The New Zealand First leader says they'll be telling the National Australia Bank we want our bank back - as he lays out plans for the Government to buy BNZ. The party will campaign on the purchase - after its sale in 1992 - and merging it with Kiwibank to create a National Bank of New Zealand. Winston Peters told Mike Hosking that the bank may not be for sale, but they'll make sure it is. He says he doubts the National Australia Bank would turn them down - so Kiwis won't be ripped off for much longer if NZ First gets back in.

In diesen Tagen wird in Bundesbern über die künftigen Gewinnausschüttungen der Schweizerischen Nationalbank verhandelt. Denn wie viel Geld die Nationalbank jährlich auszahlt an den Bund und an die Kantone, ist festgehalten in einer sogenannten Gewinnausschüttungsvereinbarung. Diese Vereinbarung wird alle fünf Jahre erneuert – und zwar gemeinsam von der Schweizerischen Nationalbank und dem Finanzdepartement. Dabei geht es um sehr viel Geld: Aktuell überweist die Nationalbank maximal sechs Milliarden Franken pro Jahr an den Bund und die Kantone. Wird die Nationalbank schon bald mehr Geld auszahlen? Wie genau funktionieren diese Gewinnausschüttungen? Und wessen Geld zahlt die Nationalbank eigentlich aus? Das und mehr erfahren Sie im neuen Geldcast Update. www.fabiocanetg.ch Der Schweizer Wirtschaftspodcast mit den hochkarätigsten Gästen!

Paul Jones, President of Versamet Royalties (TSX: VMET) (NASDAQ: VMET), joins us to outline the key benefits and considerations from the news on April 6th which announced their acquisition of a 3.52% existing gold stream, from fund entities managed by Orion Resource Partners LP and fund entities managed by affiliates of Blackstone Inc., in respect of gold production from the Eskay Creek gold-silver project; owned and operated by Skeena Resources Limited, and located in British Columbia, Canada,   Versamet paid an upfront cash payment of $340 million and issued 2,054,906 common shares to the Vendors. Versamet funded the upfront cash payment through an amended and restated credit facility, which includes an increase of the existing revolving facility from $200 million to $250 million, maturing in March 2029, and a new term facility in the amount of $150 million, maturing in March 2028, for a combined total of $400 million, from the Bank of Montreal and National Bank of Canada. The Amended Credit Facility provides for a $100 million accordion on the revolving facility once the term facility has been repaid in full.   Gold Stream Summary   Gold Stream:Under the Gold Stream, Versamet is entitled to receive 3.52% of the payable gold production for the life of the mine, provided that the mine successfully achieves certain completion tests on or before September 30, 2027. The Gold Stream is uncapped and has no step-downs or buydown provisions and includes an area of interest. Production Profile:Eskay is expected to produce an average of over 300,000 ounces of gold per year in its first 5 years and an average of approximately 230,000 ounces of gold per year over its initial 12 year life. Delivery Payments:For gold ounces delivered to the Gold Stream, Versamet will make ongoing cash payments equal to 10% of the spot gold price at the time of delivery. Gold Stream Percentage:If the completion tests are not satisfied by September 30, 2027, the stream percentage shall increase to 3.57%, 3.62% and 3.67% if completion is achieved in the first, second or third calendar quarters following September 30, 2027, respectively, and a further additional 0.13% per quarter for the remaining calendar quarters until satisfaction of the completion test. Minimum Delivery Provision:If a cumulative total of 2.61 million ounces of payable gold applicable to the Gold Stream has not been produced by April 1, 2040, Versamet is entitled to a one-time delivery of gold equal to the difference between cumulative gold ounces delivered to the Gold Stream at the time and 2.61 million ounces multiplied by the Gold Stream percentage at the time. Security:The Gold Stream is secured over the Eskay Creek project assets.   