's mind is how to protect your money from market uncertainty and how do you instead create stability?

Will Rogers is quoted as saying that "people are more concerned with the return of their money than with the return on their money." This is especially true for those who are still smarting from the losses they've experienced over the past few years.

Douglas Andrew of Missed Fortune has been a financial strategist and retirement specialist for the past 34 years. In his experience, the best vehicle for growing your serious money while avoiding the risks of market volatility is indexed universal life insurance.

This strategy requires you to maximum fund an insurance contract and the return the insurance company credits is then linked to an index such as the S&#038;P 500, the Euro Stock Index or the Dow Jones.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing stimulates ingenuity like difficult circumstances. For instance, in our current out-of-breath economy, borrowing money is considerably tougher than it was just a few years ago. This is especially true when working with traditional lending sources that have raised fees and tightened credit standards on borrowers.

The tougher lending environment has also sparked a number of creative solutions such as person-to-person lending.

		<description><![CDATA[Let's suppose you wanted to borrow $100,000.

As your lender hands you the check, you ask them exactly when you'll be required to pay this loan back. They respond, "Don't worry, I'll tell you when it's time to pay it back."

You enquire further about the interest rate you'll be paying and the response is much the same, "Don't worry, I'll tell you the interest rate I'm charging when it's time to start paying the money back."

Under these conditions, how safe would you feel in endorsing that check? Most people would have alarm bells going off in all directions. Yet this is essentially what most people are doing when they place their money in an IRA or 401(k).

They're putting money into those accounts and it's entirely up to the government through Congress or the IRS to tell you when it's okay to pull that money out and how much in taxes you'll be paying on it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With our government staring down the barrel of nearly $62 trillion in unfunded liabilities, it's easy to see why Social Security has become such a hot button issue today. That's $62 trillion that the government has obligated itself to pay out in benefits, but it doesn't have a dime of this money in its coffers at the moment.

That's money that has been withheld from our paychecks in order to pay past users of the Social Security system. When the Social Security program was instituted in 1935, there were approximately 15 workers paying into the system for every person who was receiving benefits.

Those numbers have steadily shifted until today we only have 2-3 workers paying into the system for every person receiving benefits.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A common question that comes up when discussing the Missed Fortune strategies and cash accumulation inside indexed universal life insurance is the one that asks, "If what you're advocating really works, then why isn't everyone doing it?"

It's a fair question, though it fails to consider the possibility that what everybody else is doing may be the wrong thing.

For starters, it is true that the superior savings methods that we teach are only used by perhaps the top 1% or less of Americans. But it's actually a good thing that more people aren't utilizing these strategies.

Only a tiny fraction of Americans are familiar with the specific sections of the IRS Code that allow your money to accumulate tax free, that allow access to your money tax free and allow that money to be transferred tax free when you die.

Think about it.

If the majority of Americans truly understood and utilized those sections of the IRS Code, it's a safe bet that the IRS would quickly change or eliminate those provisions. These are not carefully guarded secrets; they are simply a part of the tax code that remains largely unknown, even to many professional accountants and tax advisors.

Those financial professionals who have been shown the relevant sections of the code during a 3 day Missed Fortune training almost universally say, "I simply didn't know what I didn't know."

The same can be said for millions of people who continue to pump savings into their IRAs and 401(k)s, where the tax-deferred status of their money will cost them dearly when they start to withdraw their funds.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There has been a surprising, although not fully unanticipated, rise in the amount of alternative investors over recent years and various specialist investment companies now exist to cater for this demand by offering investments that are not only lucrative, but are also environmentally friendly.

Investing in our own planet is becoming big business these days and now there are a number of ways solo investors and larger companies and organisations can make money whilst concentrating on reducing their own carbon emissions.

Carbon Trading

Carbon trading is basically an economical approach to reducing pollution and the resultant build up of green house gasses in the earth's atmosphere which in turn leads to climate change and global warming, and so far it has been very effective. Industries that emit pollutants into the atmosphere are now required to purchase permits to do so. The total amount they are permitted to pollute comes under strict controls.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A recent article in the NY Times examined the case of a Northern California forest, which is not cashing in so much on the timber it produces, but on keeping its trees standing. The forest trust managing the lot has adopted a new management paradigm, which spares most of its trees, preserves the rich biodiversity, stores carbon and filters drinking water all the while earning a substantial income for its owners- in the millions to be exact.

The majority of forestry investments rely on income from sales of timber and timber products. With the construction and biomass industries gaining momentum, timber as a commodity has enjoyed increasing demand in recent years.]]></description>

Moreover, an increasing number of governments are considering ecotourism as a means to promote sustainable forestry management and support local communities.

