IMF warns of ‘negative and substantial’ impact of Brexit
– canadianbusiness.com
WASHINGTON – A U.K. vote to leave the European Union would seriously hurt the British economy and possibly lead to a recession next year, the International Monetary Fund warned Friday.
An IMF report estimated that were Britain to leave the EU, its economy could contract by as much as 0.8 per cent in 2017. In 2019, economic output could be up to 5.5 per cent lower to what it would be if the country remains in the 28-member EU.
While the Washington-based IMF cautioned that the decision was for the British voters to make, IMF experts believe that “the net economic effects of leaving the EU would likely be negative and substantial.”
An exit by Britain, referred to as “Brexit,” would likely lead to reduced trade and financial flows with other EU members, lower investment and consumer confidence and higher financial market volatility. All this could prompt major financial firms to relocate from London.
“Such effects could over time erode London’s status as Europe’s preeminent financial centre,” the IMF said…

Feds won’t file fraud suit against Countrywide’s Mozilo
– canadianbusiness.com
LOS ANGELES, Calif. – Federal prosecutors won’t file a fraud lawsuit against former Countrywide Financial boss Angelo Mozilo over the sale of billions of dollars’ worth of subprime loans.
Mozilo’s lawyer, David Siegel, says Friday he’s gratified that the Department of Justice has decided not to bring a civil case against his client after a two-year investigation.
That effectively ends the chance of Mozilo facing a federal case. Prosecutors declined to file criminal charges against the former Countrywide chief executive in 2011.
Mozilo co-founded Countrywide. The loan giant helped fuel the housing bubble by giving mortgages to people who were unqualified. The subsequent crash led to a massive bailout of financial institutions by U.S. taxpayers.
