Banks increasingly demanding

Although mortgage rates have been stagnant since June, after rising nearly 1% in one year, individuals always go into debt on attractive terms. It should thus be between 4 and 4.30% on average for a loan of twenty years (excluding insurance) to finance the purchase of a principal residence. And surely a little more to acquire a rental or vacation home.The deal could change and banks subject to significant pressures should increase credit rates. For now, they have tightened the conditions for granting.

More than ever, it is essential to shop around banks or go through a broker to get the best rate. "The spreads are widening between financial institutions. Those who have already achieved their annual targets to increase their loan rates, "says Hervé Hatt.Those who change their domicile bank will accept their wages in the lending institution. "It's part of the negotiation," says Philippe Taboret. And also helps lower the cost of financing. Like the loan insurance.

Everything is planned for the next five years. Even the price performance has been limited, rising 0.9% yesterday afternoon in the U.S., despite the death of the Wizard of Apple. Steve Jobs had prepared his succession to the millimeter. Six weeks ago, he had entrusted the keys of the company to Tim Cook, his loyal second, which made the group very profitable. He even left a road map for future innovations. "I think the list of products is stopped for three to five years ahead," said Pierre Peladeau, vice president of consulting firm Booz & Co.

The iPhone is growing at a second screen and payment functions, to become a real game console and an electronic purse. Most importantly, Apple will continue in his way, his real trademark, oversimplify the use of machines which become, therefore, luxury goods, high-margin.The speech recognition system "Siri", presented this week for the iPhone 4S by Tim Cook, should get on Macintosh computers and iPods the most advanced. Recognition of movements and even that of the user, as is the case for the Microsoft Xbox 360, should be to integrate other functions in future products. Shelves, computers and phones all have a camera that could be used to identify its owner.

"The strategy of" multiple monitors "will continue", provides an employee cash advance no faxing. After the computer and the telephone, television and its contents will be the next land to conquer. All television programs around the world could be available on future Apple-branded TVs, thanks to icloud, the system of cloud computing.As was the case for music, applications, newspapers and books, television programs are distributed by Apple. The company would then play a role of reseller and could strengthen in the business of advertising.

Demanding

The road map is drawn, the organization and working methods are arrested, men of valor are in place, including "designer" Jonathan Ive, and the director of marketing Phil Schiller, who "knows so intimately the competitive products, "said Carolina Milanesi of Gartner. In addition, "Tim Cook is as demanding as Steve," provide the employees of Apple. It has the same attention to detail and perfection "that are hallmarks of the group." But without Apple embodied the soul of Steve Jobs, the group may he continue to impose its laws to the content owners? It is not safe.In addition, the future is not written competitors, especially Google's married to Motorola. These competing strategies could encourage Apple to change the line to follow. The future would become uncertain.

Must catch up behind his desk on time to smoke outside? The issue is being debated in France, where some companies and communities have adopted this measure. In general, they do not boast too much. Reportedly, the primary health insurance fund (CPAM) of Paris has adopted such a rule in several of its centers. Employees who smoke must go débadger when they leave the building and when they return to rebadge their office.

This measure applies from Monday all the officials of the Walloon region for which time is counted cigarette break in working time. "The rule is that when one leaves or enters the building that we register the clock," said Monday the spokesman of the regional government of Wallonia, Hugo Poliart.

Will be tomorrow worry someone will take a few minutes for a coffee break, or goes to the bathroom? ".

80 minutes a day outside his office

For now, no action or no generalization are planned in France. "I'm not shocked by what I encourage debate, says Professor Betrand Dautzenberg, president of the French Office for Smoking Prevention (OFT). This must be done on a company without marginalizing smokers: those who buy his paper leaves or sunbathe must also débadger. "

The OFT conducted a study in 2008 which emphasizes that smoking over 20 cigarettes a day can spend 80 minutes daily outside his office for his cigarette break time.