Despite the grave economic situation in the last couple of years, according to the World Tourism Organisation (WTO), international tourism has demonstrated healthy growth, with almost 5% in the first half of 2011, setting a new record of 440 million arrivals, according to the UN WTO. Moreover, in the UNWTO long-term forecast, Tourism Towards 2030, released in October 2011, international tourism is expected to continue to grow in a sustained manner in the next two decades.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The benefits of urban forests are numerous - from improving the overall quality of life for citizens, through mitigating severe weather conditions such as strong winds, floods and hot weather, to reducing the effects of climate change by means of carbon sequestration and storage. Yet, despite all the potential benefits, there is still a profound lack of an integrated approach toward management of urban and peri-urban forests. FAO's aim is to remedy that by developing and introducing guidelines on urban forestry in July 2012, which will contain a selection of good practices as well as an overview of successful initiatives around the world.

Urban forestry is a relatively new discipline and therefore the rules for successful management and preservation have not yet been well defined.]]></description>

This should not come as a surprise, considering that more and more top CEOs and institutional investors are adopting a decision-making paradigm that requires social and environmental impacts to be carefully considered before money is lent or invested.

Yet despite all of this growth, research shows that this market is far smaller than it would be if investors were more fully informed about how competitive the returns could be. Luckily, this inefficiency has and could pay off for those investors who have stayed ahead of the investment curve.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sustainable timber investments are generating some good press lately as Wood for Good, a UK organisation working to increase demand for sustainable wood products, released at the 2011 Timber Expo last month the first ever Timber Industry Manifesto. Through this document, Wood for Good "aims to promote the suitability and sustainability of wood as a building material to the construction and logistics sectors and associated professionals such as architects and design engineers."

This new declaration clearly shows that the UK timber industry is committed to cultivating and utilising domestic timber resources in a manner that is safe for the environment, beneficial for the consumer and good for the economy.

But what does the Manifesto mean for people, who are new to the industry and are yet to put their money into timber investments?

First and foremost, the Manifesto sheds light on the economic scope of the industry in the UK. With its annual value of Â£18 billion and over 150,000 jobs, the timber industry is showing no signs of slowing down, even when other commodities are seeing volatility in prices and profits.]]></description>

Unlike the gold index or housing market or the stock, economic conditions do not affect such collectibles.

If it all went according to plan, over the next 30 years, Rimba Raya would have prevented 100 million tons of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere, gaining hundreds of millions of dollars from the sale of REDD carbon credits, benefiting both the poor local community and the government. And it seemed for a moment that Rimba Raya had all aspects aligned to succeed.]]></description>

If I had a dollar every time I heard such things from clients, prospective clients, or people at a gathering after they find out that I'm a financial adviser, I could retire to the French Riviera right now, only to be seen by my family and friends during the holidays and hunting season.

In the past 20 or so years, the general public has gained access to various information, tools, and calculators that in the past were only available to financial professionals. Go to the website of a major discount broker and punch in some basic information and all the work will be done for you without having to understand all of the nuts and bolts. Most people get so much educational material thrown at them by their 401k/403b plan, one might begin to wonder how we're able to replace all the trees that had to be cut down to print it all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The supply of REDD carbon credits should hopefully receive a boost in the coming years as the UN's REDD program recently announced that five more countries, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines and Paraguay, have signed their national program documents and are now full partners of the program. They join Bolivia, The Democratic Republic of Congo, Indonesia, Ecuador, Panama, Tanzania, Vietnam and Zambia. To date $55.4 US has been allocated to help develop national REDD strategies in partner countries.

Countries that have not yet become full partners but are nonetheless expected to in the future are Argentina, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Central African Republic, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Gabon, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Mexico, Mongolia, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Republic of Congo, Sri Lanka and Sudan.

REDD (United Nations Collaborative initiative on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) was internationally ratified in Copenhagen at the 2009 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.

It is estimated that 20%-25% of global carbon emissions are a result of logging, much of that illegal logging in the tropics.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you are like most people, your initial reaction to the question posed by the title to this white paper is "no." However, for many investors, the answer is "yes." With all of the investment options available today, many investors are intimidated, confused and frustrated by the investment process. Recent studies also support the suggestion that many investors are perfect targets for investment fraud or already are victims of investment fraud. For instance,



A recent study by Schwab Institutional found that 75% of investor portfolios were unsuitable for investors given their financial situation and goals;



A recent study by CEG Worldwide concluded that over 94% of those holding themselves out as wealth managers were more product salesman than wealth manager;



The 2010 IPT Elder Investor Fraud Survey reported that investment fraud is the number crime against the elderly, affecting an estimated 7.3 million older Americans, or one out of every five senior citizens.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since March 2009, The Bank of England base rate has stayed at its lowest of 0.5%. Prior to 2009, fixed rate bonds would have provided a guaranteed higher interest rate and many investors would have seen their fixed bonds paying out a good amount of interest despite falling rates. Now, over 30 months later, there is a constant debate as to whether base rates will begin to rise again.

