Casi toda Europa está este martes en Ucrania para arropar al presidente Zelenski en el cuarto aniversario de la guerra. Al igual que en 2025, EEUU tampoco ha enviado a ningún representante. La larga lista de dignatarios europeos que han acudido a Kiev es un reflejo de la situación que vive el país cuando se adentra en el quinto año de guerra contando con todo el apoyo del que sea capaz Europa. Las matriculaciones en la UE caen un 3,9% en enero en comparación con el mismo mes del año anterior, por debajo de las 800.000 unidades. Lo que marca un segundo comienzo de año difícil consecutivo para el mercado, según los datos divulgados este martes por la Asociación Europea de Fabricantes de Automóviles. El banco británico Standard Chartered cerró 2025 con un beneficio neto atribuido de 4.307 millones de euros, un 25,5% más que el año anterior y anuncia un programa de recompra de acciones de 1.270 millones. Entrevistaremos a Jesús Díaz Barrientos para que nos hable de su último libro "Expansión empresarial: cómo crecer con sentido". Y los temas de la actualidad, a debate en la Tertulia de Cierre de Mercados con Antonio Alvarez-Ossorio, del despacho de abogados Alvarez-Ossorio Miller, y Javier Rodríguez, de AERI.

„Danke, Donald Trump!“ Wer hätte gedacht, dass eine Folge von FINANCE TV einmal mit diesen Worten starten könnte. Doch: Die unberechenbare Zollpolitik des US-Präsidenten dürfte das gerade vereinbarte Freihandelsabkommen zwischen der EU und Indien massiv beschleunigt haben – und damit die wachsende Bedeutung des Subkontinents für deutsche Unternehmen.Für Sonia Wentzel, die bei der britischen Standard Chartered das deutschsprachige Firmenkundengeschäft leitet, kommt die Entwicklung nicht überraschend. Mehr als 2.000 deutsche Unternehmen sind in Indien bereits aktiv, 79 Prozent planen laut einer Handelskammer-Auswertung Investitionen bis 2030. Das Abkommen sei dabei gewissermaßen „das i-Tüpfelchen, die Ziellinie“, betont Wentzel.Ihr Rat an CFOs, die den Sprung nach Indien wagen: Erstens sollten sie klar definieren, was sie erreichen wollen und in welchem Zeitrahmen. Zweitens müsse man das Land verstehen, betont Wentzel. Und drittens sei die Wahl der richtigen Partner entscheidend: „Nutzen Sie Häuser, die den Markt schon lange kennen.“ Mehr zu den Chancen und Herausforderungen, die sich deutschen Unternehmen in Indien bieten, berichtet Sonia Wentzel im Gespräch bei FINANCE TV.

About Rajender PrasadRajender Prasad is the founder and managing director of Money Maestro, a UAE-based mortgage advisory firm transforming how people approach home finance. With over 25 years in banking and finance, including two decades in the UAE, Raj built his career with leading institutions such as ABN AMRO, Standard Chartered, Mashreq, and NBAD before launching his own venture in 2020.Frustrated by the limitations of traditional banking and driven by a desire to prioritize clients' interests over products, Raj created Money Maestro to simplify the mortgage journey with clarity, transparency, and education at its core. His firm has since achieved a 100% client satisfaction rate, an impressive milestone in the financial services sector.About this EpisodeIn this insightful conversation, Raj shares his journey from corporate banking to entrepreneurship, revealing how his two decades in the industry shaped his vision for a more transparent and client-first approach to mortgage advisory.He reflects on the digital transformation reshaping the UAE's financial landscape—where 70% of business now happens online—and how technology has made property investment more accessible than ever, even for non-residents.Raj explains why he founded Money Maestro: to offer clients comparative access to all major banks rather than being limited to one institution's products. By acting as a financial partner instead of a salesperson, his team empowers buyers to make informed choices—understanding every rate, term, and hidden cost before signing.Throughout the episode, Raj reframes mortgages as a financial planning tool, not just a loan—a way to build long-term equity and financial stability instead of simply paying rent. He breaks down common misconceptions, from who qualifies for a mortgage to why property ownership in the UAE isn't just for the wealthy or citizens.Quotes3:18 - Things are moving in different levels now.

ISO 20022 isn't just a messaging standard. It's a catalyst for unlocking value across the payments ecosystem. In this episode, we zoom in on the practical realities of migration.  Nicolas Stuckens (Swift), Girish Raju, and Danielle Sharpe (Standard Chartered) explore what migration involves and when to approach it, outlining key timelines and resource considerations while examining the common challenges banks face. We also look at how banks are adapting to the transition and highlight tools and strategies that can help institutions navigate the journey more smoothly.

Episode overview: April Long spent two years fighting reality. The co-founder and CEO of "Afro-Asia Cross-border payment infrastructure" startup Pyxis was so determined to serve Africa's small merchants - the "bottom of the pyramid" she'd read about in Harvard Business Review - that she nearly bankrupted her fintech ignoring the bulk traders actually driving Africa-China trade. In conversation with Andile Masuku, Long delivers uncomfortable truths about impact theatre versus impact reality. Her journey from receiving President Xi Jinping in Tanzania at 23 to finally accepting who actually moves goods between Africa and China at 35 offers a masterclass in entrepreneurial humility. Key insights: -On impact delusions: "I used to defend, I was like, 'No, no, no, no, no. It's that you don't get to this market.'" Long admits she lived in a bubble, desperately wanting to believe SMEs were ready for direct China trade. The truth? "90% of African trade is still happening in a more traditional way" - through the aggregators she'd dismissed as insufficiently mission-driven. - On the cost of stubbornness: Despite zero demand after six months embedded in Nairobi's wholesale markets, Long refused to pivot. "I was quite stubborn. I was like, no, we have to work with SMEs." The result: burning 90% of her time on unprofitable small traders whilst the 10% spent on bulk traders kept her company alive. - On acceptance as strategy: "The future is not here yet. And we need to build the future by serving who is there currently." Long's breakthrough came from accepting that Chinese trading companies scaling from $0 to IPO in a decade were the real infrastructure of Africa-China trade - not the romantic vision of empowered individual merchants. - On being un-fundable forcing clarity: Without millions to burn on market education, Long had to face reality faster than her funded competitors. "I'm grateful I didn't have money to burn, or else I could have burned myself." Notable moments: 1. The marketplace wake-up call: Walking through Nairobi's famous Gikomba market as a Chinese woman, traders shouted "China, China, what are you selling?" They wanted products, not payment rails. Long built the wrong solution for the right market. 2. The Eric Simanis paradox: The same Harvard Business Review article that inspired her Africa move warned against oversimplifying "bottom of pyramid" markets. Long spent years learning what she'd initially misread. 3. The three Aprils: Long describes fragmenting into Chinese April, Western April, and African April - "these narratives are so vastly different" that keeping them separate became exhausting. Building Pyxis became about reconciling these selves. The aggregator revelation: Long's former Standard Chartered clients - the Chinese trading companies she'd tried to convince to take loans in 2015 - transformed from traders to manufacturers to near-IPO giants in under a decade. They were the real story of Africa-China trade, moving containers whilst she chased individual merchants moving parcels. "These Chinese trading companies making impacts in Africa, making products super affordable... because of the storytelling, they are not recognised." Her role shifted from trying to bypass them to helping them operate more efficiently. The present tense: Long's current focus on settlement infrastructure for bulk traders isn't the sexy SME empowerment story she'd imagined. But with a 12-person team across four countries and actual revenue, she's building what the market needs today whilst preparing for the SME future she still believes will come. Image credit: Pxyis
