Global financial giant UBS has downgraded U.S. stocks, as markets stumble into one of their worst starts in decades. Is this a routine reset or a warning shot? Where is capital moving now? Are emerging markets the real story? And with geopolitics heating up and the Fed in play, is this a short-term wobble or the start of a structural shift in global capital? Host Tu Yun joins Warwick Powell, Adjunct Professor, Queensland University of Technology, Australia, Li Lun, Assistant Professor of Economics, Peking University, and Chen Jiahe, the Chief Investment Officer of the Beijing-based Novem Arcae Technologies for a close look.
March 11, 2026: Amazon corporate workers say the company's AI push is creating more work, not less — with surveillance dashboards tracking every click and promotion criteria now tied to AI adoption. Oracle's Larry Ellison became one of the first Fortune 500 CEOs to explicitly confirm on an earnings call that AI tools are reducing his headcount — while the company carries $100 billion in debt and negative free cash flow. A new UBS report finds 63% of U.S. entrepreneurs are planning to exit their businesses in the next five years, an exit wave nobody is connecting to AI-driven workforce disruption. And as layoffs accelerate, the unemployment insurance system — unchanged since FDR built it in 1935 — is failing to reach 75% of the workers it was designed to protect.

Mindy Diamond on Independence: A Podcast for Financial Advisors Considering Change

Watch… https://youtu.be/jqE5vfTRewc About this episode… As advisory practices grow larger and more sophisticated, the definition of success is shifting. For many advisors, it's no longer just about income or payout. It's about ownership, alignment, and building something that carries real enterprise value. That shift raises important questions, such as: What does scale actually enable? How should advisors think about capital? And what does alignment really look like between firm leadership, capital providers, and the advisors they serve? To explore that, we invited three guests who see this from unique vantage points. James Poer, who leads Kestra Holdings, John Amore, who oversees the strategy and execution behind Kestra Financial's growth, and Fayez Muhtadie, who represents Stone Point Capital, Kestra's private equity partner. Kestra today operates one of the larger independent wealth management ecosystems in the country, supporting roughly 1,450 advisors and overseeing more than $160B in assets across its broker dealer and RIA platforms. Stone Point, for its part, is a financial services-focused private equity firm with decades of experience investing in banks, asset managers, insurers, and wealth platforms. Together, they represent a scaled, privately backed model that has become increasingly common in our industry. In this episode with Louis Diamond, they unpack what they describe as “multiple ways to win” actually means inside a platform of this size, including: The Kestra ecosystem—and how the firm has evolved from its founding to spin-off from NPF. The value of private equity ownership—and how common misconceptions impact the positive potential. The importance of cultural alignment—and how it can be preserved as firms grow. Growth and scale—and why James believes this business is not an income game, but a wealth game. Plus, the questions advisors should be asking when assessing their current firm or platform. If you're evaluating scale, ownership, or long-term enterprise value in your business, this is a conversation worth hearing. Want to learn more about where, why, and how advisors like you are moving?

