The consolidation of debt, which is making money borrowed from a lender to pay off outstanding debts, has the advantage that it starts to have a single debtor to whom will manage the monthly payments and money back if conveniently choose the cancellation system.
Steps to consider when consolidating debts:
* From every account you want to consolidate, you should add them all up to know the total amount you owe. * Make a list of interest rates with each of your accounts, and set the average of this rate. * Start calling your creditors and ask them the cancellation of the cash balances as of the date it intends to consolidate debts. * The entire amount of their balances of cancellation should be the initial amount to start the consolidation. * When looking for a lender, the rate you need to look for should be lower than average in the previous calculation. * Always ask for the terms of the loan and plan accordingly. * Once you have consolidated your debts control your finance and avoid getting in the same problem. The previous considerations applies to individuals living in countries that accept what is called the "Toronto terms", this name comes from the agreement established in the World Economic Summit in Toronto in June1988. They were applied to the countries designated by the World Bank as "IDA-only" borrowers who had a very heavy debt, low per capital income and balance of payments problems. These countries should have strong structural adjustment programs supported by the INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND.
The fundamental principles of the Toronto terms are basically two: 1.- To define the terms of the debts of the development assistance. 2.- For the debt that is not development assistance, create the introduction of the conditions for payment.
The ODA type of debt have two distinctive characteristics one is 25 years for the maturity and 14 years of extension, other characteristic is that the initial rate will be higher than the default interest rate. Debts different than the Development Assistance ones, the creditors can choose from a menu of 3 payment terms.
Option A: one third of consolidated debt will be canceled and returned with a remaining maturity of 14 years, including 8-year extension, default interest will be marked by the market.
The other option: twenty five years repayment and fourteen years extension and the market will define the interest rate in case of default.
Option "C": The same terms like the option "A", but the default interest rates will be 3.5% points below the market rate set (according with the market and depending on the reductions)
The Paris club agreed to add (In December 1991) the concessions for the countries with lower incomes plus the terms defined in the Toronto meeting (basically 2 options to reduce the debt and to re negotiate the concessions). The option represents a 50% concession of forgiveness in present value terms in debt service payments, lowering the debt during the consolidation period. Additionally, it was agreed to establish a timetable for consideration of a potential debt reduction. Creditors have indicated willingness to consider restructuring the remaining time when the debt is canceled on a date not later than 3 or 4 years.
