There is a con called the Spanish Prisoner. A letter arrives from a stranger: a wealthy man sits in a foreign jail, and for a small advance to free him, he will reward you many times over. The trick is at least four hundred years old. It is also, give or take a few details, the email sitting in your spam folder this morning. I keep that in mind whenever someone tells me cybercrime is a technology problem. The tools change. The mark does not. We are still robbed through the same prehistoric wiring: a flash of fear, a moment of greed, a decision made in panic before the slow part of the brain wakes up. That is the thread I pulled on with Sarah Armstrong-Smith at InfoSecurity Europe. Sarah spent nearly thirty years in cyber and crisis leadership, was Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft, and now runs Secure Horizons. She has written two books on the human side of all this and sits on the UK Government Cyber Advisory Board. After all of it, she says the thing most people in her position will not say out loud: whatever we are doing is not working. More tools, more money, more people, more AI, and the problem keeps getting worse. Attack, wake-up call, attack, wake-up call. How many wake-up calls, she asks, does anyone need? I asked what keeps her up at night. She described an industrial accident on the scale of 9/11, triggered through a network: the first time a cyber incident kills people in numbers. We have been lucky so far. She doubts luck is a plan. The industry loves a big number, and the number is exactly where the human disappears. X million records stolen, Y terabytes gone. The day before, my friend Geoff White sat in this same chair and described a ransomware attack that shut down a hospital, which meant a woman missed the cancer appointment she had counted on. That is an Armageddon, and it has a name and a face. Sarah, as it happens, knows Geoff's work well enough to carry a line from him on the back of her book. The human element keeps finding the same small circle of people willing to talk about it. So how do we move this from a line item to a fact of society? Her answer is collective resilience. There is no prize for being the last one standing, because we are all wired into the same supply chain, the same dependencies, the same brittle web. And the smallest businesses, the ones without a war chest to ride out the storm, are the ones we discuss the least. Then a statistic. Close to half of all crime in the UK is now fraud or cyber. Around one percent of policing is pointed at it. Read those two numbers again. We fund what we can see, and we want officers on the street because a visible patrol both deters the thief and reassures the neighbourhood. The crime that actually empties our accounts happens somewhere we have agreed not to look. Follow the money, Sarah says, and you rarely stop at one criminal's pocket. It pays for the next thing: drugs, weapons, and more often than people imagine, the trafficking of human beings. Will AI save us? She did not flinch. Whatever you build to detect, the other side uses to evade. The asymmetry holds. Technology is part of the answer and never the whole of it, because the problem was never only technical. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the person behind the number: the one who misses the appointment, the small shop that never reopens. We leave behind the fantasy that a clever enough machine will spare us the harder work, which is teaching a whole society to recognize the Spanish Prisoner when it arrives, wearing this year's technology. Sarah's books are linked below, with a second edition on the way. Geoff's conversation is part of this same coverage. And if you want more of these, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com.

Who can't keep it in his pants? Find out on this week's PlayingFTSE Show!We recorded this show on Thursday before the stock market dropped on Friday. Pity, that might have helped Steve W's performance this week…It's been a while since we looked at the London Stock Exchange Group. But Steve D thinks it's time to check back in. The stock has been something of an AI casualty as the market doubts its data moat. The latest results, however, seem to tell a different story…Since Warren Buffett stepped down as CEO, Berkshire Hathaway has been a busy place. Greg Abel's taken a $10bn stake in Alphabet.It's the kind of deal ordinary investors can't do. But is it a sign that the AI spending that's been propping the market up is coming to an end?Broadcom shares fell sharply after the company's earnings report.