En el Radar Empresarial de hoy ponemos el foco en los cambios recientes que atraviesa el mercado de crédito privado, un ámbito financiero que actualmente se encuentra rodeado de incertidumbre. Con el objetivo de transmitir confianza y reducir las dudas de los inversores, varios directivos de Blackstone han decidido incrementar su exposición al fondo Private Credit Fund, abriendo nuevas posiciones en sus carteras personales. Esta iniciativa se produce apenas un día después de que el vehículo de inversión registrara pérdidas cercanas a los 1.700 millones de dólares, un golpe que ha intensificado las preocupaciones dentro del sector y ha despertado preguntas sobre la estabilidad de este tipo de activos en el actual entorno económico. Durante el primer trimestre del año, los inversores solicitaron retirar el 7,9% de sus participaciones en el fondo, un porcentaje claramente superior a la media histórica cercana al 5%. Esta presión de reembolsos obligó a la gestora a desembolsar alrededor de 3.200 millones de dólares para atender dichas solicitudes. Cuando se comunicaron las pérdidas, la firma también explicó que sus propios empleados habían invertido aproximadamente 400 millones de dólares con el fin de contribuir a cubrir la demanda de liquidez. En ese mismo periodo, Blackstone logró compromisos de capital por unos 2.000 millones, aunque las retiradas acumuladas ya alcanzan los 3.700 millones, lo que refleja el clima de cautela que domina entre los inversores. El fondo Bcred ha sido una pieza clave en la expansión de la compañía en los últimos años. Sin embargo, pese al tono optimista mostrado por su presidente, Jon Gray, la cotización de la empresa ha experimentado descensos recientes. Este comportamiento no es aislado, ya que otras firmas relevantes del mismo sector también han visto caer el valor de sus acciones. Entre ellas destacan Blue Owl Capital, Apollo Global y KKR, cuyos títulos acumulan retrocesos superiores al 15% en lo que va de año. En particular, Apollo ha registrado una caída cercana al 28%, lo que evidencia la presión que afronta toda la industria del crédito privado. Este segmento financiero gestiona actualmente activos por valor aproximado de tres billones de dólares, lo que explica por qué está bajo un intenso escrutinio. Algunos analistas, como los de UBS, estiman que la tasa de impagos podría alcanzar el 15% durante este año, una previsión que el director ejecutivo de Ares Management, Mike Arougheti, calificó de exagerada e irresponsable. Parte de la preocupación se origina en el sector tecnológico: muchas firmas de crédito financiaron compañías de software durante años debido a su fuerte crecimiento y a sus ingresos recurrentes. Sin embargo, la irrupción de la inteligencia artificial y herramientas como Claude Cowork ha puesto en duda ese modelo, generando lo que algunos denominan “cucarachas negras”, un concepto popularizado por Jamie Dimon para describir problemas financieros ocultos que pueden aparecer tras los primeros signos de debilidad.
Schweden galt lange als der Prototyp des sozialistischen «Volksheim». Dann geriet das Land Anfang der 1990er-Jahren in eine schwere Krise. Und prompt schafften die Schweden einen radikalen Kurswechsel: Privatisierungen, Liberalisierungen und tiefgreifende Reformen folgten. Heute steht Schweden für eine niedrige Verschuldung, eine ausgeprägte Aktienkultur und zahlreiche Börsengänge. Wettbewerbliche Lösungen finden sich selbst im Bildungs- und Rentensystem. Gleichzeitig kämpft das Land mit Integrationsproblemen, hoher Arbeitslosigkeit unter Migranten und zunehmender Kriminalität. Was kann die Schweiz von der schwedischen Reformbereitschaft lernen? Und wie viel Druck braucht es, bis Strukturreformen wirklich angegangen werden? Darüber sprechen Michael Grampp (Deloitte), Jürg Müller (Avenir Suisse) und Peter A. Fischer (NZZ) im Podcast «Eco on the Rocks». Wirtschaft muss nicht trocken sein. Im Podcast «Eco on the Rocks» diskutieren Ökonominnen und Ökonomen aus der Schweiz über relevante Wirtschaftsthemen.

