In this bonus episode Nick talks to Jeff Chatfield. Jeff serves as the Executive Chairman of Avation PLC and played a pivotal role in its founding and development. Throughout his career, he has held management and directorial positions in various companies across sectors such as the airline industry, data distribution, electronics, investment, broadcasting, and manufacturing. He holds both a Bachelor of Engineering and a Master of Engineering Science from the University of Western Australia. Additionally, he is a graduate member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and a Fellow of the Singapore Institute of Directors. Nick and Jeff discus the company's recent half-year results and market position. Jeff highlights Avation's strong financial performance, including increased revenue and reduced net debt. He also discusses the company's aircraft leasing portfolio, noting a recent acquisition of an Etihad-operated Airbus A320. Despite these positive results, Avation's share price remains undervalued at 50% of net asset value (NAV), which Jeff attributes to investor unfamiliarity with the aircraft leasing sector and the company's London Stock Exchange listing. He suggests that moving to a higher-tier market segment could help attract more investors.The conversation also touches on Avation's debt structure and potential refinancing opportunities. Jeff explains that a $330 million bond maturing in 2026 could be refinanced as early as 2025, potentially lowering interest costs and improving cash flow. He emphasizes the importance of dividends to investors and notes strong shareholder support for past dividend payouts. Looking ahead, Avation aims to continue growing its fleet and improving shareholder value, with strategies such as increasing investor engagement and possibly integrating with a larger leasing business for better financing terms.

During the 2025 Budget statement, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said rapid technological advances particularly in the area of AI will transform workplaces and jobs. That means workers need to be equipped with new skills to remain competitive and relevant. On that note, SkillsFuture remains a cornerstone in our social compact. On top of this, PM Wong has announced more measures on supporting our enterprises in Workforce transformation. Besides measures introduced to supporting workers throughout life, the measures specific to businesses generally fell within three key areas: technology and innovation, our enterprise ecosystem, as well as infrastructure investments amidst resource constraints. So how is Budget 2025 giving support to workers in terms of upskilling and life long learning? And how will our growth frontier, our businesses be advanced?

Ep #57 with Eelee Lua, xcubeEelee Lua is chief of staff and a director at xcube.co – a Singapore-based corporate venture studio. A seasoned business leader in the technology space, specializing in risk mitigation and strategic partnerships. Having entered the risk and compliance field 13 years ago, having previously held roles at AsiaVerify and the RISQ Group.Eelee holds a board director accreditation from the Singapore Institute of Directors, and actively contributes to industry communities such as the Singapore FinTech Association and Women In Alliances.Recently, she penned an article entitled “Circular Financial Identity – The Missing Piece for Financial Inclusion,” which forms the basis for this episode's discussion. In this instalment of Regulatory Ramblings, Eelee talks to host Ajay Shamdasani about her piece and how financial inclusion remains a critical global issue, with approximately 1.4 billion people still lacking access to formal financial services. She also shared a little about Defy, an xcube company on a mission to address financial inclusion. Her observation that traditional financial systems often exclude marginalized populations, such as low-income individuals, women, rural communities, and refugees was what compelled her to write the article. Financial exclusion not only limits economic opportunities but also perpetuates poverty.Yet, all is not lost and Eelee believes technology may yet deliver true financial inclusion. A promising solution to bridge this gap is Circular Financial Identity (CFI), she says, “which has the potential to transform financial inclusion efforts worldwide.” The key, she says is understanding CFI because “unlike traditional digital identities that rely on static information and centralized databases, CFI employs a dynamic, decentralized, and interoperable system” – thereby enabling “under-documented individuals, including refugees, to gradually build their financial identity by capturing their digital financial footprint across various domains such as earning, spending, borrowing, saving, investing, and lending.”The circularity of data, particularly, the continuous accumulation and reuse of financial data create a comprehensive, robust, and evolving picture of their financial behaviour and capabilities, enabling access to a broader range of financial services, Eelee says.(For more details about CFI, visit: www.hkufintech.com/regulatoryramblings)Eelee also shares a little about her own background, upbringing, education and what launched her on a path to a compliance career. She also describes what xcube does as well as her own “moment of epiphany” when she realized that the world of cryptocurrencies and digital assets were something important that she needed to pay attention to in the years to come.Looking ahead, while she thinks Web3 will have a marked impact on banking Southeast Asia and the Middle East, she cautions that many of the world's financial institutions have yet to consider the interoperability and integration issues of how to use such technologies in the current world.A resolute believer in the power of targeted use of technology to aid the perennial global cause of financial inclusion and bring about a more egalitarian world with a more level playing field, the conversation concludes with her reflections on a decade plus in the risk and compliance field, and her greatest lessons, challenges and regrets in that time.HKU FinTech is the leading fintech research and education in Asia.