This week Nick talks to Scott Lane Scott is the Founder and CEO of Speeki and serves as its Principal Auditor. He brings more than 25 years of experience in governance, compliance, and ESG risk, having built and scaled international businesses focused on helping organisations strengthen risk management and stakeholder trust.  After working for Sun Microsystems and Hitachi, Scott founded The Red Flag Group in 2006, where he served as CEO and Chairman. Under Scott's leadership, the company became a globally recognised expert in risk and compliance, advising many of the world's largest organisations. Scott exited the business in 2020 when The Red Flag Group became part of London Stock Exchange Group following its acquisition by Refinitiv. Nick and Scott discuss how audit and assurance capabilities have expanded from governance and compliance into broader ESG and sustainability reporting. They explore the growing need for independent verification of ESG claims, alongside the evolving global debate around ESG regulation, reporting, and governance standards. Book Choice Good To Great by Jim CollinsMusic ChoiceBruno Mars, FKA twigs, Nine Inch Nails, BIGBANG, Karol G & David GuettaThis content is issued by Zeus Capital Limited (“Zeus”) (Incorporated in England & Wales No. 4417845), which is authorised and regulated in the United Kingdom by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) for designated investment business, (Reg No. 224621) and is a member firm of the London Stock Exchange.

The bullish momentum recently seen in the Chinese market is likely to continue thanks to the structural opportunities provided by the country's rapid adoption of emerging technologies and ongoing economic recovery, said experts.专家表示，中国市场近期的看涨势头有望延续，这得益于中国快速采用新兴技术所带来的结构性机遇以及持续性经济复苏。Their comments were made on Monday after the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index climbed to an 11-year high of 4225.02 points. The Shenzhen Component Index jumped 2.16 percent and the tech-heavy ChiNext in Shenzhen surged 3.5 percent. Combined trading value on the Shanghai, Shenzhen and Beijing bourses topped 3.56 trillion yuan ($520 billion), up nearly 16 percent from the previous trading day.上述评论发表于5月11日。当日，上证综指攀升至4225.02点，创下11年来新高；深证成指上涨2.16%，以科技股为主的创业板指数大涨3.5%。沪、深、京三地交易所合计成交额突破3.56万亿元人民币（约合5200亿美元），较前一交易日放量近16%。A-share listed semiconductor firms fueled the Monday rally, reporting an average daily price gain of 5.01 percent.5月11日的涨势主要由A股半导体上市公司拉动，相关个股当日平均涨幅达5.01%。Fang Jian, manager of the integrated circuit hybrid fund at Yinhua Fund, said the strong performance of Chinese tech companies may have just begun in earnest. The artificial intelligence surge and semiconductor localization will generate enormous investment opportunities in 2026 as chipmakers will see "a big year of orders".银华基金集成电路混合型基金经理方建认为，中国科技股的强势表现或许才刚刚真正启动，人工智能浪潮与半导体国产化将在2026年催生巨大投资机遇，芯片制造商将迎来“订单大年”。On Friday, China's top internet, economic and industry regulators jointly issued a guideline to regulate the application and innovative development of AI agents.5月8日，国家互联网、经济和行业主管部门联合发布指导意见，规范人工智能智能体的应用与创新发展。