The heads of the U.S. Congress and the Bush administration reached an experimental business loans of financial markets at risk that could cost taxpayers in the hundreds of billions of U.S. dollars. The House could vote on it later today and the Senate on the House of Representatives of the Tuesday.US speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that the agreement just after midnight Saturday and said it still has to be written. The Secretary of Treasury Henry Paulson announced that conclusion dell'affare but added: "I think we 're there." The program will spend up to $ US700 billion, most of the mortgages on deeply devalued out of market 'S of the collapse and other bad loans held by banks tottering, and other investors. The aim is to prevent the accreditation drying up and cause the merger of the United States, which is still on the cards. The media reports have indicated that the request $ US700 one billion could conclude in on the cut near as much as half, with the rest conforms to the approval of Congress at a later date. The loans offered, first past fast Capitol Hill as proposed by Paulson's three-page, now ballooned into a document of more than 100 pages, CNN reported. A Democratic senator said that $ US250 one billion would be available immediately and another $ US100 one billion could be used once requested by the President on purchases of debt. The Congress could exclude the amount of $ US350 remaining one billion only passing a resolution to be obstructed by spesoe. Several other provisions in the bill proposal include more oversight and a sense so that the government take back the losses from holdings on mortgage assets reported losing money. Europe in Belgium 's Fortis looks to become the first major bank in continental Europe from falling victim to the crunch accreditation, as the global chaos continues with Britain' s & Bradford; supplier of mortgage Bingley and regional U.S. bank, Wachovia, which also staggers on board. The Belgian central bank and regulator? s? the country are paving the way for huge loans from the Group of insurance and banking, which has a budget well above $ A1.1 trillion and a market value finally Friday just above $ A25 billion. The Belgian regulator probably is considering the creation of a? bank 'of defective? รข; 'for goods similar to the proposed scheme questionable in America to the end of the dell'affare. There were reports this morning that the French receive, BNP, might mount a bid for Fortis.Any uncertainty surrounding the future of Fortis are likely to affect Royal Bank of Scotland, its partner with Spain's Santander in the consortium that bought l ' Last year ABN Amro for 102 billion euro while just crunch the accreditation was breaking. They refused to withdraw the offer and were allowed to continue by the United Kingdom, Belgium and the central banks and regulators Spanish. The assets of banking Dutch Fortis bought as part dell'affare has yet to be transferred from the special features used to do, which is legally a subsidiary of RBS, which has raised over $ A24 million and has sold more than $ A10 billion in assets in four months. Fortis, which has 2500 branches across Europe, replaced last week its principal executive who has worried the markets. The Belgian government, regulators and the Dutch central bank are all involved in the talks and a deal is thought to ads over the next day to prevent a crisis of confidence that could shine the public panic and an operation on deposits through parts of Europe; something that is a replay in Great Britain where the car insurer Fortis is deprived of? Three of the s? of Britain's largest insurer and the fourth largest travel. There 's talk of the government in Luxemborg could take a stake in Fortis to support it. In & Great Britain Bradford, Bingley look of the nationalization and then be liquidated. The Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority (APRA as in Australia) and the Government seem to nationalize accosentiree The B & B and then the liquid, much as regulators in the United States closed the morning and seized another of Washington 's last Friday and then sold the loans, deposits and branches to JPMorgan Chase.Santander, the Spanish bank, is in negotiations to buy the B & B, but it is insisting on the circumstances. It would be the second British cash to be nationalized this year that Great Britain was forced to take the rock in the Nordic public ownership in February.The FSA is trying to find a single white-knight to take the direction of B & I loan of? s? BA in their entirety, but the bank? s? of great Britain have refused to get involved. The B & B shares have fallen to a record decline of the British government Friday.The have forced the merger between the country 'largest provider of mortgage s, HBOS and Lloyds TSB.Britain' main bank of five of s — HSBC, Royal Bank of Scotland, Barclays, Lloyds TSB and HBOS – and Santander already owns about 30% of B & B between them after they have made a step in to help save an edition of rights that flopped in June. RBS, HBOS, Lloyds and Barclays (who bought the remains of Lehman Bros. In the U.S.) is in no position to extend an aid budget, leaving HSBC and Santander, which owns the Abbey and Alliance and the Leicester.In U.S., Wachovia may struggle to find a 'friend' loans up to the bill is law, or there 's some movement by taking it under control. Some commentators of the United States have estimated the potential suitor, one of whom is Citigroup (which went down by spolveratore of the potential white knight) could use the trick JPMorgan ploy used by Washington Mutual: wait to see if regulators seized the bank, then to buy the best goods and leave the kind of government out of the rest of the disorder. In addition to Citi, Fargo voucher (which could be a target for Goldman Sachs) and Banco Santander is in talks to buy Wachovia.They is part of that group who left missed a chance to buy Washington Mutual that JPMorgan has bought $ US1.9 one billion . The media reports say that potential buyers wait to see what 's in the bill, but was demanding of government subsidy. That 's something that the government waste in the case of Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch parts. Wachovia have fallen 27% in New York on Friday.The the buyer can get help from regulators, who said the United States benefited from the seizure and sale of WaMu as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. didn 't have to use the related insurance programs on deposit $ US45 one billion fund.JPMorgan to record WaMu 'folder s loan of about $ US31 billion ($ A37.2 billion) – a figure that could change if the government goes through with its program bail-out and take advantage of it.JPMorgan JPMorgan said that there will be another $ US1.5 billion merger costs. And more failures further raise the month of September to peak in the list of miserable months, incomparable in October, when the big arrests of 1929 and the draft of 1987 have happened. The financial landscape has been torn up by the failure of Lehman Brothers Investment Bank, the government 'change of management s American International Group who was once the world' largest insurer of s, based on market value; l 'union of the shotgun of Merrill Lynch Bank of America, the conversion of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to finance companies regulated by the bank's Investment Banking and the collapse of the nation' largest savings s, Washington Mutual, which now ties as the largest bank failure in U.S. history. Goldman has seen Warren Buffett snap up an equity $ US5 billion to make his group the largest shareholder and Mitsubishi of Japan has seized a 20% stake in Morgan Stanley after both abandoned the model of investment banking transformed by in antiquated in banks.IMPORTANT: VENTILATED reports about financial markets and investment products in the widest sense possible.
