A Yankton-based bank is demanding that ReliaMax Holding Co. turn over office furniture and other equipment that was collateral in exchange for millions of dollars in loans.

First Dakota National Bank could be out as much as $6.1 million that it had in a loan and a line of credit with Sioux Falls-based ReliaMax, according to a lawsuit filed in Minnehaha County.

In June, the South Dakota Division of Insurance petitioned a judge to liquidate ReliaMax Surety Co. The company provided insurance to banks and other lenders who make private student loans. ReliaMax Holding Co. owned ReliaMax Surety.

HOUSEHOLDS have fallen behind on essential bills such as council tax and utilities by an estimated £18.9 billion, according to Citizens Advice.

The charity made the calculation as it said it received a cry for help with bailiff issues once every three minutes last year typically. It is calling for stronger regulation of bailiffs and said it has seen a 24% rise in related problems since 2014.

CSG has more than tripled its losses after making the decision to exit its enterprise business earlier this year forced the company to write down its assets by $116 million.

The company racked up a statutory net loss after tax of $150.1 million for the 2018 financial year ending 30 June, compared to a $43.7 million loss in 2017.

EBITDA also took a massive hit, dropping from a $32.6 million loss last year to a $151 million loss in 2018, while revenue dipped eight percent to $225.7 million.

CSG blamed the mounting losses on the $116 million non-cash impairment, as well as the $39.3 million charge for provisions relating to the enterprise solutions business. Meanwhile crumbling revenue was pinned on lower pri…

Greece reached an important milestone yesterday: After nearly nine years of crisis, brutal austerity and political turmoil, it exited what was supposed to be the last of three bailout programmes.

If only it weren’t doing so with Europe’s largest debt burden.

Europe’s leaders are understandably eager to be done with an embarrassing episode. The debt crisis that began in 2010 highlighted not only Greece’s financial mismanagement, but also how Germany, France and other core countries allowed their banks to enable it. Bailing out Greece was an act of political sleight of hand: It indirectly saved the banks, while putting the onus on the Greeks.

Miraculously, Greece survived. The federal budget is in surplus, and the economy is g…

The late Mark Boscariol’s three restaurants were closed abruptly because the company operating them was insolvent, says his family.

In a release sent to CBC News Monday, the family of the entrepreneur says that decision was made while administering Boscariol’s estate.

“As common in small businesses, the founder is the glue that keeps the business together through good and tough times,” the statement reads, “Mark was that glue.”

People in the restaurant industry are echoing those statements, commending Boscariol for his ability to guide three separate locations with new ideas.

“There’s some great people out there doing some really good things on a smaller scale,” said Chris Ryan, who has worked in the food scene for years and often c…

The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) on Monday granted an interim stay on the liquidation of Jyoti Structures Ltd.

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) had earlier approved bankruptcy proceedings against the company, in response to a plea by lenders, led by State Bank of India. However, after several attempts to find a buyer through the insolvency proceedings failed, the NCLT agreed to put the company up for liquidation.

NCLATs decision came after a group of investors, led by Sharad Sanghi and 800 employees of the corporate debtor, appealed against the liquidation. Sanghi, who sold his company Netmagic to Japanese telecom major NTT Communication five years ago, had bid for Jyoti Structures along with a clutch of other…

Major leisure infrastructure projects in Hong Kong, including the West Kowloon Cultural District and Ocean Parks new hotel and waterpark – are experiencing significant overruns as a result of construction delays and contractural issues.

On Friday the WKCDA said it had terminated the HK$5.9 billion (US$750 million) contract for the M+ visual culture museum, the centrepiece of the arts precinct, with Hsin Chong Construction due to the companys insolvency.