This study also emphasizes that the time spent on cigarettes has increased since the ban on smoking on the premises forcing employees to take the elevator and out to their business. "This type of measure denormalizes smoking, said Professor Bertrand Dautzenberg. Often, the attitude of the head is different vis-à-vis the cigarette break from his team if he is a smoker or not. This system of measurement of working time ends the convenience of the hierarchy. "

His first steel pipes have started to go out there four months. But the new Brazilian plant of the French group Vallourec (Japanese partner Sumitomo is 44%) had Thursday's first critical success: President Rousseff came to inaugurate Jeceaba, a hundred kilometers from Belo Horizonte , the capital of rich state of Minas Gerais.

"This is a very special event for me," confessed Rousseff, born in Belo Horizonte and whose father worked for Mannesmann, the ancestor of Vallourec in Brazil since the French group bought in 2000 the activities of the German inventor of the technology of seamless tube in the nineteenth century. Dilma Rousseff's visit is a nod to the French-Japanese investment of 2 billion euros, thanks to which, in his view, the added value derived from the iron ore Minas Gerais is one of the leading producers a reality at last."Brazil does not want to be considered as a raw material supplier to the world," said Philippe Crouzet, the CEO of Vallourec. The French group has made Brazil a strategic basis. It has the distinction of being integrated with its own raw materials as it has its own iron ore mine and a huge plantation of eucalyptus trees whose rapid growth provides power to the steel coal wood.

Vallourec already produces a quarter of his hits in Brazil and there will soon employ 7,700 people. Plant Jeceaba increase its total production capacity by 10%. The site – 250 acres and about 2 km in length of the blast furnace to finishing shops – is a measure of the target market: VSB will be dedicated to the export of products for the exploration and production of hydrocarbons payday loan lenders.However, investment by oil and gas companies have never been higher. And their needs are ever more technical, as it must look deeper black gold, or in extreme conditions. The new plant should therefore take place in the South-South trade, serving clients in West Africa and the Middle East.

Petroleum potential

Its commissioning will enable the existing plant, VMB, focusing on the Brazilian domestic market: infrastructure, especially as we approach the World Cup and the Olympics, mechanical, automobile Vallourec … but mostly gets in the wheel Petrobras, client history. "Our investment decision in March 2007, spoke before Petrobras does not reveal the end of 2007, the discovery of its giant fields présalifères. At the time, this discovery was often met with skepticism.Today, Petrobras is thought able to produce 5 to 6 million barrels per day by 2020, "said Philippe Crouzet. The potential 50 billion barrels of black gold hidden away Petrobras offshore Brazil, within 7 to 8 km of water, rock, and especially salt. An obvious market for pipes and joints upscale Vallourec, tested by the extraordinary conditions of pressure and temperature.

"Petrobras is planning to invest 224 billion dollars in the coming years, more than any staff" has stressed Rousseff. The rise of Brazil as a major oil producer is an opportunity for Vallourec. As is the U.S. energy revolution: the group is building a U.S. factory dedicated to market exploitation of shale gas and go into production in late 2012.

In May 2010, McDonald's France was a sensation with a TV spot in which a teenager going on a phone call to her boyfriend before having lunch with his father, who explains that, as he did at that age, it could be a 'real card with the babes. " Advertising has been around the world. In the original French with subtitles in English, it even triggered a controversy in the United States. The conservative Fox News channel has even made a field day. Sacrilege: great American brand in the gay friendly side!

In this spot, designed by BETC Euro RSCG, is not known if the son ends up coming out to her.But the statement by McDonald's, which has declined in all genres, is very clear that you're straight or gay, black or white, young or old, rich or poor, we do not judge, "just like you are. "

Before, we criticized the pub not to be representative of "visible minorities", not to be sufficiently "black-blanc-beur". Today, the debate has shifted to the "non-visible minorities" and still gets carried away on the issues of communalism, which are still taboo in France.

10% of "non-white"

The proportion of ads depicting characters perceived as "non-white" compared to the total advertising (TV, press and poster) distributed and reviewed by the Regulatory Authority's professional advertising (ARPP) reached 7% in 2008 against 3% in 2005, and this share has increased further since then, around 10%."Racial minorities are now represented quite rightly, said Ingrid Zerbib, image editor for the magazine Strategies, who viewed all the ads that come out in France. The next step is in progress. Homosexuals, the disabled and the sick are increasingly visible. "

McDonald's campaign has been emulated. Krys posted Orangina or gays in their pubs. Personalities with disabilities such as Down syndrome Pascal Duquenne for the virtual mobile operator Simyo, or the blind Gilbert Montagne, for heating specialist camera, turned in spots. Diseases are also commonplace."You can be sick without stigma," said Anne Ramon, communications director of the National Cancer Institute (INCA), the last campaign "I am a person, not a cancer," conducted by the agency La Chose , seeks to change social perceptions of one of the most widespread diseases in France.

