Standard Chartered’s London headquarters. The bank is setting up a securities business in China.PETER NICHOLLS/REUTERS Chinese regulators have been busy recently in approving foreign financial firms to set up, or take control of, businesses in China. The latest example is U.K. bank Standard Chartered. StanChart on Thursday won permission to set up a wholly-owned securities business in China, which will be able to offer brokerage, underwriting and other services. It is following in the footsteps of other banks, including U.S. institutions such as Goldman Sachs . Other recent approvals include: Schroders last week received approval to establish a wholly foreign-owned public fund-management company. In December, Fidelity International received final approval to start selling mutual funds in China, joining peers like BlackRock and Neuberger Berman that can now directly manage money for Chinese individual investors. In November, insurer Chubb was cleared to take control of its Chinese joint venture. China scrapped ownership restrictions for foreign financial institutions in 2020, part of a trade deal signed by then-President Donald Trump and Liu He, China’s vice premier. Before then, foreign investment banks, asset managers and card networks were barred from operating on their own in China.

Facing a wave of withdrawals from skittish investors, a crypto-friendly bank is staying solvent thanks to an unusual multibillion-dollar loan — a move Jim Cramer says should knock you off your chair. “This is extraordinary,” the Mad Money host and crypto skeptic tweeted last week. “A bailout loan from the Federal Home Loan Bank for a crypto bank to stem the run. I wish people knew how dangerous this is all getting. NOT business as usual.” Don’t miss ‘Hold onto your money’: Jeff Bezos says you might want to rethink buying a ‘new automobile, refrigerator, or whatever’ — here are 3 better recession-proof buys UBS says 61% of millionaire collectors allocate up to 30% of their overall portfolio to this exclusive asset class Rich young Americans have lost confidence in the stock market — and are betting on these assets instead.

Davos, Switzerland CNN — The promenade at the World Economic Forum, dusted in a blanket of fresh snow, is cluttered with signs and pavilions from companies and governments courting attention or deals. There’s the tech giants, the major consulting groups, representatives from the Middle East. But this year, dominating the main street in Davos are emissaries from India , who have taken over at least eight storefronts with appeals to the elite gathering’s political and business class. “Every 10 steps you will have either us or a state government or a private entity,” said Deepak Bagla, the CEO of national investment promotion agency Invest India. One investor, Bagla joked, had described the thoroughfare as “Little India.” India has shown up in force for good reason. In 2023, as global recession fears persist, the country is expected to log the best performance of any major economy. The World Bank is estimating growth of 6.6%, compared to just 0.5% for the United States and 4.3% for China. If it can maintain its momentum, India will overtake Germany as the world’s fourth largest economy in 2026, knock Japan from the number three spot in 2032 and become only the third country with […]

The #vanlife movement exploded in popularity in the last few year due to the rise of millions ‘working from home’ during the pandemic. ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) – Noke Van Co . is one of Roanoke’s newest businesses hoping to bring a little extra adventure to the region. They say they’re the first to bring an outfitted camper van-building business to the Commonwealth. Keri and Justin vanBlaricom know what it’s like to live on the go. Their family of 5 once lived in an RV for 15 months. Camper vans have been around for decades. In the last few years, the #vanlife movement exploded in popularity fueled by the rise of millions working from home during the pandemic. It inspired the vanBlaricom’s to get creative. “We lived in 400 square feet in an RV– that feels huge compared to the space and we were still able to renovate and find something new and different and how to better use that space,” said Keri vanBlaricom. The vanBlaricom’s have now settled down in Roanoke and considered it home. But they’ve always had a dream to help others also experience adventure and the Blue Ridge Mountains. So, they teamed up with their longtime […]

If you’re a typical business owner, there’s a strong probability that you’ll be selling your business in the not-too-distant future. If you’re a younger entrepreneur looking to own your own business, you’ll soon have plenty of chances to buy one. And if you’re a CPA or financial advisor, you’re looking at a big opportunity to provide advice and service. Here’s why. You’ve heard of the "Silver Tsunami?" That’s a common phrase for the upcoming wave of older Americans who will soon dominate our demographics. And it’s not a joke. According to the Census Bureau , baby boomers — those born between 1946 and 1964 — will all be over the age of 65 within the next seven years. At that time, these older Americans will make up 21% of the population, up from about 16% today. By 2060, nearly one in four Americans ( 74 million ) will be 65 years and older, the number of those 85 or older will triple, and the country will add half a million centenarians.

Web3 entrepreneur, investor, CBDC inventor, and founder of Panther , Bitt, BaseTwo, Fluent and Elemental. Collaborated with UN, MIT and IMF. getty Regulating privacy isn’t a brand-new idea. Nor is it exclusive to the Information Age. The roots of the right to privacy come from ancient Roman law and Greek philosophy . The distinction between the public realm (the polis) and the private realm (the citizen) was born in the same place as democracy: ancient Greece. It then influenced the Roman legal concept of “actio iniuriarum,” which established the inviolability of one’s residence and punished attacks on dignity and reputation—cornerstones of individuality. As modern privacy regulations unavoidably expand into the digital realm, the decisions being made right now will shape all of our futures. In this article, I’ll dive into how businesses can play an active role in shaping these norms and standards while attentively adapting to changes to remain competitive. I urge you not to idly observe as society settles on frameworks that will tremendously impact what the virtual world will look like. Preferences In Privacy Let us start by addressing an often-overlooked truth: Consumers prefer privacy. A free society dictates the kind of laws it wants according […]