While foundational models remain the key investment thesis at the current stage, investors are recommended to keep a close eye on power suppliers, companies with deeper and earlier AI adoption, as well as AI enablers that benefit from China's semiconductor localization trend, experts from Morgan Stanley wrote in a report released on Sunday.摩根士丹利专家在周日发布的报告中指出，尽管基础模型仍是当前阶段的核心投资主题，但建议投资者重点关注电力供应商、较早且深入切入AI领域的公司，以及受益于中国半导体国产化趋势的人工智能赋能企业。The development and application of new thematic indices, analysis tools driven by AI innovation and the completion of financial market infrastructure have fueled the Chinese capital market with robust momentum, said David Day, managing director of the London Stock Exchange Group for Asia-Pacific.伦敦证券交易所集团亚太区董事总经理戴介明表示，新型主题指数的开发与应用、AI创新驱动的分析工具以及金融市场基础设施的不断完善，为中国资本市场注入了强劲动力。China's strong economic numbers over the past few months -including exports and industrial production — have provided more confidence to international investors, Thomas Fang, head of China Global Markets at UBS, said during a news briefing on Monday, adding that China is likely to reenter an inflationary cycle in the third quarter.瑞银集团中国全球市场主管房东明5月11日在新闻吹风会上表示，过去几个月中国强劲的经济数据（包括出口和工业增加值）进一步提振了国际投资者的信心。他还预计，中国可能在第三季度重新进入通胀周期。Meng Lei, China equity strategist at UBS Securities, upgraded his forecast for A-share companies' profitability growth rate this year to 11 percent, up from 8 percent at the end of last year. This will serve as one major driver for an A-share bull run throughout 2026, Meng said.瑞银证券中国股票策略师孟磊将其对今年A股公司盈利增长率的预测从去年年底的8%上调至11%。他表示，这将成为2026年A股走牛的主要驱动力之一。Continued capital inflows into the A-share market will be another engine, which will be comprised of household savings directed into wealth management products, recovery in the issuance of mutual fund products, thematic exchange traded funds and high net wealth individuals investing more in private equities or quantitative funds, he added.他补充说，持续的资本流入是A股的另一大引擎。这些资金包括：居民储蓄转向理财产品，公募基金发行回暖，主题ETF（交易型开放式指数基金）扩容，以及高净值个人加大对私募股权或量化基金的投资。Market sentiment was also buoyed on Monday as the Foreign Ministry announced that United States President Donald Trump will pay a three-day state visit to China from Wednesday.5月11日，市场情绪也得到了提振。中国外交部宣布，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普将从5月13日开始对中国进行为期三天的国事访问。The visit, which will take place as scheduled, will directly improve the risk appetite in the A-share market, said Chen Guo, chief strategist of Eastmoney Securities.东方财富证券首席策略师陈果表示，此次访问将如期进行，并将直接改善A股市场的风险偏好。Overall market confidence will be strengthened. Export companies may benefit in anticipation of a marginal easing in tariff tensions. In the event of phased procurement or investment arrangements, a potential sentiment-driven recovery may be seen in companies specializing in cyclical products, power equipment and machinery, Chen said.陈果认为，整体市场信心将进一步增强。出口企业有望受益于关税紧张局势的边际缓和预期。若出现阶段性采购或投资安排，那些主营周期性产品、电力设备和机械的公司或将迎来情绪驱动的反弹。fueled /ˈfjuːəld/推动，助推news briefing /njuːz ˈbriːfɪŋ/新闻吹风会private equities /ˈpraɪvət ˈekwətiz/私募股权mutual fund /ˈmjuːtʃuəl fʌnd/公募基金buoyed /bɔɪd/提振，推高