At present there are two sides to the fixed rate bond argument which need to be taken into consideration.]]></description>

One thing some parents did when the child trust fund was in operation was to pay the child benefit they received on behalf of their child into their child trust fund. If you can afford to forego child benefit you could do this with the Junior ISA.]]></description>

Confused investors who are being forced to look for secure havens that will prove to offer good returns during recessions and financial commotion, are looking narrowly at the high returns yielded over the past few years from Fine Wine investment.

Few know that Fine Wine has outperformed almost every major financial index in the last two decades, and in some periods has even outperformed gold and crude oil investments. 5 year average performance of wines quoted on the Liv-ex 50 and Live-ex100 indices, the global marketplace, have showed growth of 270% and 192% respectively, effortlessly matching returns from other riskier investments.

Wine investment is not a new trend, however historically this lucrative division was traditionally the province of the knowledgeable few, but now an increasing number of investors are taking their first steps into this exciting market.

There is a wide choice of fine wine investment companies to assist people get into the market and help them throughout the process, whereby investors need not know anything about vintage wine.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wrapping your head around a new concept can be difficult enough. Throw into the equation the fact that this new concept you're keen to learn about practically has its own language and there are bound to be some out there who are taken a little aback.

Fear not though, as in an effort to easy you into the wonderful world of investing, we're going to provide you with a cheat sheet - a glossary to be more specific - that'll have you flinging financial jargon about faster than you can say 'Return on Investment.'

Now, we should note right from the beginning that this isn't the world's most comprehensive glossary. To cover all investment terminology, we'd need to establish a dedicated website! This is, however, a great starting block to allow you to wrap your head around some of the more tricky phrases and terms that are tossed about in investing circles.

If you like what you see and develop a taste for all things financial, feel free to seek out even more terms as there are literally thousands out there.

For now though, let's just stop with what we consider to be the 'Essential 10.'

In the current climate, investors are seeking alternatives to traditional investment assets, hoping to preserve capital, avoid the ravages of volatile equity markets, and generate investment returns that are not wholly dependent on the performance of the wider financial markets.

Physical assets are proving most popular with investors, items that retain a tangible value, rather than paper-based investments that can ultimately reduce in value to zero, despite the value of any underlying assets. Gold is the prime example. Whenever the stock market fall substantially, investors sell shares and buy gold.]]></description>

The Société Générale losses came on a massive $73 billion worth of positions, which Kerviel hid by hacking the bank's computers. After that devastating hit, SocGen instituted a whole new slew of watchdog rules, such as "be wary of traders who never use vacation time."

		<description><![CDATA[Investors looking to diversify their portfolios and insure their wealth against the ravages of volatility in traditional markets, will most likely have come across a range forestry investments, promising to generate superior inflation-adjusted and risk-adjusted returns for the long-term investor.

But how have timber investments performed? And how does the smaller investor participate in this interesting alternative investment asset class?

Firstly let's look at the past performance of forestry investments, as measured by one of the main timber investment indices, the NCREIF Timberland Index; according to this basic measure of investment returns in the sector, this asset class outperformed the S&#038;P500 by some 37 per cent in the 20 years between 1987 and 2007. When stocks delivered average annual returns of 11.5 per cent, forestry investments returned 15.8 per cent.

At the same time, returns from investing in timberland and woodlands have been proven to display a much lower volatility, an attractive characteristic for today's investor.

Previously, the majority of investment returns from forestry investments have been mopped up by larger, institutional investors such as pension funds, insurance companies and university endowments, who have collectively placed over $40 billion into timber investments in the past decade.

So on to the second question; how do smaller investors participate in this kind of alternative investment?

According to a study by Professor John Caulfield of the University of Georgia, returns from forestry investments are three-fold;
An increase in timber volume (biological growth of trees), which accounts for some 61 per cent of return on investment.
Land price appreciation, accounting for only 6 per cent of future returns.
Increase in timber prices per unit, delivering the final 33 per cent of investment returns for timber land owners.


So the best way to harness the performance of timber investments is to take ownership of trees, either directly, or through one of the array of forestry investment funds or other structures.