Top-earning Malaysians will soon be hit with higher expenses come next year, as the country's government seeks to roll back on subsidies for RON95 petrol, education and healthcare, in a bid to free up monies for other purposes. This comes as Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim unveiled Malaysia's fifth consecutive record budget of RM421 billion (S$127.8 billion) on 18th October. The budget is also boosted by a RM13.5 billion increase, largely driven by salary revision bonuses that will raise civil servant pay for the first time in over a decade. But how effective will these measures be in balancing the country's fiscal position and boosting the economy? On this episode of Morning Shot, Shannon Teoh, Malaysia Bureau Chief of The Straits Times and Dr Oh Ei Sun, Principal Adviser at the Pacific Research Center of Malaysia & Senior Fellow of the Singapore Institute of International Affairs share their insights.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for Feb 7th   Publish Date:  Feb 6th   From the Drake Realty Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

High-Speed Tragedy: Trooper and Motorcyclist Involved in Fatal Crash at Over 140 MPH Research Suggests Link Between Dementia, Air Pollution, and Sedentary Lifestyle Revolutionary Weight Loss Drug Could Also Help Manage Blood Pressure in Overweight Individuals Plus, my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sugar in cereals. All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe!

STORY 1: Fatal Crash Involving Trooper and Motorcyclist Exceeded Speeds of 140 MPH Gerson Danilo Ayala Rodriguez, a 21-year-old from Norcross, led a Georgia State Trooper on a high-speed chase exceeding 140 mph on his motorcycle on January 28, causing the trooper, Jimmy Cenescar, to lose control of his patrol car and crash, resulting in his death. Rodriguez, who lacked a driver's license and a valid license plate, has been arrested and charged with murder, vehicular homicide, and several other offenses. The Georgia Department of Public Safety worked diligently to investigate the incident. Trooper Cenescar, 28, was a recent graduate of Georgia Gwinnett College and had joined the department in January 2023. Visitation and funeral services for Cenescar will be held later this week. STORY 2: Laziness and air pollution largely to blame for dementia: study A new study suggests that dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, was extremely rare in ancient times, with modern lifestyles and environments largely to blame for its prevalence today. Analysis of ancient Greek and Roman texts reveals few mentions of cognitive decline comparable to Alzheimer's. As Roman cities grew denser, pollution increased, possibly driving up cases of cognitive decline. Additionally, Roman aristocrats' use of lead in cooking vessels and water pipes may have contributed to neurotoxicity. Modern-day Tsimane Amerindians, living a physically active lifestyle, have extremely low rates of dementia, highlighting the influence of modern environments on the condition. These findings suggest that lifestyle factors, such as sedentary behavior and pollution exposure, play a significant role in the rise of Alzheimer's disease.   STORY 3: New weight loss medication could lower blood pressure in obese adults A new weight loss medication, tirzepatide, has shown promise in lowering blood pressure in obese adults, according to a study published in the American Heart Association journal Hypertension. The medication significantly reduced systolic blood pressure, a strong predictor of cardiovascular death, in nearly 500 severely overweight adults. Tirzepatide works by mimicking metabolic hormones that regulate insulin secretion and sensitivity, leading to weight loss by reducing appetite and slowing down digestion. Participants taking tirzepatide experienced average reductions in systolic blood pressure of 7.4 mm Hg to 10.6 mm Hg, alongside significant weight loss. Lead author Professor James A. de Lemos noted the potential of tirzepatide in preventing or treating high blood pressure, but emphasized the need for further research to confirm these findings and understand long-term effects on cardiovascular health.   We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We'll be right back Break 2: TOM WAGES   STORY 4: Possible new treatment for rare disorder that causes babies to have extra fingers and toes Researchers at the University of Leeds may have discovered a treatment for a rare disorder causing extra fingers and toes, along with other birth defects, autism, and a large head circumference. The disorder currently has no treatment, but the research identified a molecule that could potentially treat neurological symptoms and prevent further deterioration. The drug is already in clinical trials for another disorder, expediting the process if found effective. Dr. James Poulter emphasized the importance of such research for patients and families facing years of uncertainty. The disorder stems from a genetic mutation in the MAX gene, identified through a study published in the American Journal of Human Genetics. Further research will explore the treatment's effectiveness and its potential to improve symptoms caused by the mutation. STORY 5: Adversity early in life can cause kid's brains to develop too fast A new study suggests that children exposed to early life adversity (ELA) undergo accelerated brain development during preschool years, potentially leading to negative health outcomes later in life. Researchers from A*STAR's Singapore Institute for Clinical Sciences studied 549 children, tracking brain development via MRI scans at ages 4.5, 6, and 7.5 years. They found that ELA is linked to accelerated brain development between ages 4.5 and 6, likely a protective response. However, this can shorten the window for adaptive learning and neuroplasticity, with implications for cognitive and mental health. Dr. Tan Ai Peng emphasized the importance of early intervention during this critical period to mitigate adverse effects. The study was published in the journal Nature Mental Health.   Break 3:  INGLES 5   STORY 6: LEAH MCGRATH And now here is my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sugar in cereals.   STORY 7: LEAH MCGRATH ***LEAH MCGRATH INERVIEW***   We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4:   Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.