Last week, the published economic data presented a misleading picture of domestic growth. The composite Purchasing Managers' Index ("PMI") unexpectedly jumped to a two-month high, driven by corporate panic as firms are stockpiling inventory due to supply chain fears, triggering the largest monthly surge in the Input Prices Index in nearly three decades. These costs are now trickling down to consumers, with consumer confidence plunging to a record low, as headline inflation accelerated to 3.3%, aided by a spike in motor fuels and food prices. The only silver lining for the Bank of England ("BoE") is a cooling labour market with average weekly earnings falling to 3.8% and April pay settlements softening, allowing the central bank to potentially avoid a domestic wage-price spiral...Stocks featured:London Stock Exchange Group, Compass Group and MondiTo find out more about the investment management services offered by Walker Crips, please visit our website:https://www.walkercrips.co.uk/This podcast is intended to be Walker Crips Investment Management's own commentary on markets.

In this episode of Plugged In, we turn to a topic we haven't covered often; but one that's rapidly moving back into the spotlight: coal.As war in the Middle East disrupts LNG supply chains and drives gas prices sharply higher, European power markets are being forced to adapt. With gas-fired generation becoming increasingly expensive, coal is, at least temporarily, regaining economic relevance.We're now seeing early signs of increased coal imports, particularly in key markets like Germany, alongside shifting profitability dynamics between coal and gas-fired generation.So is this just a short-term market reaction… or a more significant structural change? Richard  speaks to Toby Hassall, Lead Analyst at London Stock Exchange Group, and Firat Ergene, Lead Insight Analyst at Kpler, join the podcast to break down the data, covering fuel switching, regional demand, price dynamics, and what forward markets are signalling for winter and beyond. Setting the scene is our own Laurence Walker.  Host: Richard Sverrisson – Editor-in-Chief, Montel NewsGuests: Laurence Walker – Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Montel News Toby Hassall – Lead Analyst, London Stock Exchange Group Firat Ergene – Lead Insight Analyst, KplerEditor: Oscar BirkProducer: Alexandra Carlon

London Stock Exchange Group isn't a flashy name in the AI boom. It doesn't build chips or train models. But for years, it's quietly made money doing something far less glamorous - selling the infrastructure, data, and plumbing that global markets rely on every day.In this episode, Finimize Analyst Russell Burns joins the pod to talk about why recent fears around AI disrupting financial data have hit London Stock Exchange Group so hard, why the selloff may have gone too far - and ultimately, why it makes the firm a scintillating opportunity.Try Finimize Pro

The UK economy presented a nuanced picture last week, with signs of stability tempered by persistent structural challenges. Inflation held steady at 3.8% year-on-year, below forecasts, fuelling speculation of a Bank of England (“BoE”) rate cut in December, with futures now pricing a 75% probability. However BoE officials remained cautious as Governor Andrew Bailey highlighted Brexit's drag on growth, while Monetary Policy Committee member Megan Greene resisted quarterly cuts. Economic data were mixed, with the Purchasing Managers' Index rising to a two-month high (51.1) and retail sales surprising positively, while borrowing hit a five-year peak and construction activity reached an 11-year low. Consumer sentiment improved slightly, but UK public inflation expectations over the next 12 months climbed to 4.2%, underscoring the BoE's delicate balancing act...Stocks featured:London Stock Exchange Group, Rentolkil Initial and FresnilloTo find out more about the investment management services offered by Walker Crips, please visit our website:https://www.walkercrips.co.uk/This podcast is intended to be Walker Crips Investment Management's own commentary on markets.

European gas storage levels are lower compared to the same time last year, but many market participants are fairly confident that there will be enough of the fossil fuel for the months ahead. However, the weather remains the uncertain factor with some experts estimating that gas prices could jump more than 30% if Europe is hit with very cold temperatures this winter.What's the outlook for prices as demand remains low, Europe becomes increasingly reliant on US LNG amid an unstable geopolitical situation?In this episode, Richard sits down with the London Stock Exchange Group to discuss several potential seasonal scenarios and the key market drivers for the months ahead. Host: Richard Sverrisson - Editor-in-Chief, Montel NewsContributor: Laurence Walker - Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Montel NewsGuest: Wayne Bryan - Research Principal, London Stock Exchange GroupEditor: Bled MaliqiProducer: Sarah Knowles