Paul highlights the nuances between streams versus royalties, the positive tax treatment the stream will receive, the importance of partnering on robust projects with strong operators, and the torque that royalty companies can have if they can demonstrate meaningful growth to the market.    Once Eskay is up and operating at full commercial production, it should augment the projected 20,000-23,000 Gold Equivalent Ounces (GEOs) by an additional 10,000 GEOs per annum.  Paul points out that by borrowing approximately 1/3 of their overall market cap, that they've increased the GEOs by essentially half; not including any future exploration or production upside on the Project.     If you have any follow up questions for the team over at West Red Lake Gold please email us at Fleck@kereport.com and Shad@kereport.com.     Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

How should a central bank respond to energy shocks? Will high oil and gas prices bolster the uptake of renewables? And what is the true cost of net zero 2050? This week on Cleaning Up, host Michael Liebreich sits down with Pierre Wunsch, Governor of the National Bank of Belgium and member of the European Central Bank's governing council, for a candid, behind-the-scenes discussion about how central banks should and can respond to inflation, energy volatility, and climate transition. From the recent surge in oil and gas prices to the lessons learned from post-COVID inflation, Wunsch explains why central banks may have “got it wrong” during the Russia-Ukraine energy shock, and how they're rethinking their response to supply shocks. Michael and Pierre dive into: The costs of net zero, and why a one-size fits all approach to decarbonisation isn't working. Whether European economies can absorb the costs transition without losing competitiveness Why “transitory inflation” didn't stay transitory during the Russia-Ukraine war The risk of political backlash and policy instability Why industry, not households, is the hardest part of decarbonisation for Europe The gap between climate ambition and credible policy tools.

Der grösste Uhren-Konzern der Schweiz, die Swatch-Gruppe, hat einen Gewinneinbruch erlitten. Warum gibt sich der Chef trotzdem optimistisch? Was steckt hinter der Kritik an der Nationalbank? Und, wie reagiert er als Industrieller auf die aktuellen Kriege? Kritische Fragen an Swatch-Chef, Nick Hayek. Der Reingewinn der Swatch-Gruppe ist im letzten Jahr um fast 90 Prozent zurück gegangen, nach einem bereits schlechten Jahr 2024. Wie schon vor einem Jahr gibt sich der Chef der Swatch-Gruppe, Nick Hayek trotzdem optimistisch fürs laufende Jahr. Woher schöpft er seine Zuversicht? Alles andere als zufrieden ist Nick Hayek gleichzeitig mit der Schweizerischen Nationalbank. Diese unternehme viel zu wenig gegen den starken Franken, der die Exportindustrie stark belaste, meint er. Macht es sich der Swatch-Chef nicht ein bisschen zu einfach? Wie erklärt er sich, dass andere Industriebetriebe die Situation aktuell eher gelassen nehmen? Trotz sinkenden Margen und schlechter Auslastung der Produktionsstätten, will die Swatch-Gruppe keine Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter entlassen. Wie lange noch? Und, was sagt der Chef zur Kritik von Beobachterinnen und Beobachtern, dass die Swatch-Gruppe ihr Potential nicht ausschöpfe und er sein Unternehmen wie ein Monarch führe? Welche Zukunft hat die Schweizer Uhrenindustrie und wo? Nick Hayek hat in den letzten Monaten nicht gespart mit Kritik am Verhalten der Schweizer Position gegenüber der US-Zollpolitik. Aber wären Gegenzölle auf Gold zum Beispiel tatsächlich zielführend im Verhältnis zu den USA? Wie hat's der scharfe Kritiker eines Rahmenabkommens angesichts der unsichereren Weltlage heute mit der EU? Und, wie blickt er auf den Krieg im Nahen Osten, wo Schweizer Uhren insbesondere in den reichen Golfstaaten bisher zahlreiche Kunden gefunden haben? Nick Hayek, der Chef der Swatch-Gruppe, nimmt Stellung in der Samstagsrundschau bei Klaus Ammann.