The intention is to give young people a voice on national issues. Synopsis: Every second and fourth Monday of the month, The Straits Times takes a hard look at Singapore's social issues of the day with guests. The Forward Singapore exercise began in June 2022, and since then, over 14,000 Singaporeans from all walks of life have participated in about 140 engagement sessions on a wide range of topics. This is the second of four podcast discussions, and part of the ongoing conversation to refresh our social compact for the next lap of Singapore's journey.

Our guest, Andrew Penn, is a prominent researcher at the University of California-San Francisco, and he brings us up-to-date information on the clinical research happenings with psychedelic medicine. Andrew's insights on the research being conducted, the risks and benefits of psilocybin and MDMA, and his first-hand experience as a psychedelic nurse create a compelling listen for anyone interested in these powerful substances. While it is clear that psychedelics hold a great deal of potential in the treatment of depression and PTSD, it is also clear that a lot more research is needed. Be it in a lab or in practice, Andrew works to promote healing within. He leaves us with a thought that is near and dear to the heart of this program – that “the thing about psychedelic experiences is they can create this experience of reunification, that people feel like they are attached to something larger than themselves.”“We can feel connected to something bigger and more important, and, perhaps that experience of reconnection has the potential to healing.”Andrew Penn, MS, PMHNP is a Clinical Professor in the University of California, San Francisco, School of Nursing where his teaching has received the UCSF Academic Senate Distinction in Teaching Award, among other recognitions. He has practices as a psychiatric/mental health nurse practitioner, treating veterans at the San Francisco Veterans Administration Hospital. As a researcher, he collaborates on psychedelics studies of psilocybin and MDMA in the Translational Psychedelics Research (TrPR) lab at UCSF.A leading voice in nursing, he is a cofounder of the Organization of Psychedelic and Entheogenic Nurses (OPENurses.org), advocating for the perspective of nurses in psychedelic therapy. He has published on psychedelics in the American Journal of Nursing, Frontiers in Psychiatry, and The Journal of Humanistic Psychotherapy. An internationally invited speaker, he has lectured at SXSW, Aspen Health Ideas Festival, the Singapore Institute of Mental Health, and Oxford University.Thank you for reading Mind Body Health & Politics.
