no footnotes date October 2011 Refimprove date October 2011 A Local Government Funding Agency LFGA is financial institution that serves as a vehicle for local and regional authorities such as municipalities, county councils and regions to access capital markets for the purpose of jointly procuring credit for public investment projects. The local and or regional authorities of a country own the LGFA, sometimes with a minor ownership by the state. It works as a co operative agency where the participating authorities come together in order to ensure low interests rates on loans, based on the creditworthiness of the participating members. This co operation can also help the local authorities to achieve a higher credit rating than if they act independently. The agency normally does not seek to make profits and any surplus is usually reinvested in the activities. LGFAs exist and operate within the borders of the respective countries where they are found.

The Minimum Funding Requirement MFR was a part of United Kingdom legislation in the Pensions Act 1995 , and was introduced on 6 April 1997. The Pensions Act 2004 abolishes the MFR replaces it with new statutory funding objective this came into force on 30 December 2005 for all pension schemes with a valuation date after September 22, 2005. The aim of the Minimum Funding Requirement was to set a minimum amount of assets that a defined benefit pension scheme should hold in order to fund its promised benefits. If a scheme did not hold sufficient assets, the pension scheme was required to achieve the minimum level within a given time scale. For a scheme with less than 90 of the assets required, the scheme had to pay the shortfall below 90 within three years. Where the scheme was between 90 and 100 , the period was ten years. Although legislation set out the broad requirements of the Minimum Funding Requirement, the details of the methods and assumptions to use were specified in Guidance Note 27, issued by the Institute of Actuaries and the Faculty of Actuaries . After the introduction of the Minimum Funding Requirement, there were several modifications to the assumptions to cope with perceived weaknesses in the original basis. However, the level of assets required by the MFR never proved sufficient to provide the benefits promised by the scheme which the MFR was supposed to fund. The Pensions Act 2004 abolished the MFR and introduced a new scheme funding objective hoped to adapt more flexibly to individual schemes circumstances but at the same time protecting members benefits.

More footnotes date February 2010 Orphan date February 2009 Guaranteed Consumer Funding is a type of Credit finance credit similar to layaway , which allows consumers to purchase items on a payment plan regardless of their credit history . This process requires signing a wiktionary contract contract in which the consumer promises to make all of the payments in full by their due date. In return they will receive guaranteed credit and are allowed to use the product as they pay it off. With this type of loan the consumer does not receive their purchased items right away, as they would using traditional credit purchasing methods. Instead they are expected to make a wiktionary predetermined predetermined number of timely payments as a show of good faith. If those requirements are met, the consumer may collect their purchased items and continue to make the payments until the contract has been fulfilled and the item has been paid off. However, the item will cost as much as four times the actual value of the item. There have been many complaints from people that did not get the item, even after it was paid for in full. Due to the nature of the wiktionary purchase purchase and the terms of extended credit , generally these services do not have a cancellation or refund policy . However this information must be part of the signed contract in order to be enforced. Along with secured loans credit and layaway programs, guaranteed consumer funding is a good way to help re build bad credit and establish Credit finance credit for those without.
