Thanks for listening, and we apologize for the mishap!** Is Trump's Middle East Policy a Break From the Past? Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump visited three countries in the Middle East—Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar—on the first scheduled foreign trip of his second term. While many of the headlines from the trip focused on the 747 jetliner Qatar donated for use as Air Force One, it's probably more notable that Trump rejected decades of Western intervention in the region and declared that there would be “no more lectures” from America. Is the Trump administration re-aligning American priorities in the region? F. Gregory Gause, visiting scholar at the Middle East Institute, joins FP Live to discuss why the Gulf monarchies are rising in importance.  Suggested reading (FP links are paywall-free): Howard W.

Broadcasting from Planful's Perform 25 conference in Miami, CFO Thought Leader presents frontline finance insights in an on‑location special. CEO Grant Halloran rejects the narrative that generative AI replaces people; instead he calls it the only viable antidote to a looming three‑million‑professional accounting shortage and collapsing CPA pipeline.

U.S. President Donald Trump came to office promising mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, but he hasn't actually hit the numbers he said he would. Is that because it's harder than it sounds, or are more plans in the works? And what will Trump's immigration policy do to America's standing in the world? Janet Napolitano, a former governor of Arizona and secretary of homeland security under President Barack Obama, joins FP Live to share her experience managing the issue of illegal immigration.  Suggested reading (FP links are paywall-free): Jonathan M.

Wiener Wahl: SPÖ-Bürgermeister Michael Ludwig muss sich entscheiden: Will er die Koalition mit den NEOS weiterführen? // Schwarze Serie: Die ÖVP halbiert sich bei der Landtagswahl in Wien // Feuriger Feiertag: Nicht nur die SPÖ inszeniert den 1. Mai, auch bei der FPÖ schwingt man Reden

Mit düsteren Aussichten im Rampenlicht: Finanzminister Markus Marterbauer hält seine erste Budgetrede und schwört Österreich auf hartes Sparen ein. // Opposition unglaubwürdig? FPÖ und Grüne zerfetzen die Sparpläne der Regierung und sind nicht ganz unschuldig daran. // Anklage ohne Abgang: Der Fall Wöginger wirft wieder die Frage auf ab wann müssen Politiker den Hut nehmen.

Bei der Ankündigung der oberösterreichischen Gesundheitslandesrätin Christine Haberlander fühlten sich viele Eltern sicher wieder an die Corona-Zeit erinnert: Die ÖVP-Politikerin möchte eine Masern-Impfung der Kinder zur Voraussetzung für den Bezug des Kindergeldes machen. Von der FPÖ, die als Juniorpartner ebenfalls an der Landesregierung beteiligt ist, kam bisher nur verhaltener Protest. AUF1-Nachrichtenleiter Martin Müller-Mertens hat mit der MFG-Abgeordneten Dagmar Häusler diskutiert, worauf Eltern sich jetzt einstellen müssen.

How do you build products that customers demand?Topic 3 -  Let's talk about AI and AGI for a moment. We hear all the time how disruptive this will be. What are your thoughts here, and how do we develop both adaptability and resiliency to new technologies?Topic 4 - Let's talk FP&A (financial planning & analysis). Our core listeners out there tend to skew more towards the tech and infrastructure side, but a core theme of this show is always to be learning as much of the business as possible to apply those concepts. As someone with a background in both worlds, plus now running an FP&A startup, what do you wish folks on the technical side of the house knew more about to make their jobs easier?Topic 5 - We posted a link in the show notes for a video you did on the “overnight success” of Runway.

Deutschland diskutiert, ob es zum Schutz der Demokratie ein AfD-Verbot geben soll. In Österreich bekam die FPÖ sogar den Auftrag zur Regierungsbildung. Die Frage nach einem Verbot der FPÖ scheint absurd angesichts der freiheitlichen Wahlerfolge. Aber in Deutschland wird genau diese Frage in Bezug auf die AfD diskutiert. Und politisch passt kein Blatt Papier zwischen den Rechtsextremen in Deutschland und Österreich. In Deutschland gibt es jetzt eine sogenannte Stillhaltezusage des Verfassungsschutzes, bis die Einsprüche der Afd vor Gericht geklärt sind. Bei der Einstufung als gesichert rechtsextrem bleibt es, nur werden die Folgen vorläufig ausgesetzt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Two nuclear-armed countries, India and Pakistan, are locked in their most serious conflict in two decades. Early Wednesday morning, after weeks of pledging to retaliate for the deadliest terrorist attack in more than a decade, India launched missiles across its border into Pakistan. Meanwhile, Pakistan claims it took down Indian fighter jets and has vowed to respond. FP's Ravi Agrawal asks Tanvi Madan, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, how far tensions could spiral. They discuss the options for de-escalation and what role external powers can play.

Mit einer Flut von 827 parlamentarischen Anfragen will die FPÖ in Österreich eine umfassende Aufarbeitung der Corona-Maßnahmen erzwingen.

