En Capital Intereconomía, la Tertulia Capital analiza los grandes asuntos económicos, empresariales y tecnológicos del momento junto a Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting; Gonzalo Garnica, consultor empresarial; y Carlos Arenas, doctor en Economía. Entre los temas destacados figura la elección de España por parte del gigante chino AIC como puerta de entrada a Europa, una decisión que refuerza el atractivo del mercado español para la inversión internacional en un contexto geopolítico cada vez más complejo. También se analiza la movilización de los equipos de banca privada y banca de inversión de Banco Santander ante la esperada salida a bolsa de SpaceX, una de las operaciones corporativas más relevantes de los últimos años. La mesa aborda además la advertencia de la CEOE sobre el impacto que la incertidumbre política puede tener sobre la imagen de España y la preocupación creciente de la industria por la escasez de suministros y el aumento de costes energéticos y logísticos. Otro de los focos de atención es el incremento de la factura fiscal de gas y electricidad tras la retirada de medidas de apoyo, con un impacto significativo sobre hogares y empresas. En la Entrevista Capital, Jesús Moradillo, director general de Estrategia de IA en LLYC, analiza la decisión de Anthropic de facilitar acceso a su tecnología Mythos a la agencia europea de ciberseguridad, así como las implicaciones de la solicitud formal de salida a bolsa presentada por la compañía. La conversación profundiza en el creciente papel de la inteligencia artificial en la seguridad digital, la regulación tecnológica europea y la carrera global por liderar el desarrollo de modelos avanzados de IA. La jornada se completa con el análisis de preapertura de los mercados europeos junto a Pablo García, director de Divacons-Alphavalue.

This month, the Investment Trust Show focuses in on what makes trusts so unique: from gearing to boards. Hannah Williford and Dan Coatsworth discuss the pros and cons before seeing how they measure up against their sister funds through the numbers. Nick Britton from the Association of Investment Companies joins to explain where the differences emerge. AJ Bell's Tom Sieber also steps in to interview Utilico Emerging Markets chair Mark Bridgeman to understand what role a board is really playing. Then, two funds investing in private equity, Seraphim Space Investment Trust and ICG, discuss where opportunity lies off the market, and how Seraphim has grown its share price by over 300% in a year. 00:00 Introduction: What makes investment trusts unique 04:30 What does a trust board actually do?

Eighty percent of manufacturing leaders say they are behind their peers on AI. The math says that is impossible. So why does almost every CEO walk into a room believing the rest of the industry has already figured this out?Bryce Carpenter, COO at Conexus Indiana, sits on top of the data that explains it. Conexus runs the Advanced Industries Council, the state's primary convening body for the 9,700 manufacturing and logistics companies that produce 37 percent of Indiana's GDP. Bryce founded the AIC in 2019 and has watched 120-plus member companies move through the AI experimentation phase in real time.In this conversation with Harrison Painter, Bryce walks through what he is actually seeing. Why Indiana's $29 billion in 2024 manufacturing investment paired with a 1 percent drop in employment is a retirement story, not an AI displacement story. Why the average tenure inside Indiana manufacturing collapsed from 30 years to 3. How a 52-person Northeast Indiana shop grew to 106 after a single equipment investment. Why the 9,700 companies running their own boutique soft-skill development programs is the most expensive inefficiency in the state. And why he gives Indiana an A-minus on AI progress when most operators inside the state would say B at best.If you run a 100-to-5,000-person company and you are trying to figure out where your team actually is on AI, start with the free 7 Levels of AI Proficiency assessment at assess.launchready.ai.

Taiwan is advancing its vision to become a leading hub for innovation-driven capital formation in Asia, with the Taiwan Stock Exchange spearheading the development of the Taiwan Innovation Board (tib). Designed to support high-growth and forward-looking enterprises, tib has undergone a series of significant reforms in 2025 aimed at enhancing market accessibility, flexibility, and investor participation. Key measures—including the removal of qualified investor restrictions, the introduction of day trading, relaxed investment limits for Securities Investment Trust Funds, shortened share custody periods for profitable companies, and eased extended underwriting sponsorship requirements—underscore Taiwan's commitment to aligning its capital market with international practices. These enhancements not only strengthen tib's market appeal but also lay a solid foundation for Taiwan's broader ambition of achieving as Asia Innovation Capital.Aligned with this vision, the Taiwan Stock Exchange, in collaboration with Z/Yen Group, the compiler of the Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI), is pleased to host this online forum. Bringing together representatives from academia, the startup ecosystem, and tib-listed companies, this webinar will offer a multifaceted perspective on how tib serves as a cornerstone of Taiwan's Asia Innovation Capital (AIC) strategy. By integrating policy direction with real-world insights, the session aims to demonstrate how capital markets can empower startups, accelerate growth trajectories, and enhance the overall momentum of Taiwan's industrial development.We cordially invite professionals and stakeholders interested in capital markets and startup innovation to join us in exploring Taiwan's journey toward becoming the AIC—a premier destination for high-potential enterprises and a preferred market for innovation-led growth. Together, let us discover how Taiwan is shaping a vibrant, future-ready ecosystem that connects innovation with capital on a global scale.