Ukraine has lost close to a quarter of its civilian workforce since the invasion. Three and a half million workers left government-controlled areas: mobilised into the armed forces, displaced inside the country, gone abroad as refugees, or killed. Giacomo Anastasia, Tito Boeri, and Oleksandr Zholud draw on an unprecedented wartime dataset to document how Ukraine's labour market adapted under that pressure. What they find is not what you might expect. Aggregate matching efficiency fell by only about 15%; less than the decline recorded in the United States during the 2008 financial crisis. Firms hired women into roles previously closed to them by law, took on older workers and people with disabilities, and expanded remote work to keep displaced employees and refugees connected to Ukrainian payrolls. The collapse was real, but concentrated: in contested territories near the frontline, employment fell to less than half its pre-war level and vacancy postings dropped to virtually zero. The question the paper poses for reconstruction is how to sustain that resilience, absorb close to a million returning soldiers, and begin to reverse what five years of disrupted schooling has done to a generation.The research behind this episode:Anastasia, Giacomo M., Tito Boeri, and Oleksandr Zholud. 2026. "A Wartime Labor Market: The Case of Ukraine." Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues, special issue: "What's Next for Ukraine?"To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim. 2026. "What's Next for Ukraine: A Wartime Labour Market." Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues (podcast).Assign this as extra listening. The citation above is formatted and ready for a reading list or VLE.About the guestsGiacomo Anastasia is a PhD student in Economics at Columbia University and Columbia Business School. His research interests include public economics, labour economics, and industrial organisation.Tito Boeri is Professor of Economics at Bocconi University and one of Europe's leading authorities on labour markets, unemployment insurance, and welfare state reform. He served as President of INPS, Italy's national social security institution, from 2015 to 2019.Oleksandr Zholud is a researcher at the National Bank of Ukraine. He was central to maintaining the economic data systems that continued to function through the war, and which made the empirical work in this paper possible. Research cited in this episodeThe civilian labour force contraction is estimated at roughly twenty to twenty-five per cent of the pre-war workforce in government-controlled areas, equivalent to a loss of around 3.5 million workers. The calculation combines refugees abroad (between six and seven million, of whom approximately seventy per cent are of working age), military mobilisation (at least 800,000 since 2022, up from 250,000 before the war), and combat casualties. The authors note that a shock of this scale has almost no modern precedent; the closest comparisons are Serbia's losses in the First World War and the economic disruption caused by the 1994 Rwandan genocide.Work.ua is the largest online job-search platform in Ukraine, covering around 125,000 firms and 4.5 million workers. The paper draws on weekly data from Work.ua on vacancy postings, job-seeker resumes, and offered and expected wages to track labour market dynamics across sectors and regions throughout the war. This platform data continued to be updated through the conflict and provided the primary source for the paper's matching analysis, replacing the State Statistics Service household survey, which suspended publication after the invasion.The InfoSapiens household survey, commissioned by the National Bank of Ukraine since 2021, serves as the wartime replacement for the State Statistics Service quarterly Labour Force Survey. It interviews around 1,000 individuals per quarter on employment, unemployment, and labour force participation, stratified by gender, age, region, and settlement size. Despite its smaller sample, it remains the primary regular survey-based source on Ukraine's labour market since the full-scale invasion.The State Employment Service (SES) firm survey, conducted in January 2025 in cooperation with Helvetas Swiss Intercooperation, covered 55,000 enterprises employing 4.2 million workers plus 70,000 registered unemployed persons. This cross-sectional survey provided the paper's evidence on how recruitment practices, remote work adoption, and workforce composition changed after the invasion; it is described in the paper as one of the largest wartime enterprise surveys of its kind.Air raid alarm data are used as the paper's proxy for regional exposure to the war. When missiles or drone attacks are detected, sirens activate across affected areas; the authors use the frequency and duration of these alarms to classify Ukrainian regions on a spectrum from low-exposure (western oblasts such as Lviv) to high-exposure (eastern regions such as Kharkiv) to contested (partially or fully occupied territories including parts of Donetsk and Luhansk). This classification is the basis for the paper's finding that war intensity is the primary driver of differences in labour market outcomes across regions.Matching efficiency is a standard labour economics measure of how effectively the market converts a given stock of unemployed workers and open vacancies into new hires. A fall in matching efficiency means that jobs and workers exist but find each other more slowly. The paper estimates that Ukraine's aggregate matching efficiency declined by about fifteen per cent after the invasion; a smaller fall than the more than twenty per cent recorded in the United States during the 2008 financial crisis, though with severe deterioration