This Day in Legal History: Bruno Hauptmann ConvictedOn February 13, 1935, a New Jersey jury convicted Bruno Hauptmann of kidnapping and murdering the infant son of famed aviator Charles Lindbergh. The crime had transfixed the nation for nearly three years and was widely labeled the “Crime of the Century.” The child was taken from the Lindbergh home in 1932, and despite a ransom payment, was later found dead. Public outrage was immediate and intense, with newspapers covering nearly every development in the investigation and trial.Hauptmann's prosecution relied heavily on circumstantial evidence, including ransom notes and expert testimony linking his handwriting to those notes. The government also introduced evidence tying marked ransom bills to Hauptmann's possession. The trial raised early concerns about the reliability of forensic handwriting analysis and the influence of media attention on jury impartiality. Critics then and now have questioned whether the intense publicity compromised due process protections.The case also reshaped federal criminal law. In response to the kidnapping, Congress enacted the Lindbergh Law, formally known as the Federal Kidnapping Act. The statute made it a federal offense to transport a kidnapping victim across state lines, expanding federal jurisdiction over what had traditionally been a state crime. That shift reflected a broader trend during the early twentieth century toward increased federal involvement in criminal enforcement.Today, the Hauptmann conviction remains a staple in criminal law courses, not only for its tragic facts but also for its lasting procedural and constitutional implications.Goldman Sachs' chief legal officer, Kathy Ruemmler, resigned after newly released Justice Department documents detailed her past communications with Jeffrey Epstein. CEO David Solomon announced that he accepted her resignation, which will take effect on June 30. Ruemmler said the media attention surrounding her prior legal work had become a distraction. The disclosures showed she exchanged numerous emails with Epstein between 2014 and 2019 and received gifts from him, including luxury items. Some emails revealed that she advised Epstein on how to respond to press inquiries about his treatment by prosecutors.The documents also noted that Epstein attempted to contact her by phone on the night of his 2019 arrest on sex trafficking charges. Ruemmler stated that she knew Epstein only in her capacity as a defense attorney and denied any knowledge of ongoing criminal conduct. Before joining Goldman, she led the white-collar defense practice at Latham & Watkins and previously served as White House counsel during the Obama administration.The broader document release has drawn attention to Epstein's connections within major financial institutions, including UBS and JPMorgan. Ruemmler's departure marks one of the most prominent banking exits linked to the renewed scrutiny of Epstein's network.Top Goldman Sachs lawyer Ruemmler resigns after Epstein disclosures | ReutersA federal judge in Minnesota ruled that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement improperly interfered with detainees' access to their attorneys during a recent enforcement operation. U.S. District Judge Nancy Brasel found that ICE's practices during “Operation Metro Surge” effectively denied thousands of people meaningful legal access. The order requires ICE to stop quickly transferring detainees out of Minnesota and to permit attorney visits and confidential phone calls. The ruling will remain in effect for 14 days while the case proceeds.The class action lawsuit was filed on January 27 on behalf of noncitizen detainees. According to the court, many individuals were moved out of state without notice, making it difficult or impossible for lawyers to locate them. In some instances, detainees were transferred so often that ICE itself lost track of their whereabouts. Judge Brasel concluded that while ICE did not formally deny the right to counsel, its actions in practice severely limited that right.The court also cited evidence that detainees were given limited phone access, sometimes sharing a small number of phones among dozens of people, with calls occurring in nonprivate settings. One asylum seeker with a valid work permit was held for 18 days despite a court order requiring his earlier release and was transferred across multiple states without explanation. The judge rejected ICE's claim that it lacked sufficient resources, noting that the agency had committed substantial personnel and funding to the enforcement effort.ICE blocked detainees' access to lawyers in Minnesota, judge finds | ReutersPresident Donald Trump announced four new judicial nominations, including a White House attorney selected for a seat on the U.S. Court of International Trade. The nominee, Kara Westercamp, currently serves as associate counsel in the White House and previously worked at the Justice Department. If confirmed, she would join a nine-member court that handles disputes involving U.S. trade laws, including challenges to tariffs. Her nomination comes as numerous companies contest Trump's sweeping global tariffs and seek refunds on duties already paid.Retailers and manufacturers such as Costco, Goodyear, and Revlon have filed lawsuits arguing that the tariffs exceed presidential authority. Earlier rulings from the trade court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit blocked most of the tariffs, and the U.S. Supreme Court is now reviewing the matter. Trump has publicly criticized the earlier decisions.In addition to Westercamp, Trump nominated Katie Lane to a federal district court in Montana, Sheria Clarke to a district court seat in South Carolina, and federal prosecutor Evan Rikhye to a 10-year term on the District Court of the Virgin Islands. All nominees must be confirmed by the Senate.Trump nominates White House lawyer to court hearing tariff cases | ReutersFormer CNN anchor Don Lemon is scheduled to appear in federal court in Minnesota to enter a plea related to charges stemming from his coverage of a protest at a St. Paul church. The protest targeted President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement surge in the state. Lemon, now an independent journalist, livestreamed the January 18 demonstration, which disrupted a worship service at Cities Church.Federal prosecutors charged him with conspiring to violate civil rights and with obstructing access to a house of worship under a statute also used in cases involving abortion clinic protests. His attorney argues that the prosecution infringes on Lemon's First Amendment rights and characterizes the case as an attack on press freedom. Trump publicly supported the charges, while Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that authorities would protect the right to worship without interference.The protest occurred during broader demonstrations against federal immigration actions in Minnesota, where thousands had gathered to oppose the crackdown. Lemon was seen on video speaking with activists before and during the disruption and interviewing participants and congregants inside the church. Another journalist, Georgia Fort, faces similar charges and has denied wrongdoing, stating she was reporting rather than participating.Journalist Don Lemon to enter plea in Minnesota ICE protest case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Johann Sebastian Bach.Bach stands as one of the central figures of the Baroque era, revered for the structural clarity and spiritual depth of his music. Born in 1685 into a long line of musicians, Bach spent much of his career serving as a church organist and cantor in German cities such as Arnstadt, Weimar, and Leipzig. Though not widely celebrated outside musical circles during his lifetime, his reputation has since grown to near-mythic status. His compositions balance intellectual precision with emotional resonance, blending intricate counterpoint with lyrical expression.This week's closing theme is his Cello Suite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007, likely composed around 1720 during his tenure in Köthen. The suite opens with one of the most recognizable preludes in all of classical music, built from flowing arpeggios that unfold with quiet inevitability. Written for unaccompanied cello, the piece demonstrates Bach's ability to imply harmony and depth through a single melodic line. The suite follows the traditional Baroque dance structure, moving from Prelude through Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Menuets, and Gigue.For many listeners, the Prelude evokes clarity, order, and calm—qualities that make it a fitting close to the week. Its simplicity is deceptive; beneath the surface lies careful architecture and subtle harmonic movement. The work fell into relative obscurity until the twentieth century, when cellist Pablo Casals famously revived it and brought it to concert stages worldwide. Today, it remains a cornerstone of the cello repertoire and a touchstone of Baroque artistry. As a closing theme, it offers both reflection and renewal, ending not with flourish but with quiet confidence.Without further ado, Johann Sebastian Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007–enjoy!