It's called the Pathway to Progress. That's the name of a strategic plan that Nicolle Cestero has helped shape and shepherd at American International College, first as interim president, then since shedding that interim tag last summer — a plan that responds to a shifting higher-ed landscape by reimagining significant aspects of AIC's academic programs, faculty roles, degree options, and more. For the next episode of BusinessTalk, Nicolle sits down with BusinessWest Editor Joe Bednar to talk about all that and many other aspects of a job she never imagined she'd have when she joined the AIC team 15 years ago — from the importance of the on-campus student experience to how she sees higher education continuing to evolve. It's a must-listen, so tune into BusinessTalk, a podcast presented by BusinessWest over both audio and video platforms, and sponsored by Greenfield Cooperative Bank.

This week on the show, Chris and Ethan discuss the story behind Jerry Cantrell's second solo album “Degradation Trip.” In this first part of a two part look into this project, Chris and Ethan discuss the writing and recording of this record, in addition to where it all fits in to timeline of Cantrell and AIC.

Alignment is often underestimated as a single “yes.” Transformation just doesn't work that way.In this week's episode of the Only Constant, Awais Farooq discusses with Nellie Wartoft how real alignment comes from designing for difference: segmenting people by adoption behavior, tailoring communication by role & channel, and using real adoption signals to adjust in real time. They also dig into why top-down cascades miss the people most impacted, how to uncover “what's in it for me” at scale, and why premortems & postmortems are the difference between learning and repeating the same mistakes with new packaging.Awais Farooq is the Chief Claims Officer at Venbrook and a senior insurance executive, transformation strategist, and keynote speaker with nearly two decades of experience across State Farm, Farmers, Chubb, Berkshire Hathaway GUARD, and Crawford & Company.Recognized as a national voice on insurance innovation and claims transformation, Awais has spoken at leading industry conferences and executive leadership forums. His thought leadership has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and PropertyCasualty360. He holds the CPCU, AIC, and AIC-M designations from The Institutes. His upcoming book, The Future Isn't Fully Automated: Why Humans Still Matter in a High-Tech World, examines how AI and automation are reshaping insurance while reinforcing the enduring importance of human judgment, empathy, and leadership.Connect with:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nellie Wartoft⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CEO of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tigerhall⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chair of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Executive Council for Leading Change (ECLC)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠nellie@tigerhall.com

Pea bruchid beetle was detected for the first time in peas harvested in the UK in 2025. The AIC, BSPB, NFU and PGRO are working together to identify mitigations and minimise the risk of spread from the two sites in Landbeach, Cambridgeshire and Stubton, Lincolnshire.Having been confirmed post-harvest on both sites, the crops were removed and fumigated. However, due to the risk of mature beetles overwintering in the local area we have identified the need to establish a voluntary restriction zone within which we ask that growers abstain from planting pea crops in 2026.In the intermediary, establishment of catch crops and ongoing monitoring will be undertaken at the sites for the 2026 and 2027 growing seasons. The two confirmed findings have raised concern within the sector, presenting challenges not only to crop integrity and yield, but also to the continued confidence of our domestic and international trading partners. If unmanaged, these issues could have detrimental consequences for market access, supply chain stability, and the reputation of the UK pulse industry.To access the full PGRO guidance, please visit Pea Bruchid (Bruchus pisorum) | PGRO

Adjusters often handle a large volume of claims, making their role challenging. Homeowners need to understand their responsibilities in the claims process. Mitigation is crucial to prevent further damage during a claim. Communication between homeowners and adjusters is key to a smooth process. Homeowners should provide all necessary documentation to their adjuster. The claims process involves several steps, including investigation and resolution. Adjusters are there to facilitate the claims process, not to deny claims. Understanding the insurance policy is essential for homeowners. Both parties have responsibilities to ensure a successful claims outcome. Clarity is essential for homeowners during the claims process. Homeowners must understand their responsibilities and insurance policies. Effective communication with adjusters can expedite claims. Mitigation of damages is crucial to avoid further losses. Homeowners should be proactive in providing information to adjusters. Understanding estimates is vital for homeowners to avoid confusion. Adjusters handle numerous claims and may not remember individual cases. Building a good relationship with adjusters can lead to better outcomes. Homeowners should document everything related to their claims. Trusting the process and being patient can lead to smoother claims resolution.   Sound bites "We can't lowball you." "It's a process."