concentrated in frontline and contested regions, where matching efficiency dropped by close to twenty-five per cent.Remote work as a retention mechanism. A survey of Ukrainian refugees abroad found that roughly forty per cent of those in employment were working for Ukrainian firms remotely. Those maintaining an employment link to a Ukrainian company reported a significantly higher intention to return to Ukraine after the war compared with refugees employed by foreign firms. Anastasia argues this makes remote work not only an economic adaptation but a tool for sustaining the connection between displaced workers and the country they may one day return to rebuild.More in the "What's Next for Ukraine?" seriesThis episode is the third and final in a series based on papers presented at the inaugural Economic Policy winter conference, Paris, December 2025.Episode 1, with Yuriy Gorodnichenko and Maurice Obstfeld: why $40 billion a year in investment is more achievable than it sounds, why deep debt restructuring is a prerequisite for attracting private capital, and what the Euroclear frozen assets could unlock. Episode 2, with Edward Glaeser, Martina Kirchberger, and Andrii Parkhomenko: why the right model for rebuilding Ukraine's cities is postwar Tokyo rather than postwar Berlin or Warsaw, and why directing reconstruction spending towards the most damaged regions would be rebuilding in the wrong direction. Related reading on VoxEUThe labour market in Ukraine: Rebuild better, the companion VoxEU column by Anastasia, Boeri, and Zholud, summarising the paper's findings on matching efficiency, firm adjustment, and the policy priorities for reconstruction. You only live twice: A growth strategy for Ukraine, Gorodnichenko and Obstfeld's companion column to Episode 1, making the case for $40 billion a year in investment and explaining why EU and NATO accession momentum is the key enabling condition.Rebuilding cities in Ukraine, a VoxEU column on the spatial and urban decisions that will shape how Ukraine's cities develop in the decades after the war, and why the Tokyo model of decentralised land readjustment is the right precedent.

Interview with Richard Young, President & CEO of i-80 Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-tsxiau-from-50k-to-600k-oz-annually-in-nevada-miners-six-year-transformation-8964Recording date: 13th February 2026i-80 Gold has completed a $500 million non-dilutive financing package that eliminates a longstanding capital structure overhang and provides the certainty required to advance its three-phase Nevada development plan. The transaction, expected to close by the end of Q1 2026, positions the company to execute across multiple underground mining projects without shareholder dilution.The financing comprises two equal $250 million tranches. Franco-Nevada contributed the first portion through a royalty structure beginning at 1.5% across the portfolio through 2030, escalating to 3% from 2031 onward as production scales. The second tranche consists of a prepaid facility with National Bank and Macquarie Bank, with i-80 Gold pre-selling approximately 40,000 ounces at a net realized price of $3,750 per ounce over a 30-month delivery period.CEO Richard Young emphasized the competitive dynamics that shaped favorable terms, noting the company received five term sheets and three committed offers. This competition proved crucial for securing covenant flexibility rather than pricing optimization, including provisions for working capital facilities and operational adaptability during the production ramp.The financing enables immediate strategic priorities across the portfolio. Granite Creek Underground, currently the company's sole operating mine, processes ore through third-party toll milling that costs $1,000-1,500 per ounce in margin leakage. The Lone Tree autoclave refurbishment, targeted for completion by end of 2027, will eliminate this dependency and capture those margins internally as the second underground mine ramps production through 2026.Most significantly, the package accelerates Mineral Point, the flagship asset and largest resource base. Management allocated $50 million specifically for 2026 resource expansion, pre-feasibility engineering, and initial permitting—work previously deferred pending financing certainty. Young stated that Mineral Point represents the company's most valuable asset, making earlier production timing critical for shareholder value.At current gold prices above $5,000 per ounce, management projects full funding across all three development phases without equity issuance, with potential incremental debt limited to a lower-cost revolving facility. Key 2026-2027 milestones include feasibility studies for Granite Creek and Cove, Archimedes Phase 4 results, and Mineral Point pre-feasibility work.View i-80 Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Die Nationalbank handelt unabhängig von der Politik. Doch Daniel Lampart, Chefökonom des Gewerkschaftsbunds und langjähriger Bankenrat der SNB, sorgt sich, dass der starke Franken immer mehr Arbeitsplätze in der Schweiz vernichtet. Er fordert deshalb von der SNB Gegensteuer und eine klare Haltung. Die Arbeitslosigkeit zieht seit letztem Jahr wieder an. Was macht der Schweizer Wirtschaft am meisten zu schaffen? Die US-Zölle? Die angekündigten Schweizer Investitionen im Ausland? Die Wirtschaftslage in Europa? Der starke Franken? «Wo sind die Investitionsversprechen für die Schweiz?», fragt der Chefökonom des Gewerkschaftsbunds Daniel Lampart mit Blick auf die Milliarden, welche Schweizer Unternehmen in den USA, aber auch in Indien investieren wollen. Wie schaut der Gewerkschaftsbund in die Zukunft? Daniel Lampart ist zu Gast im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.

