Reliant Resources recently refinanced $6.2 billion in debt to stabilize its operations during a difficult time for the energy industry.

However, Reliant's CFO states the goal is to improve its credit rating by paying down debt and eventually refinancing on an unsecured basis rather than relying on bank loans. While money is available from distressed debt investors, banks continuing to roll over loans is preventing capital from circulating in the market.

I continue to state that franchising should be taking off in an economic downturn like this and continue to explain some of the possible causes with difficult franchising in these times.
The document discusses the changing role of banks due to financial innovations and deregulation. It makes two key points:
1) Statement A describes banks' original role of accepting deposits and providing loans, but Statement B argues this has changed with new financial products and varying regulations between countries.
2) While banks still facilitate deposits and loans, their activities have expanded through off-balance sheet transactions and fees to compensate for lost business to new financial innovations. However, their core economic function of enabling growth through lending remains intact.
The document discusses common questions bank directors have about executive compensation. It recommends that banks develop more rigorous methodologies to link compensation to performance. Performance metrics should cascade down from top executives and include both financial and non-financial measures. Banks should also have independent compensation committees to oversee compensation governance. There is an industry trend toward better integrating compensation with performance management systems.

The survey found that more than a third of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) do not have enough reserves to weather a renewed economic downturn. Cash reserves are the strongest determinant of an SME's ability to obtain financing. Lenders now require solid collateral for loans, and SME business plans must convince lenders that funds will be used for capacity building rather than extending credit to customers. While some SMEs have no choice but to rely on unsuitable sources like personal credit cards, owners should try to avoid running for the exits and consider alternatives like easier supplier credit terms.

- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said it is unclear if the US economy will experience a slow recovery like those typically seen after financial crises.
- Recoveries after financial crises tend to be more sluggish than normal recessions, due to headwinds like deleveraging and problems in the banking system. However, past policy responses may not have been aggressive enough.
- Bernanke hopes current aggressive monetary and fiscal policies will lead to a stronger recovery for the US economy.
