Guest: Larry Baer, CEO of the San Francisco GiantsIn 1992, Larry Baer was part of the ownership group that bought the San Francisco Giants and successfully prevented the team from being moved to Tampa, Florida. Back then, they had a big problem to solve: An old, uncomfortable ballpark that voters wanted to see replaced, but didn't want to pay for.20 years after the construction and financial success of Candlestick Park's replacement, Oracle Park, Baer — now the CEO of the Giants — embarked on an even bigger project, developing an entire neighborhood near Oracle called Mission Rock. “We're in the baseball business, but really, we're in the media, entertainment, sports, real estate business,” he says.

Tom welcomes back Dr. Nomi Prins, financial expert and best-selling author, about the impact of the U.S. election on markets and her outlook for the economy. Dr. Prins highlights the disconnect between the thriving financial markets and the stagnant real economy, with high debt levels and inflation surpassing wage growth. The election brought attention to voters' economic concerns, although neither candidate presented substantial plans for addressing debt and deficit issues. Trump's promises on immigration and inflation reassured some, but his lack of a comprehensive economic strategy remains a concern for Dr. Prins. Tom and Dr. Prins explore the economic implications of tariffs, focusing on Trump's plan to impose tariffs on imports. The reduction in supply from tariffs causes price increases and inflation, potentially harming the domestic economy unless the country can offset these costs by participating in multiple parts of the supply chain. The nuclear energy industry is positioned for growth following the election results, with companies like Microsoft and Amazon considering nuclear power deals. The state of energy development in the United States is also explored in the context of Trump's plans to deregulate. Dr. Prins discusses the movement of the US dollar after the election results and the potential for de-dollarization. The US dollar continues to be the world's top reserve currency, but longer-term trends suggest de-dollarization through trade agreements in non-dollar currencies, alternative trading currencies, and infrastructure development. Central banks' interest in gold as a hedge against risks, coupled with increasing demand from consumers in countries like China and India, positions gold to play an essential role in this framework.

Trump's promises on immigration and inflation influenced markets, but lack of economic strategy remains a concern. Tariffs, nuclear energy growth, and de-dollarization are major economic shifts following the U.S. election.

Japan's Top Business Interviews Podcast By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Laurent Depus, President of Natixis Japan Securities, the Japanese branch of French bank corporation Natixis, has been working in Japan for over 30 years. Originally from Belgium, he aimed to become an English and Spanish interpreter but changed his career course when he joined Chase Manhattan Bank in Luxemburg as a trader. After experiencing various management positions in the financial sector, Mr. Depus joined Natixis in 2014. Mr. Depus observes successful organizations need to establish three main pillars. First is to have a profitable business model. Second is to have regulated governance. Third is to have a strong company culture. During his time at SMBC Trust Bank, he built these three pillars for the company from the ground up. He especially notes the challenge he had of creating a strong company culture in the complex Japanese workplace. Although very hierarchical, Mr. Depus observes that the Japanese decision-making process is more participatory than the west. He explains how vital it is to establish trust within one's team to ensure everyone is moving towards the same direction. This is a challenge especially in a non-confrontational culture like Japan where people may seemingly agree with the boss but silently resist. Additionally, Japanese staff may be wary of foreign managers as they are seen as short-term workers who will move onto another position in 2-3 years. In navigating such challenges and winning trust, Mr. Depus emphasizes the importance of being genuine, honest and transparent. He says, “I think once people have realized that you are honest and genuine, the ice will crack. Trust will be generated. And once you have trust, mistakes can be made. You can make mistakes and your staff can make mistakes. But there's no hard feelings because there is trust, like in any…family.” Mr. Depus adds that when there is trust, more people come forward with new ideas, creating a momentum for creative innovation. Mr. Depus advises newcomers of Japan to be prepared, detail-oriented, and honest in order to gain trust. He explains, “in the Benelux where I'm from, I would only get a transaction when I had the best price. [But in Japan], once the relationship is created, it's usually more than just a simple, pure business, [but a] product-oriented relationship.”
For centuries, the vastness of the Chinese market tempted foreign companies in search of customers. But in the 1970s, when the United States and China ended two decades of Cold War isolation, China's trade relations veered in a very different direction. In Made in China: When US-China Interests Converged to Transform Global Trade (Harvard University Press, 2024) Dr. Elizabeth Ingleson shows how the interests of US business and the Chinese state aligned to reframe the China market: the old dream of plentiful customers gave way to a new vision of low-cost workers by the hundreds of millions. In the process, the world's largest communist state became an indispensable component of global capitalism. Drawing on Chinese- and English-language sources, including previously unexplored corporate papers, Ingleson traces this transformation to the actions of Chinese policymakers, US diplomats, maverick entrepreneurs, Chinese American traders, and executives from major US corporations including Boeing, Westinghouse, J. C. Penney, and Chase Manhattan Bank. Long before Walmart and Apple came to China, businesspeople such as Veronica Yhap, Han Fanyu, Suzanne Reynolds, and David Rockefeller instigated a trade revolution with lasting consequences. And while China's economic reorganisation was essential to these connections, Ingleson also highlights an underappreciated but crucial element of the convergence: the US corporate push for deindustrialization and its embrace by politicians. Reexamining two of the most significant transformations of the 1970s—US-China rapprochement and deindustrialization in the United States—Made in China takes bilateral trade back to its faltering, uncertain beginnings, identifying the tectonic shifts in diplomacy, labor, business, and politics in both countries that laid the foundations of today's globalized economy. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Alan Belcher, courtesy of Hunt Gallery Alan Belcher's concept-based work is decidedly multi-layered and object oriented. He has been recognized in the past as an originator of a tactile fusion of photography and object-making. A transparency of vision and simplicity of fabrication with a concentrated regard for materials remain hallmarks of his serial productions. A sense of humour and a reverence for both Pop and Poveric sensibilities, as well as a hands-on approach; invade much of his work.