Our podcast show this week consists of a webinar we produced on November 10, 2025, titled, "Breaking Developments in National Bank Act Preemption." Join our panel of top legal experts as they break down how landmark court rulings are changing the rules for national banks, examine the growing application of state law, and discuss what these changes mean for compliance, risk, and the future of consumer financial services. Meet the Panelists: ·                 Alan Kaplinsky (Host & Moderator): Senior Counsel and former Practice Group Leader and Founder of the Consumer Financial Services Group at Ballard Spahr ·                 Professor Arthur Wilmarth: Professor Emeritus at George Washington University Law School, widely recognized for his scholarship on National Bank Act preemption. ·                 John Culhane, Jr.: Senior Counsel of the Consumer Financial Services Group at Ballard Spahr specializing in national bank compliance and regulatory strategy. ·                 Ronald Vaske: Senior Counsel of the Consumer Financial Services Group at Ballard Spahr advising financial institutions on regulatory and compliance matters. ·                 Joseph Schuster: Partner of the Consumer Financial Services Group at Ballard Spahr guiding national banks on state law adaptation and implementation. Key Points Covered: ·                 Landmark Court Decisions: Recent cases like Cantero in the Supreme Court and Conti in the First Circuit Court of Appeals have moved National Bank Act preemption away from blanket coverage, requiring courts to carefully assess each state law's impact on national banks. ·                 Dodd-Frank's Transformative Impact: The Dodd-Frank Act codified the legal standard established by the Supreme Court in the Barnett Bank Case that state laws are only preempted if they "prevent or significantly interfere" with national bank authority, and curtailed the OCC's sweeping preemption powers. ·                 Erosion of Uniform Federal Standards: National banks now face the reality of complying with an increasing patchwork of state laws, which challenges the traditional advantage of a federal charter. ·                 Compliance Strategies in Practice: Banks are proactively reviewing and updating their products, disclosures, and processes to ensure compliance with varying state requirements using robust legislative tracking methods. ·                 What's Next - Regulatory and Litigation Outlook: The panel anticipates ongoing legal and regulatory developments and urges institutions to prepare for further changes by starting comprehensive compliance reviews now. This episode delivers vital updates and practical guidance on the evolving landscape of national bank preemption, making it essential listening for anyone involved in consumer financial services, banking compliance, or regulatory strategy.  Consumer Finance Monitor is hosted by Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel at Ballard Spahr, and the founder and former chair of the firm's Consumer Financial Services Group. We encourage listeners to subscribe to the podcast on their preferred platform for weekly insights into developments in the consumer finance industry.

Canada's banking system is dominated by just six major institutions (the Big Five plus National Bank), which control over 80% of banking assets. While this concentration was designed for stability, it creates limited competition and flexibility compared to the U.S., which has thousands of banks with diverse underwriting philosophies. Illusion of choice: Canadians feel like they have banking options, but are essentially rotating through six institutions that behave similarly in terms of rates, underwriting, and credit requirements. Designed for stability, not competition: Canada's concentrated banking system was intentionally created post-Depression to prioritize safety over flexibility, which helped avoid failures during the 2008 crisis but limits competition. Different bank personalities: Each of the Big Six has distinct lending approaches—RBC prefers "vanilla" borrowers, TD is systems-driven, Scotia is unpredictable, BMO is business-friendly, CIBC is mortgage-aggressive, and National Bank is regionally focused.