欢迎收听雪球出品的财经有深度，雪球，国内领先的集投资交流交易一体的综合财富管理平台，聪明的投资者都在这里。今天分享的内容叫政策直击债市，未来会有什么影响？来自ice_招行谷子地的雪球。财政部、税务总局公告，自2025年8月8日起，对在该日期之后（含当日）新发行的国债、地方政府债券、金融债券的利息收入，恢复征收增值税。对在该日期之前已发行的国债、地方政府债券、金融债券(包含在2025年8月8日之后续发行的部分）的利息收入，继续免征增值税直至债券到期。这一政策对股市和银行有何影响？下面我就来谈一谈我个人的理解：第一，老债价格一次性跳涨，新债实际收益率下降。此次恢复征收国债地方债和金融债的增值税采用了新老划断的方式，即从2025年8月8日之后新发行的上述债券所取得的利息收入需要缴纳增值税。在此日期之前已经发行的债券继续免征增值税。这也就意味着如果新老债券的票面利率完全相同，机构持有老债的实际利息收入将会高于持有新债的利息收入。所以毫无疑问，老债作为稀缺资源将会出现供小于求，价格上涨情况。对于银行等金融机构来讲，未来新债券的利息收入需要缴纳增值税。而且由于银行缺乏增值税进项抵消，增值税会影响实际的利息收入。假设，新债券的利率是2%，按照扣除6%的增值税后其实际收益率相当于1.88%。第二，由于老债会受到追捧，可以预见债券牛市将会进入最后的冲刺阶段。新老划断期后，由于新债的实际利率会低于票面利率。机构的资产配置策略可能会发生边际改变。后期随着老债逐渐到期退出市场，新债占比越来越高，整体债券市场的吸引力会缓慢下降。债券市场的牛市将会进入慢撒气阶段。第三，理财收益将进一步下降。我国理财市场目前以固收类理财为主。固收类理财或多或少都会配置政府债和金融债作为压舱石。由于目前我国的理财已经基本全部实现净值化，所以债券市场的波动会对理财的收益产生直接影响。存量理财的短期收益会受益于税收新老划断的政策。但是，8月8日之后理财的收益将会缓慢下行。我相信银行理财产品会以新老划断为标志展开一波理财收益高的宣传。建议投资者不要被短期年化收益率的假象所迷惑。长期看，理财产品的收益将会持续缓慢下行。第四个，政策出台的目的是为了将盘踞在债券市场上的资金挤出去。这些资金转向权益市场、实体投资、甚至是转去消费。前面说过了，新老划断政策，会使得债券市场和理财收益缓步下行。那么对于持有此类债券的机构和个人投资者就意味着投资回报率下降。这些资金要么转向收益率更高的权益类资产，要么去做投资，或者干脆取出来花掉。今年，监管机构已经多次出手压低无风险投资类的收益率，从降低存款利息到恢复征收政府债和金融债的增值税。目的都是为了把钱从银行存款，理财这些固收类资产中赶出来，让资金去投资，去消费。第五，对银行的影响。这一政策对银行的影响分为短期和长期。短期债券市场冲高，有利于银行三季报交易类金融资产的公允价值变动增益，有利于银行通过卖出高收益老债兑现当期盈利。从长期看，债券牛市终结，银行会调整其资产配置的策略。降低交易类金融资产的占比，降低金融投资类资产的占比，增加信贷投放，特别是结合上周个人消费贷和经营贷贴息的政策，银行会增加消费贷和经营贷的投放。对于银行业绩短期向好，长期看信贷投放多，拥有AIC直投牌照的银行基本面会表现更佳。收入对于债券市场依赖较大的银行面临更大的挑战。第六，对于股市，这一政策有何影响？恢复债券增值税征收的政策对于股市的影响主要在资金面和基本面两个方面。降低债券投资的实际回报率可以促使资金转向权益类投资、实业投资和消费。对于保险机构和个人投资者，红利股的潜在价值会提升，有更多的资金会流入股市刺激股市走高。转入实业投资和消费的资金会刺激经济进一步复苏，经济复苏对于整个股市的基本面都是利好。第七，政策出台的时机。政府债和金融债免征增值税的政策是从2016年开始执行的，到今年正好10年。根据某大型金融媒体的统计，过去一年国债、地方政府债券、金融债券累计发行规模达到32.6万亿元。恢复政金债增值税征收的政策，虽然对于刺激经济和股市有积极的作用。但是，同时也会抬高这类融资渠道未来的融资成本。选在现在的时点出台政策，从另一个侧面暗示地方化债和金融企业融资需求告一段落，各方已经拿到了足够多的廉价资金。国家在未来一段时间可能会通过通胀手段稀释现有债务，中期市场利率抬升的可能性增加。最后，未来还有什么刺激经济的政策？我理解常规手段已经用了不少了，但还有一些常规手段没有使用，比如存款利息税。对于存款利息税，我国在1999年-2008年期间为了应对经济通缩曾经执行过针对存款利息征收20%个人所得税的规定。这一政策被视为应对经济通缩和流动性陷阱的最终常规手段。这就是我对近期债券市场政策对于各个方面的理解，感谢您的观看与倾听。