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:(1) European Union envoys are set to meet as early as this week to formulate a plan for measures to respond to a possible no-deal scenario with US President Donald Trump, whose tariff negotiating position is seen to have stiffened ahead of an Aug. 1 deadline.(2) The global economy started 2025 on a solid footing. Now the ground has shifted. We estimate the average US tariff rate has risen to 13.3% from 2.3% in January. That's already the highest rate since 1939. As the impacts of President Trump's trade war crystallize, we expect a $2 trillion hit to global GDP by the end of 2027.(3) Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said he intended to stay on even as his ruling coalition suffered a historic setback in an upper house election on Sunday, an outcome that may further unsettle markets.(4) London Stock Exchange Group is weighing whether to introduce 24-hour trading in response to growing demand from small investors, the Financial Times reported.(5) UK home sellers slashed prices at a record pace this month as a decade-high number of properties for sale tips the scales in favor of buyers in some of the nation’s most-expensive markets.Podcast Conversation: In 'Alien: Earth' the Real Baddie Is Tech's Corporate CultureSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jeannette is joined by the one and only Vivienne Artz OBE, the CEO of the FTSE Women Leaders Review, to discuss her remarkable journey in the financial sector and her passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Vivienne shares her experiences, including overcoming impostor syndrome and the challenges she faced in her career, such as navigating a male-dominated environment and the importance of mentorship and sponsorship. She also highlights the significance of data in driving change within organisations and the need for structural adjustments to create equitable opportunities for women in leadership roles. KEY TAKEAWAYS It's important to be open to opportunities and not wait to be tapped on the shoulder. Taking initiative and applying for roles, even if you feel underqualified, can lead to unexpected successes. Data plays a crucial role in understanding and addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in organisations. It can reveal insights about performance and representation that may not be immediately apparent. Challenges and setbacks are common in any career. Learning from difficult experiences and surrounding yourself with a supportive network can help you bounce back and grow stronger. Effective leadership is characterised by inclusivity, where diverse voices are heard and respected. This not only benefits the organisation but also creates a more collaborative and dynamic work environment. It's essential to recognise when to let go of certain roles or projects to make space for new opportunities. Renewing focus and passion for your work can lead to greater fulfilment and success in your career. BEST MOMENTS "When the door closes, look for all the open windows" "Imposter syndrome is a reality, but it's one that you can let take hold and define who you are, or you can say, well, you know what, that is." "What we really need are more women as executive directors, and we need more women as CEOs and CFOs at the leadership level." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

In our latest episode, we talk with Marianthe Evangelidis, Director of Sustainable Finance & Investment at LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group), where we discuss how knowing yourself and your values can help you evaluate opportunities, make decisions and lead you to your most fulfilled life. Marianthe shares the courageous decision to embark on a two-year sabbatical with her husband, sailing from the UK to New Zealand, which was driven by their shared values of adventure, learning and sustainability. This sabbatical was not just a break from work but a deeply aligned step with her personal values and purpose, allowing her to engage in sustainability projects and community building on remote islands. Rather than feeling this time away from the office set her career back, Marianthe translated her experiences into roles more aligned to her values upon her return. In addition, Marianthe discusses empathy as a crucial tool to drive change, helping her bring others along on her journey and highlights the importance of senior sponsorship in driving successful projects, stating that having senior support is crucial for implementing change effectively. "You had a lot of enthusiasm. You had a lot of people wanting to work towards making a success. But you do need that senior sponsorship to actually move things quickly as well."

All eyes were on the Fed in the first half of 2024, but with core PCE holding steady and no rate cuts, how did the other parts of the economy and the markets fare? In this midyear episode, Schwab experts look ahead to the second half of 2024 to consider what investors might expect from the U.S. stock market, the global markets, and policy and politics in Washington D.C.First, Liz Ann Sonders and Kevin Gordon discuss the current trends and bifurcations in the equity market. They highlight the significant spread between large-cap and small-cap performance, with the S&P 500® outperforming the Russell 2000. They also discuss the divergence within large-cap stocks, particularly in the growth trio of tech, communication services, and consumer discretionary sectors. The conversation emphasizes the concentration of performance in a small number of major drivers, such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon. They also touch on the bifurcation between index-level gains and weaker member-level performance in the NASDAQ. The conversation concludes by noting the relationship between market bifurcations and broader economic trends.Next, Liz Ann interviews Jeffrey Kleintop, Schwab's chief global strategist. Their conversation covers the global economic outlook, China's market performance, central bank policy, geopolitical risk, election risks, and asset allocation. Jeff discusses the recovery in the global manufacturing sector, China's stock market performance, central bank rate cuts, geopolitical developments, and the importance of international diversification.Finally, Kathy Jones interviews Mike Townsend, Schwab's managing director of legislative and regulatory affairs and the host of the WashingtonWisepodcast. They discuss the legislative agenda for the second half of the year, the upcoming presidential election, the regulatory agenda, and the battle for control of Congress. On Investing is an original podcast from Charles Schwab.