In another, more commonplace, but also an affirmation of reality: that of the Community consumption, with the campaign launched last year by the brand halal Isla Delight "Proudly halal." On the occasion of Ramadan, for the first time in France, the brand was as diverse a reference food, free of any cliché. "This campaign is a marker, decrypts the marketing consultant Jean-Jacques Urvoy.The brand was treated as the French leader Charal. "On a halal market estimated at over 5 billion euros – and therefore highly competitive – the whole trick of the ad was to challenge the EU labeling, while displaying a rooster and a Charolais beef! A war of images in a way.

Marine Le Pen responded first by issuing a press release immediately after the press conference of Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel. For the president of the National Front, the Franco-German summit had one objective: "to organize the sharing of the burden of debt" in deciding "how much further tens of billions of euros in France and Germany will contribute to bail out countries hit by the euro. " "It's irresponsible," she said, denouncing the "ideation" Sarkozy's "rush to the euro area as federalism." The president of FN requires a "top of the eurozone finally useful for people" to "take note of the end of the euro".

Jean-Luc Mélenchon, chairman of the Left Party, also expressed his disapproval."Instead of concrete measures to protect the people of the assault Markets, Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel persist without imagination, to comply with the requirements of finance," said the former senator.

On the contrary, Jean-Francois Cope, secretary general of the UMP, was "glad" that Sarkozy and Merkel have "reiterated the importance of adopting a" golden rule "on the whole budget Member States of the euro area ".

I-TV, Martine Aubry denounced the "smoking out of communication" by Nicolas Sarkozy on the "golden rule" that France and Germany proposed to be entered in the constitutions of 17 countries in the euro area. It is "a vague rule that does not solve anything," said the Socialist candidate in the primary by confirming that the PS did not vote when the Congress was convened."The president has made reforms that are financed and saddled deficits," said Aubry.

Unusually, the side of the Rue de Solferino issued a statement co-signed by Harlem Désir, near Martine Aubry and Michel Sapin, close to François Hollande. Together, they denounced "a summit of the powerless." "Unable to propose an ambitious joint response against speculation and recession, the Conservatives do not know French and German co-ordinate the restraint they impose on the peoples of Europe," say the two socialist, criticizing the ads "waves" on Tax on financial transactions no fax payday loans.

Asked on Europe 1 on Wednesday morning, François Hollande regretted his part that France has given up on the issue of eurobonds in the meeting between Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel on Tuesday.The member for Corrèze, Nicolas Sarkozy has given on this point against Angela Merkel, Germany is opposed to this economic instrument. "Nicolas Sarkozy has lost his hat" on this issue, he said. "We have a head, but he (Nicolas Sarkozy) has no arms."

Former Minister of Economy and Finance Laurent Fabius is "disappointed" by the end of the Franco-German summit. "The president has set on the Eurobonds. This is a major fault to be a serious consequence," the socialist RTL. "If the goal was to show that there is a pilot in the plane is missing," said he. "The French are not fools. Nicolas Sarkozy deficit record holder but he wants to impose the golden rule after 2012. It's like saying that the arsonist wanted to be fire chief." "What is lacking also in yesterday's meeting is a support for growth.We must not only manage budgets seriously, "he said.

As the president of the Radical Party, Jean-Louis Borloo, he "welcomes the Franco-German joint decision to set up as soon as possible" this tax. He saw a "critical point" in recalling that he had sent Monday to Angela Merkel an open letter calling for its introduction.

If Marielle de Sarnez, Vice President of the Democratic Movement, said that the proposals of France and Germany will "in the right direction," it remains "cautious as accumulated, over time, statements and announcements on these major issues. " She adds that "it will not solve the problems of France who value their continued economic weakness and concern. It's good on this front where the battles will engage key. "