Timber REITs

One way for smaller investor to participate in timber investments is through a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT). These investment structures are like funds, in that investors can buy and sell shares in the trust on an exchange, the REIT acquires and manages timber investment properties, but unlike normal companies must pay out 90 per cent of their earnings to investors through dividends.

Some examples of Timber REITs are:

Plum Creek Timber is the largest private owner of timberland in the U.S.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are living throughout the greatest wealth transfer in the history of man kind that is taking place right now as I write this and if you are among the 95% of people in the world who are unprepared for this transfer then your wealth will be transferred away from you into the hands of those who are prepared, in short you may lose everything.

The good news is that if you are among the few who are prepared and positioned to take advantage of this wealth transfer then you will not only know how to profit from this but you will thrive as your portion of the worlds wealth transfers right into your hands. The only thing stopping you from going from one who is unprepared to one of the few who are prepared to welcome this wealth transfer is your decision to become that person.

Now more than ever before people need to know how to protect themselves and their families as we experience massive global change.

Everyone must know how to profit from this wealth transfer that has already begun and is taking place each day as the majority of the population continues on with their day-to-day routine with no idea of what is really happening around the world.

You see with economic chaos also brings incredible opportunity to create massive wealth and just like during the Great Depression where more millionaires were created than any other time in history this same opportunity is available right now as I write these words but this time the wealth transfer will be much larger and therefore the opportunity to become a millionaire and create massive wealth is much larger as well.

We are now in the process of the greatest wealth transfer in history.

One thing everyone must know right now is that there are 2 sets of rules when it comes to investing, protecting and creating wealth in this new economy that we are now in.

The first set of rules that says to save your money in dollars or some other fiat currency rather than real money such as precious metals and other assets that the middle class has been playing by all along that has led to financial loss and continued frustration by so many over the last few years as most are left wondering what they could do differently.

Then there is the second set of rules that the rich have been playing by where they save their money in real money, in precious metals and other assets rather than in fiat currency allowing them to experience record profits at the very same time.

In addition to that it is essential that everyone knows and understands that throughout history there has been a 7 step process that has repeated over and over again for thousands of years that allows anyone to understand how economic cycles work.

Here is a basic description of this 7 stage process.

First a country starts out with good money that is either gold or backed by gold.

Next as a country develops economically and socially it begins adding more social and work programs and along with that more economic burden.

Then an increase in its spending occurs to fund their massive expanding military.

After spending massive amounts of money on their military a country puts it to use by going to war.

To fund that war a nation starts replacing its peoples' money with a currency that can be created in unlimited quantities through some form of printing or diluting of that currency which causes an expansion in the currency supply. Where eventually a good currency becomes a fiat currency that is not backed by gold but instead only by the full faith and credit of that particular government that says what its currency is worth.

With this increase in currency supply also comes the next stage of this process which is inflation, which is an increase in price of major commodities such as food, energy and gas for example that is eventually felt by the population as faith of the currency begins to decrease.

To give you a better understanding of how this occurs take for example that since 2010 over just a 12 month period of time there has been an average increase in price of major commodities of 46% and as most are aware of the price of gas has gone through the roof and continues to climb.

So understanding inflation is quite simple, just think about that price of a car decades ago and look at the price now.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[1) Which single asset class are you most bullish (or bearish) about in the coming year? What ETF position would you choose to best capture that?

If I could own just one stock or ETF, then it would have to be Vanguard's Total World Stock Index ETF (VT). Perhaps I'm taking the question a little too literally or perhaps I just lack the necessary convictions in my (or anyone's) market predictions to choose anything more focused. VT is the most diversified ETF capturing the largest percentage of the world stock market capitalization.

I don't know why I would accept anything less, unless I could tell the future - which I can't do, no matter how hard I try! Therefore I'll go with the ETF that gives me the highest probability of achieving a fair return: VT.

2) How does this ETF fit into your overall investment approach?

Investor Solutions has some straightforward investing biases.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How can you tell the economy will get better? What about good buy opportunities in the market? Do they always exist?

There are many answers to these questions. Sometimes events cloud the overall picture. Sometimes there may not be good investments but getting prepared to make an investment is just as important.

If the markets are down and nothing looks good, but a major company announces they are buying another company or pouring money into a new project, that company is saying, "we think the future is great." Does it mean you should buy that company or an ETF or fund holding that company, no, not necessarily.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The immigrant investor program requires that a foreign national applying for a United States visa, invest in a new business, or expand an existing business in the United States, facilitating, in the process, job creation and increased domestic capital investment. However, the job creation aspect of the program tends to discourage many investors. As a measure to surmount this reluctance in potential foreign investors, the regional center program was created.