Around 1 in 2 people living in the UK will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime according to Cancer Research UK. That stark statistic is a reminder how the disease can impact families up and down the country, but it's not just the health of people diagnosed that can forever be changed. The finances of those who survive the disease can also be devastating too. We'll hear from a man recovering from a cancer diagnosis about how it impacted his life, and speak to a charity that is calling for better financial support for cancer survivors.As the Bank of England cuts interest rates to 4.25%, we'll discuss what the best deals are at the moment. Data shows that while some lenders are offering deals at less than 4%, you'd need a big deposit and have to pay a fee, so what is out there and who can get it?And investment platforms should be required to pass on voting rights to shareholders. That's the call from the trade body, the Association of Investment Companies. If you buy a share in a company you have the right to vote on corporate decisions. At the moment, some investment platforms pass on the right to vote, others require you to opt-in, some don't pass on the rights at all and some even charge to do it. The AIC wants that to change so that all platforms are required to pass on the rights, which would require a change in the law. In response, the Personal Investment Management and Financial Advice Association says a wholesale change to regulation to force this issue could result in significant costs to firms and an overwhelming level of paperwork for customers.

Jak umělá inteligence ovlivní trh práce a jak se mohou jednotlivci i společnosti na tyto změny adaptovat? Jaké dovednosti budou v éře AI klíčové a jak by se měly změnit vzdělávací systémy? A jak zajistit, aby vývoj umělé inteligence probíhal v souladu s etickými normami a lidskými hodnotami? Hostem jubilejního 200. dílu podcastu DEEP TALKS byl profesor Michal Pěchouček, přední český odborník na umělou inteligenci. Působí jako ředitel Centra umělé inteligence (AIC) na Fakultě elektrotechnické ČVUT. Publikoval více než 400 impaktovaných publikací, které přispěly k výzkumu umělé inteligence, a jako hostující profesor působil na mnoha zahraničních univerzitách. Podílel se také na založení několika technologických startupů, například společnosti Cognitive Security, kterou v roce 2013 koupila firma Cisco, a v letech 2019 až 2024 zastával pozici technického ředitele ve společnosti Gen (dříve Avast).

So a lot is going on for this episode.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, and many peri- and postmenopausal women have questions. Like why is my fasting blood glucose and/or AIC going up? What role do hormones, diet, exercise, and lifestyle play? What does it mean (and not mean) for my current and future health? So, this week we sat down with midlife health and nutrition specialist Val Schonberg to explore “prediabetes” (which, spoiler alert, is not recognized as a diagnostic category by the World Health Organization) and how we should think about it as active midlife women.Val Schonberg RDN, CSSD, is a Registered and Licensed Dietitian with a master's degree in nutrition science from the University of Minnesota. She is Board Certified as a Specialist in Sports Dietetics, a Certified Menopause Practitioner with The Menopause Society, and a Fellow of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Val owns a private practice in Atlanta, Georgia where she specializes in midlife health and menopause, recreational and professional sports nutrition, all types of eating disorders and helping individuals break free from dieting and disordered eating. She is the consulting dietitian for Emory Sports Medicine, Orthopedics, Atlanta Ballet, and the Atlanta Dream Women's NBA team.