Tune in for more Chris Voss CEO, Founder, Instructor, and Keynote Speaker Chris used his many years of experience in international crises and high-stakes negotiations to develop a unique program that applies globally proven techniques to the business world. Prior to 2008, Chris was the lead international kidnapping negotiator for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), as well as the FBI's hostage negotiation representative for the National Security Council's Hostage Working Group. During his career, he also represented the U.S. government as an expert in kidnapping at two international conferences sponsored by the G8. Before becoming the FBI's lead international kidnapping negotiator, Christopher served as the lead Crisis Negotiator for the New York City division of the FBI. Chris was a member of the New York City Joint Terrorist Task Force for 14 years. He was the case agent on TERRSTOP (Omar Abdel-Rahman/"The Blind Sheikh" case) and the TWA Flight 800 catastrophe. He also negotiated the surrender of the first hostage taker to give up in the Chase Manhattan Bank robbery. During Chris's 24-year tenure with the Bureau, he was trained in the art of negotiation by not only the FBI, but also Scotland Yard and Harvard Law School. He is also a recipient of the Attorney General's Award for Excellence in Law Enforcement and the FBI Agents Association Award for Distinguished and Exemplary Service.

Since 2009, Chris has also worked with Insite Security as their Managing Director of the Kidnapping Resolution Practice. Chris's New Book Empathy and Understanding In Business In the business times of yesteryear, many did not believe that empathy and understanding mixed well with sound business decisions. However, with the more recent breed of entrepreneurs, many have increasingly recognized that successful and long-lasting relationships depend on using both empathy and understanding to build a solid foundation. The master of negotiation and Celebrity Expert(R) in this book, Chris Voss, reminds us that entrepreneurs want lasting relationships that build trust and clientele. He questions if anyone associates empathy with enterprise and entrepreneurism, and states that the qualities of trust and lasting relationships come out of understanding and respect for each other. In short, as stated by Brené Brown, "Empathy fuels connection." To learn more about negotiation and how the Celebrity Experts(R) herein have improved their negotiating skills, it would be beneficial to read about their accomplishments. They have honed their skills and can be great mentors. They will tell you what worked for them and what did not - saving you time, energy and cost of 'reinventing the wheel' - the path to success - in negotiating.

The remarkable true story of author Ralph White's desperate effort to save the entire staff of the Saigon branch of Chase Manhattan bank and their families before the city fell to the North Vietnamese Army. In April 1975, Ralph White was asked by his boss to transfer from the Bangkok branch of the Chase Manhattan Bank to the Saigon Branch. He was tasked with closing the branch if and when it appeared that Saigon would fall to the North Vietnamese army and ensure the safety of the senior Vietnamese employees. But when he arrived, he realized the situation in Saigon was far more perilous than he had imagined. The senior staff members there urged him to evacuate the entire staff of the branch and their families, which was far more than he was authorized to do. Quickly he realized that no one would be safe when the city fell, and it was no longer a question of whether to evacuate but how.