The regional centers can be defined as any project, either private or public, that benefits the American economy and creates employment in a particular region of the United States.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As fears of a debt crisis in the Eurozone converge with poor economic data from the US, investors turn away from volatile traditional investment assets such as equities and bonds, choosing instead to investigate a range of alternative investments that provide shelter for the value of capital, and are less affected by market 'noise'.

Here are three alternative investment strategies that are proving popular with investors heading towards 2012.


Coins and Stamps


Numismatic investment (investing in coins) and philatelic Investment (investing in stamps) is one area that is receiving an increased attention. As with many alternative investments, the value of rare coins and stamps is driven by supply and demand. The rarer an item, the greater the value, although with coin investing the value of the metal is also a considered factor in the value of the coin, such as is the case with gold coins for example.

Investing in stamps was popular in the 1970s, but the bubble burst and prices took many years to recover.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The sage advice of financial professionals and the business press is summed up in one word-diversify. Diversification to investors and advisors is to have a portfolio with a variety of holdings in traditional financial instruments such as stocks, bonds, variable annuities, and/or real estate. Since these instruments are tied to the financial markets and to the domestic and global economy, investors have seen a decline in these instruments since 2007.

With the uncertainty in the market, other investors have chosen to hold their cash in investments considered safe-CDs, money market accounts, or U.S.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The United States, in order to attract potential foreign nationals to invest in its economy, started the EB-5 Visa program which allows for a direct route to permanent residency in the US if one is willing to invest the requisite amount of funds in a new commercial enterprise, or in an existing business or in a government designated Regional Center project.

Investing into a new business or expanding an existing business requires an investment of $1 million, being significantly involved in the business and also the added responsibility of creating ten new employments. The Regional Center investment demands just $500,000 as the requisite amount, without your day to day presence in the project, and with a scope of counting the indirect employments created due to the existence of the project, towards fulfilling the mandatory requirement of creating the 10 new jobs. Add to that a wide choice of regions in the US where these projects are designated and a plethora of projects in various domains to choose from, an investment in a Regional Center may be the most feasible and convenient route to a Green Card in the US.

One great feature about investing in the Regional Centers is the option of putting your funds in environmentally viable projects.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As an addendum to the EB-5 Visa program, the regional center immigrant investor program was created to allow foreign nationals to invest the required funds in a government designated enterprise. The minimum amount of investment required for this type of the EB-5 Visa program is $500,000. Complying with the general conditions of investment for the EB-5 Visa, these investments must have a predetermined positive economic impact on the US economy.

If you are thinking of investing in one of these projects, it would be of interest to you to know the criteria behind the designation of a Regional Center by the US Citizenship and immigration services (USCIS).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the current climate it is important to hold a diversified portfolio of investments, and not place all of ones eggs into the same metaphorical basket.

As inflation remains high the value of cash diminishes, and so investors seek to acquire assets where the value tracks or beats inflation.

As interest rates are low, investors also require income from the portfolio to replace the lost 'risk-free' income from cash deposits.

As markets are volatile, the savvy investor hopes to invest in assets that continue to grow in value steadily, and do not fall in value at the slightest whiff of bad political or economic news.

Here are three types of alternative investments that do not depend on the performance of traditional assets like stocks and shares, bonds, cash or property, and display the characteristics mentioned above.

Farmland Investments

The price of agricultural land is directly related to earnings derived from the land itself. Agricultural real estate assets have been shown in studies of historical data to grow in value at 2% above the rate of inflation.

Arable land also generates annual income from the cultivation and sale of crops, or from lease payments from tenant farmers, replacing lost income when dividends from other investments fall or interest rates are low.

Farmland is in exceptionally high demand as the population grows and demands more food, but supplies of suitable land are actually shrinking due to urbanisation, land degradation and climate change. Returns form farmland investments then are driven by population growth and rising incomes/increased consumption, rather than financial markets, and as these are long-term fundamental trends, farmland generates very little volatility and is not affected by short term peaks and troughs.

Smaller investors find it difficult to access direct farmland investments due to the amount of capital required and the expertise in selecting / managing properties.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many offset projects are located in developing economies where, more often than not, the costs associated with the successful operation of a carbon offset project are considerably less than the potential costs if the offset were based in a developed country. Offset projects are installations with commercial purposes, and as any other standard business operations, they have an immediate impact on the indigenous people in those areas. In fact, offset projects might feel even more pressured to cater to the needs of local communities than any other businesses out there, because when your underlying business model is based on caring for the environment, it makes even more sense to care for those living in it.

Third-party regulatory bodies that evaluate and certify voluntary emission reductions (VERs) produced by carbon offsets have come to recognize the importance of ethical and integrative treatment of communities in the developing countries that host such projects.]]></description>