Harvard has finally released its 311-page report on the antisemitism Jewish students face on one of America's most elite college campuses. The stories of Jews being forced to conceal outward displays of their religion, being shut out of academic and extracurricular spaces alike, and facing systemic harassment are horrifying. However, the intensity of the antisemitism at Harvard is also unsurprising. And the manner in which this report was released indicates the university has no real intention of fixing the root causes of Jew hatred on its Cambridge campus. How did Harvard University go from being a quarter Jewish to becoming a bastion of antisemitism? And how does foreign funding perpetuate antisemitism at elite universities? Maya Sulkin is a reporter at The Free Press. Before that, Maya was chief of staff of the FP. She started at the FP as an intern in 2021 while a student at Columbia University.Read the transcript here. Subscribe to our Substack here. Read Maya's article in the Free Press here.

Die vorgezogene Landtagswahl in Wien ist geschlagen. Die rund 1,3 Millionen Wahlberechtigten haben ihre Stimmen abgegeben. Wenig überraschend landet Michael Ludwig mit der SPÖ auf dem ersten Platz, gefolgt von der FPÖ, die ihren Stimmenanteil nahezu verdreifachen kann. Die SPÖ kann sich nun einen Koalitionspartner aus ÖVP, Grünen und Neos aussuchen. Die Freiheitlichen hat man bereits im Vorfeld ausgeschlossen. Welche Partnerschaft wahrscheinlich ist, wo die Tücken für die SPÖ liegen und was der Totalabsturz der ÖVP für die Kanzlerpartei im Bund bedeutet, erklärt heute Petra Stuiber, stellvertretende Chefredakteurin bei DER STANDARD.

Am Sonntag wählt Wien den Gemeinderat und die Bezirksvertretungen. Die SPÖ dürfte stärkste Kraft werden, die FPÖ nach dem Wahlfiasko 2020 wieder auf Platz zwei landen. Spitzenkandidat Dominik Nepp dürfte das trotz Spesenskandal und Taxiaffäre gelingen, DER STANDARD berichtete. Und das waren nicht die einzigen Aufreger im Wahlkampf. Obwohl die FPÖ gegen angebliche "Asylmillionen" wettert, die SPÖ-Bürgermeister Michael Ludwig verteile, wirbt sie auch um migrantische Wählergruppen und Muslime. Journalisten beobachten einen Schattenwahlkampf mit Besuchen bei Moscheevereinen und Pressekonferenzen für türkischsprachige Medien. Was sich die Freiheitlichen etwa von Anhängern des türkischen Präsidenten Recep Tayyip Erdoğan erhoffen, warum die Parteispitze zu den Bemühungen um Migranten schweigt und ob diese Taktik auch nach hinten losgehen könnte – darum geht es in dieser Folge von Inside Austria.

SPÖ-Bürgermeister Michael Ludwig kann die rechtsrechte FPÖ in Schach halten und gilt als wahrscheinlicher Sieger. Aber: Es gibt viele Wienerinnen und Wiener, die nicht wählen können.

In this episode of Careers in Finance, we sit down with Paul Barnhurst—also known as The FP&A Guy—to explore what it means to build a career in Financial Planning & Analysis. From his early days in procurement to leading FP&A functions across multiple companies, Paul shares how the role has evolved into one of the most strategic areas of corporate finance today.If you're exploring a future in FP&A—or wondering how to turn finance experience into something entrepreneurial—this is the episode to tune into.

It was a morning commute Chris Greiner had made hundreds of times before. Living in old Shanghai and working in the city's sleek business district, Greiner's daily drive to the Jin Mao Tower often stretched well beyond an hour. But on this particular day, his driver told him they'd arrive in just 30 minutes. Puzzled but intrigued, Greiner went along—only to discover the traffic patterns had shifted. “They repainted the lines,” the driver told him with a grin. The same bridge, same road—just used differently.Greiner never forgot the lesson. As CFO of Zeta Global, he often draws from that experience when approaching business challenges. “You might be fixed in your infrastructure, but there's almost always another way through,” he tells us.That mindset is now shaping Zeta's evolving AI strategy. Rather than applying AI for efficiency's sake, Greiner tells us his team follows the real patterns of work—starting with customer behaviors. “We began by observing how marketers use our platform,” he says, “then built automations to eliminate keystrokes and surface next-best actions.”Now, the finance function is adopting the same approach. Greiner's team is analyzing daily tasks across accounting, FP&A, and sales operations to identify which can be codified and automated. Zeta is building agent-based workflows that transform data into actionable insights—at the push of a button.“We're letting the work show us where to go,” Greiner says. And like that rush-hour bridge in Shanghai, sometimes a better route is just a few new lines away.

U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs have roiled markets around the world and triggered a full-blown trade war with China. Even after he suspended his so-called reciprocal tariffs, the measures he kept in place are still more dramatic than anything the world has seen in decades. Most economists believe free trade­—not tariffs—is the best way to increase global prosperity. But Trump says other countries are taking advantage of the United States. On this episode of Counterpoint, we'll hear from two leading economists who feel very differently about tariffs. Oren Cass, the founder of American Compass, generally supports them, while Kimberly Clausing, a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, believes the Trump tariff policy is a disaster for the United States. Their debate was moderated by Foreign Policy's editor-in-chief, Ravi Agrawal, and originally aired on FP Live. Counterpoint is a production of Foreign Policy, in partnership with the Doha Forum. It is hosted by FP deputy editor Sasha Polakow-Suransky. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