One aspect of war that you don't often hear about is that people still have to keep doing their jobs in the middle of it, especially in poorer countries. Take Vietnam for example. It was a famously brutal war, but during the capture of Saigon, the employees of the Chase Manhattan Bank were will there. At least, they were until Ralph White arrived. Deploying the art of rule-bending, he managed to get 113 citizens out of a war zone.

There's much interest of late about the Chola empire.For many reasons. The reason that looms large is the recent blockbuster movie, Ponniyin Selvan, which, is all about the most famous of the Cholas, Raja Raja. The Cholas were one of the longest running empires in history. The earliest historic references to the Cholas dates back to 300 BC and the empire was disestablished in 1279 AD. That's just shy of 1600 years. By comparison the Mughal empire ran from 1526 - 1857—that's under 350 years.While the Indian region was invaded and occupied variously for thousands of years, the Cholas were significant in their thalassocratic—or maritime—escapades in South East Asia. Their trade routes extended to Guangzhou in China and the silk route on the other side. They ruled the Maldives and Sri Lanka and clearly they knew where to sail to and where to fight.And there was no greater time in all the Chola years than during the rule of Raja Raja Chozhan that ran from 985 to 1014, about three decades. If you made a list of all the stuff he achieved from infrastructure and construction to military campaigns across the south and overseas, you would find it hard to figure how someone could do so much today, leave alone over a thousand years ago.My guest today is Kamini Dandapani. She is a New York based corporate executive—Chase Manhattan Bank and McKinsey consulting. She does not call herself a historian. As a hobby she started a blog writing about historical places she visited in the south of India. There's a link to her blog in her bio below. She says that Aleph, the reputable publishing house, called and asked to write a book.And she did. This book is titled Raja Raja Chola, King Of Kings. I chose this book to present on this podcast because it is a wonderfully structured book.The book is broken down into easily digestible chapters and Kamini strikes no elegant postures in her recounting the rule of one of the most respected kings of the world. In the parlance of the present, a man we might refer to as woke, efficient and progressive.Kamini's biography brings us closer to the history of the south in a way that cannot be replaced by comic books and movies.She is a writer, a historian, a Carnatic singer, A Bharatanatyam dancer, a trained western classical pianist and she joins me now from her home in Manhattan.ABOUT KAMINI DANDAPANIKamini Dandapani lives New York. She has had training in Carnatic music, Bharatanatyam and Pianoforte, She moved to the US to study and work, Her blog, Tales of South India resulted in the writing of her book about Rajaraja Chola, published by Aleph.

Synopsis On today's date in 1931, the Russian-born American conductor, and composer Nicolas Slonimsky was in Paris conducting the first of two concerts of ultra-modern music from the New World. These were presented under the auspices of the Pan American Association of Composers, and funded by an anonymous philanthropist Slonimsky later identified as retired insurance executive and fellow composer Charles Ives. Slonimsky had approached Ives early in 1931 with the idea of presenting a series of new music concerts in New York. When that proved too costly, they suggested mounting the same concerts in Paris. “In 1931, the dollar was still almighty among world currencies,” recalled Slonimsky. “Ives gave me a letter of credit to the Paris branch of the Chase Manhattan Bank in the amount of $1500, an enormous sum of money in French francs at the time. The prestigious Orchestra Straram was engaged for my first Paris concert. I had a brilliant audience: composers, journalists, painters, Italian futurists. There was applause, but also puzzled responses.” One French music critic even entitled his review “The Discovery of America,” writing, “We have, (without joking), just discovered America, thanks to a Christopher Columbus called Slonimsky.” As for Ives, he was very pleased with the success of the concerts, and for a time jokingly addressed Slonimsky as either “Columbus et Vespuccius,” Music Played in Today's Program Henry Cowell (1897 – 1965) –Synchrony (Polish National Radio Orchestra; William Strickland, cond.)

