    Do you reckon there were many 'ordinary' depositors in Anglo?

    The €600 million bond paid earlier this week was anglo's.

    Under the restructuring, 120,000 Anglo deposit customers had accounts holding 8.6 billion euro moved to Allied Irish Banks. About 3.6 billion euro of deposits held by 160,000 Irish Nationwide customers were moved to Irish Life and Permanent.


    That would make the average deposit in Anglo about €72,000. It would be fair to assume I think that a good number of the 120,000 depositors would have had under the average.

    Which is where they essentially became 'unsecured' and should've been defaulted on, not a further burden to us tax payers (seeing as how they weren't our debts)

    How do they become unsecured? If you default, you still have to pony up with the assets they were secured on, which means IBRC is still out of pocket for €600 million (or possibly more, since they're secured on 60 per cent loan to value for commercial loans).

    The average from the INBS book would have been much less. 160,000 accounts totalling €3.6bn - that averages €22,500.

    I wonder how many of our politicians and developers had major deposits in anglo?
    Is it possible to find out?

    Budget 2013 (i.e. Dec 2012) predictions:

    Taxation measures (Eur1,250m):
    - Household Property Tax (average Eur350 per house) = yield 500m
    - Excise / Duties (petrol +10c pl; cigs +50c +15c a pint) = yield 250m
    - Income Tax (reduce PAYE allowance by 250; pers allow / bands) = yield 500m

    Expenditure measures (Eur2,300m):
    - Health = Yield 700m
    - Social Welfare = Yield 900m (possibly incl USC charge?)
    - Education = Yield 300m
    - Bits and pieces from wherever = Yield 400m

    And the fight will be over:
    - The Eur350 property tax.

    Did you read my quote?
    Anglo Irish Bank is not getting another cent of our money and any bank coming to us looking for more money is going to have to show how they’re going to impose losses on their junior bondholders, on their senior bondholders and their other creditors before they come looking to us for anymore money. Not another cent.”

    The auld fags, booze and diesel/petrol one is good.

    More duty on fags = more money for the smugglers.

    More duty on fuel = bigger bills for the LA's to dispose of the sludge left on the side of the roads by diesel launderers.

    More duty on booze = more people staying at home with a cheap bottle or two from lidl, forcing pubs to put people on the dole and making smaller VAT returns to the exchequer.

    Clever ok.

    So we can tax our way out of a recession. NOT!

    There were very few if any small depositors with Anglo. They had no high street branches outside of Dublin as far as I can ascertain.
    When the Govt decided to save Anglo they knew who they were saving. They probably played golf together and socialized.

    Something just not quite right about this post, just can put my finger on it...........


    Ah, I know!

    Where is the PS/CS salary bill?
    Misc unvouched Expenses?
    TD's/Ministerial pensions (multiple in some cases)
    TD's/Ministers salaries?

    etc etc etc etc etc?

    It prob just slipped your mind though Bishop. Right?

    Yeah. Maybe those figures for deposit accounts are all made up.

    Didn't slip my mind at all. I just don't think they'll be addressed in the coming budget. Are you suggesting that if you were predicting the budget that you would be factoring those in?

    If you want me to set out what my alternative budget would be, I will!

    I just think if we're comparing income v outcome it would make sense to mention those figures too?

    It was known as the developers bank and I'm sure a few of your favourite type of people, politicians, had a few quid in there.

    I'd love to see a list of the depositors in that corrupt bank, it might explain why we were bounced into the guarantee on that faithful night in 2008.

    I don't think you have grasped my post at all.

    I simply set out my predictions for the forthcoming budget. I'm not offering any view on the rights or wrongs of it.

    The only other comment that I am making is that I guess the biggest hassle (notwithstanding the relatively small magnitude in the overall context) will stem from the property tax charge.

    I would have told the truth.

    The countries bankrupt, we're on our knees, we cant afford to pay this back. Not another red cent!

    OK. And then the bondholders claim the assets that loan is secured on, which are worth at least €600 million. So either way, you're down €600 million.

    Don't ordinary customers come from Dublin too?

    They always had very competitive rates for depositors and advertised them widely. The average deposit account when the book was taken over by AIB had under €75k - hardly nobs.

    Ok, sorry I possibly took you up wrongly.

    I thought you were saying how we were whinging about a property tax (in the grand scale of things) when our income was so small v what the outgoing would be.

    Sorry.

    I still do not understand where these assets would come from though?
    Had Anglo, as a privately owned bank been allowed to fail, the bondholders and other creditors should have been left to fight amongst themselves over what scraps were left (assets etc)

    This would have cost the state and tax payers how much in that scenario?

    (/i'm genuinely asking, not being smart vlad)
