Discover Latest #Credit Default Swap News, Articles and Videos with Contenting
A credit default swap (CDS) is a financial derivative contract between two parties. The buyer of the CDS makes a series of payments to the seller, and in exchange, the seller agrees to pay the buyer in the event of a loan default. Credit default swaps are typically used to protect against the risk of a borrower defaulting on their loan. By buying a CDS, the buyer is essentially taking out an insurance policy on the borrower's loan. There are many different types of CDS contracts, and they can be used to hedge against a variety of risks. This news and analysis section covers the latest news, trends and developments in the credit default swap market.

Qualified Charitable Distributions and Required Minimum Distributions: Today’s Slott Report Mailbag - Ed Slott and Company, LLC
Question: If an IRA owner is over age 70 ½, can they do a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) even if their spouse makes a deductible traditional IRA contribution? Mark Answer: Hi Mark, There are some complicated rules that count deductible IRA contributions made after age 70 ½ against QCDs. However, these rules apply on a per person basis. What a spouse does is not considered. Your spouse can go ahead and make a deductible traditional IRA contribution. It will not affect your QCD. Question: In December of 2023 I requested a transfer of my IRA funds to a new custodian. The old custodian sent a check as a direct transfer to the new custodian, but as of 12/31 the check was “in the mail.” For RMD calculations, do I just forget these “in-the-mail dollars” (as they will be accounted for next year), or do I add the value of the outstanding check to the 12/31/2023 balance to calculate my 2024 RMD from my IRA with the new custodian? Thanks, Ryan Answer: Hi Ryan, The RMD rules do require you to adjust the 12-31 prior-year balance used to calculate RMDs for any outstanding rollovers or transfers. In your case, you would need to add the amount of the outstanding transfer into your 12-31-23 balance when calculating your 2024 RMD.