After turning the dream of owning a home into reality for millions of Indians in the course of its 45-year journey, Housing Development Finance Corporation has found a home within the family. Those were the words of HDFC Chairman, 77-year-old Deepak Shantilal Parekh, as he announced the merger of the mortgage financier with HDFC Bank, creating a lending behemoth. The merger has been speculated about for more than two decades, but is coming to fruition now as regulatory changes have reduced the barrier for an amalgamation. The proposed merger will enable the underwriting of larger ticket loans, including infrastructure loans – an urgent need of the country. India's second-biggest lender will get even bigger, shrinking its gap with the State Bank of India, whose total advances at the end of December 2021 stood at 26.66 trillion rupees. Meanwhile, on a pro-forma basis, the merged HDFC Bank's total advances are nearly 17.9 trillion rupees. Deepak Parekh joined HDFC as a Deputy General Manager in 1978, a year after it was founded by his uncle Hasmukhbhai Parekh. Not only did he leave a plum job at Chase Manhattan Bank, but also took a 50% pay cut then. Parekh built HDFC into a top housing finance company. Under his leadership, HDFC forayed into areas like banking, asset management, life and general insurance, education finance, and real estate venture capital. HDFC Bank was born in 1994 and Parekh roped in Aditya Puri to lead it. Puri retired as the MD and CEO of the bank in October 2020. Known for his outspokenness, Parekh became the go-to man for policymakers. He expressed his views openly, be it on the policies of the government or the Reserve Bank of India. Parekh also emerged as India's most authoritative voice when it comes to ethics and best practices in banking, making clean business a cornerstone of how the HDFC group functions. Deepak Parekh's reign at the helm of HDFC is scheduled to end soon. He would be ineligible to serve on the bank's board after the merger, owing to RBI's rules on age limits. By bringing HDFC under the fold of HDFC Bank in his final act, Parekh leaves a legacy that will probably be impossible to match in India's financial services sector. Watch video
Ah, crap. Did we dive into the global economy without first defining the trade economy itself? Yep. Let's take a huge step back and learn about moving stuff back and forth on ships, let's learn about the mythical origins of barter and money (hint: it's not what you think), and let's figure out how things get priced in the first place. We cover a lot of ground in this chapter - we have to look at the coup d'etat of democratically elected Mohammad Mossadegh and how, 25 years later, international oil trade transformed the global economy into a neoliberal fever dream of mass financialization and substituting one set of evil-doers for another, and then another, and another, etc. Wherever the US has enemies, someone is bound to make a lot of money. Take, for instance, Mexico. In the face of the Zapatista uprising, a memo from Chase Manhattan Bank was leaked, revealing how the financial backers of developing nations expect those nations to protect their investment: fix elections, murder dissenters. In this episode, we'll learn all about: equilibrium pricing, numeraires, relative value, comparative advantage, exchange rate, pegging, trade balance, trade surplus, trade deficit, and capacity utilization!
In this first in a series of Hidden History Half Hour episodes I explore the history of perhaps the most important financial institution in the world. Have you heard of it? The Bank For International Settlements was created on "May 17, 1930" to handle the WW2 reparations placed on Germany under the Treaty of Versailles called the Young Plan. There were several very powerful individuals who played a role in the founding of BIS. Per Jacobssen who was eventually named managing director of the International Monetary Fund IMF. He was a member of the Economic and Financial Section of the League of Nations Secretariat from 1920 to 1928. Charles G. Dawes CFR member in which the Dawes Committee was named after. It was a board tasked with a plan to implement the reparations. He was the director of the United States Bureau of the Budget in 1921 and later served on the Allied Reparation Commission in 1923 *Owen D. Young chairman of G.E. & CFR Board Member Hjalmar Schacht co-founder in 1918 of the German Democratic Party, & Currency Commissioner and President of the Reichsbank. Sir Montagu Norman, Governor of the Bank of England for many years, was a partner of Brown, Shipley and Company, & 30th vice president of the United States from 1925 to 1929. