    Finance and capital markets on Khan Academy: Interest is the basis of modern capital markets. Depending on whether you are lending or borrowing, it can be viewed as a return on an asset (lending) or the cost of capital (borrowing). This tutorial gives an introduction to this fundamental concept, including what it means to compound. It also gives a rule of thumb that might make it easy to do some rough interest calculations in your head.
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps.

      How did the guy make money though because with a swap your basically just insuring your loan so if it defaults you just don’t lose your money. I think maybe he took out a default swap on other companies loan. So company A loans B a billion and berry’s hedge fund take out a swap on company A’s loan even though he has nothing to do with it. Be like your friend taking out insurance on your house haha

  • @insanecow31989
    @insanecow31989 12 років тому +1

    With the financial crisis in hindsight, its easy to criticize the CDS model.
    To me it seems like this model of 'pooled risk' is very similar to any other insurance company, or similar to a bank which loans out its money. Corporations such as AIG that distribute risk, as far I can tell, seem to serve the useful purpose of increasing market liquidity, giving corporations access to the capital they may need to grow.
    From Sal's explanation, the problem that I see with a corporation like AIG . . .

    You are right, there's no need for a connection to Company B. Regarding your second question, the hedge fund is not insuring itself against anything, they are just betting that Company B will default and they will get 10 B just by paying 200 bp/year.

    Great video. My only criticism of it is the assumption you make that the government will do a better job at evaluating those companies when the government is the institution that bailed them out. In a free market, those companies would all be out of business, so other companies wouldn't make the same mistakes in the future. Although, that would also mean a lot of people would have lost a lot of money in the process.

And you also seem to confuse that what banks "should" do is not the same as what they do in practice.

      Because they DON"T have the money to pay their obligations they should be REQUIRED to.
      When Sun Fun asked if they are now required to you laughed and chided him, which was by the way, extremely rude.

    @Hudson4351 That is correct. Insurance rates are based on actuarial tables that predict the probability of various events happening ie. car crash, age of death, etc. CDS are different though because it is as though 1000 people could get insurance for one car. Even if the probability of this car crashing and the insurance having to be paid out is the same as all other cars, in the event that this car actually does crash (the company defaults) then the insurance company is screwed.

    allowing you to "bet" money that someone else has to default on his debts, creates a very dubious (immoral? destructive?) incentive for you to do everything in your "power" to cause that default. A lot of powerful people (or funds) have quite enough leverage to accomplish this.
    This doesn't sound healthy for an economy and society.