In this episode of the IMPACT= Podcast, we talk to Jane Goodland, Group Head of Sustainability at the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) - a cornerstone of global finance, providing a platform for businesses and economies to access capital, manage risk, and create jobs. In this role, Jane leads a team who work in partnership with a wide range of stakeholders across the business and externally, to embed LSEG's sustainability strategy across the full value chain including its own operations, supply chain, market engagement and customer solutions. Jane has over 25 years of experience in sustainable finance. Her extensive career has seen her at the forefront of the sustainable and responsible investment market, where she has been instrumental in designing and establishing new sustainable finance capabilities across various market segments. Prior to her role at LSEG, Jane served as the Corporate Affairs Director at Quilter, specializing in external communications, public affairs, responsible investment, and stakeholder engagement. Her tenure at Willis Towers Watson as the Global Head of Sustainable and Responsible Investment further solidified her expertise, where she developed new manager research capabilities and consulted on investment services for large institutional clients. In this conversation, we talk to Jane about her pivotal role in shaping the group's sustainability strategy on a global scale and making the most of London's position as global financial hub to drive sustainable practices and impact investment.

If you were asked ‘What is the London Stock Exchange Group, (LSEG)?', most investors would answer, ‘the London Stock Exchange, of course.' Yet, the correct answer would be, “well that's only 5% of revenues today”, and then you might pause and wonder what the rest is… In this conversation with David Schwimmer, a veteran of Goldman Sachs, and CEO of the LSEG since 2018, we examine an organisation that today has revenues of £8bn, an operating income of £2.8bn and a market capitalisation of approximately £50bn. LSEG is the 14th largest company in the UK, employing 25,000 people in 70 countries, and is now 4% owned by Microsoft (as of May 2024).  David explains the LSEG business today, how they are the no.1 globally in real time financial data, how they serve customers in areas from risk-analytics, FX, bond trading, KYC, ALM verification. He discusses the partnership with Microsoft, and the rapid shifts in technology, as well as their impact on business execution and enhancing productivity. Finally we have an earnest conversation about the UK, which has the second largest pension market in the world, London's enviable position, and why persistent negative press around delisting may have created a stronger narrative than the facts would suggest. ​​The Money Maze Podcast is kindly sponsored by Schroders, IFM Investors and the World Gold Council.

In the face of a waning American economic momentum over the past year, a prevailing sense of apprehension has begun to arise from within the circles responsible for its affairs. A past figurehead at the helm of America's economic governance warned of a potential threat to its financial stability. Kevin Hassett, the former Chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, sounded the alarm bells regarding the unfolding political drama on a Tuesday episode of 'Mornings with Maria'. Hassett voiced his concerns about what he viewed as a deeply partisan and perhaps constitutionally dubious case taking place in New York. The case, targeting none other than former President Trump, seemed to have provoked a disturbing question. The question was not merely about the figure at the center of the ordeal; it was about the prospect of a former U.S. President being incarcerated and the reaction that American and global markets might exhibit. If such a scenario was to unfold, he asked, would one feel optimistic about purchasing U.S. Treasury bonds the next day? The economic landscape these comments were situated within was one that failed to inspire confidence. The Commerce Department's first reading of this annual GDP growth smacked of underperformance. Our macroeconomic health, as represented by the GDP (the aggregate of goods and services produced), posted growth of 1.6% in the first quarter of the year. This figure not only marked the slowest advancement in two years, but it also fell significantly shy of the 2.4% increase many economic pundits, including the London Stock Exchange Group's economists, had been projecting. The repercussions were immediate. This disappointing growth momentum prompted stock investors to retreat, triggering a sell-off in the markets. The reaction wasn't limited to the perimeters of Wall Street either. The Dow Jones Industrial Average took a hefty hit, plummeting by 375 points. In'tandem'with this, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite found themselves on slippery terrain, closing 0.5% and 0.6% lower, respectively.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