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 1925. In 1929, the committee, under the chairmanship of Owen D. Young, the head of General Electric and a member of the Dawes committee, proposed a plan that reduced the total amount of reparations demanded of Germany to 121 billion gold marks, almost $29 billion, payable over 58 years. Their headquarters is based in Basel, Switzerland In a 24 story building that's shaped like a boot and some call it: "The Tower of Basel." Supposedly there are only 18 exclusive members as well almost all central bankers. The BIS is The Bank For Central Bankers." Chairmans of the federal reserve, the bank of England, European central bank, the bank of China and, Central Bank governors of Canada, Sweden, Italy France, Germany, Brazil and India attend. They have a more exclusive meeting that was formally known as the G 10 governors meeting but change to the EEC Economic consultive committee. This is a specialize meeting only for the top elites from advanced countries where they discuss global financial policies and international markets and they prepare for the yearly global economy meeting and decide it's agenda. That meeting covers 30 countries that they decide are the most important to the international economy. There are 60 banks who are members of the bank of international Settlements. Ben Bernanke and Paul Volcker were both of course members. From Dennis L. Ciddy's Secret Records Revealed- On August 5, 1995 the New York Times published an article by Keith Bradshire in which he wrote: "In a small Swiss city sits an international organization so obscure and secretive… Control of the institution the bank for international Settlements lies with some of the worlds most powerful and least visible man: the heads of 32 central banks officials able to shift billions of dollars and alter the course of economies at the stroke of a pen." Joan Veon "The bank for international settlements designed the present borderless flow of monies between countries when it pushed for the deregulation in 1980 of monetary laws of the major North American European and Asian countries. By tearing down national financial borders they created the ability for 1.2 trillion daily to flow around the world (uncontrolled stateless money) looking for the highest interest or fastest currency play." See: Dr. Dennis Cuddy -- Conspiracy Pt. 2 https://newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis281.htm Dennis L. Cuddy THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF AMERICA https://newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis140.htm Steven Solomon THE CONFIDENCE GAME: HOW UNELECTED CENTRAL BANKERS ARE GOVERNING THE CHANGED WORLD ECONOMY https://www.amazon.com/Confidence-Game-Steven-Solomon/dp/0684801825 Now interestingly enough The Swiss government has no power or jurisdiction over the bank of international settlements building and property because it was founded by an international treaty protected by the 1987 headquarters agreement with the Swiss government. It's laws are very similar to that of the united nations and international monetary fund as well as diplomatic embassies. This government police and military would need the permission of the bank of international settlement management to enter the banks buildings. The bank often communicates in code and Their correspondence that you letters are also covered by the same protections to embassies meaning they cannot be opened. The bank of international Settlements is exempt from Swiss taxes. Even its employees do not have to pay income tax on their salaries. Even they are seen similar to diplomats and their bags cannot be searched by the Swiss government. All bankers who travel there are also immune to Swiss laws. Around 600 staff come from over 50 countries to work inside the building. The banks assets are not subject to civil claims under Swiss law and can never be seized. The bank guards bankers secrecy the time agenda an actual attendance list of the global economy meeting is not released in any form. The governors who meet in Basil every other month are public servants their salaries airplane tickets hotel bills and lucrative pensions when they retire or paid out of the public purse. Their duties include managing the supply of money to national economy's setting interest rates that's deciding the value of our savings and investments and they decide whether to focus on austerity or growth in Porten decisions to shape the world. The economist magazine is quoted as saying central bankers are now more powerful than politicians holding the destiny of the global economy in their hands. Adam Labore says the VIS is the most important bank in the world and predates both the IMF and the World Bank. Cofounder SCHACHT was known as the genius behind Nazi finance he during world war two became a de facto arm of the Rice bank excepting a looted Nazi gold and caring out for an exchange deals for Nazi Germany. The banks ties with Berlin a.k.a. the Nazis was full well known in Washington DC and London. Well so many soldiers were fighting and dying in World War II just a few miles over in Switzerland the bank was business as usual. The assistant GM Paul HECHLER was a member of the Nazi party and even signed his letters heil Hitler. After 1945 five bank of international Settlements directors were charged with war crimes! In 1930 Allen Dulles CFR Director, CIA Chief, Lawyer for Sullivan, & Cromwell picked Leon Fraser a Director of The Council On Foreign Relations to be president of the newly established Bank for International Settlements. His uncle Robert Lansing and his grandfather John W Foster had been secretaries of State. In 1937 he became president of the First National Bank of New York. He also held senior positions with General Electric, US Steel and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In the courtyard of his Granville home, Fraser shot himself in the head.

Moreover, they built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to fortified city. The Tower of Basel Matthew 6:24 ESV “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. Ecclesiastes 5:10 ESV He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity. 1 Timothy 6:10 ESV For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.