In this forward-thinking episode, Sabine VanderLinden returns to kick off the year with a transformative discussion on “frontier firms” and the rise of agentic enterprises. As digital transformation accelerates, leaders face challenges like increasing climate risks, cyber threats, and widening protection gaps—pushing businesses (especially in regulated industries like insurance) to rethink strategies. Sabine explores how trailblazing organizations are leveraging AI not just as an assistant, but as an autonomous driver of capacity and productivity. Through practical frameworks and real-world case studies, this episode lays out the playbook for riding the next wave of innovation, resilience, and growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS This year on Scouting for Growth, I wanted to regroup and make sure my podcast continues to deliver what matters most to you in the fast-paced transformation market. After a brief pause and reflection, and evaluating the insights from the World Economic Forum, with a clear sense that the world feels increasingly uninsurable—climate risk, cyber threats, and protection gaps are all expanding. But I believe that this narrative of uninsurability is simply a choice, not a certainty. I see a new class of leaders emerging, those who aren't just trying to manage risk but who are fundamentally changing how we approach it. Transformation isn't just happening in isolated labs; it's exploding at the convergence of capital, technology, and strategy—the true frontier of business. This is where agentic enterprises are emerging, blending human leadership with AI agents, forming digital workforces where competitive advantage depends on our agility with data, not just data ownership. Examples abound: Telstra is scaling AI across thousands of employees, UBS has put AI at the heart of its business via a Chief AI Officer, Mercedes-Benz uses digital twins and multiple agent systems to optimize production, and at Nestlé, AI is transforming everything from farm to fork. These companies aren't dabbling—they're fundamentally rethinking their models and leadership. My message is simple: the agentic frontier is not some distant theory—it's here and now. The uninsurable world is a choice, and you can choose to lead in this new paradigm. The tools and models exist, and the only question left is who has the courage to execute. As you listen and engage this year, I'll keep guiding you through these themes—helping you build, not just watch, the future unfold. BEST MOMENTS "The uninsurable world is a choice, not a certainty. While some twist their hands over these challenges, a new class of leaders is rewriting the rules of the game." "A frontier firm in the simplest terms is an organization that is human led but agent operated. This means your people set the vision and define success, while AI agents handle a significant share of the execution, working autonomously with oversight across processes." "Mastering [these levers] is the difference between watching the future happen and actively building it." "The market is sending an unequivocal message: the future of financial institutions including insurance, all regulated industry belongs to the agentic enterprise. This is not a distant vision; it is happening right now." ABOUT THE HOST Sabine VanderLinden is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur and the CEO of Alchemy Crew Ventures. She leads venture-client labs that help Fortune 500 companies adopt and scale cutting-edge technologies from global tech ventures. A builder of accelerators, investor, and co-editor of the bestseller The INSURTECH Book, Sabine is known for asking the uncomfortable questions—about AI governance, risk, and trust.

The G-10 FX narrative has mainly been dollar- and structurally driven year-to-date, while euro headlines have been sidelined. This could change into 2H as European fiscal stimulus starts to lift the region's economic narrative and validates the ECB-driven relative yield advantage into 2H. In this episode of FX Moment, Bloomberg Intelligence Chief FX Strategist Audrey Childe-Freeman and Constantin Bolz, Head of G-10 FX for UBS's Chief Investment Office, focus on the euro side of the bullish euro-dollar view and how a cautiously optimistic euro macro narrative can be consistent with a euro-dollar break of $1.20. They also present their strongest G-10 FX convictions for the year — on pro-cyclical currencies including the Aussie dollar and the Norwegian krone — and touch on expected Swiss franc and yen fortunes for 2026.

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.What would you do if your career was at stake, and your integrity was challenged by the very system you worked for? In this gripping episode of Employee Survival Guide®, Mark Carey unravels the whistleblowing legal saga of Trevor Murray, a strategist at UBS who faced a harrowing integrity dilemma in the cutthroat world of Wall Street. As the pressure mounted to alter his research reports to benefit the trading desk, Murray found himself at a crossroads, ultimately choosing whistleblowing on unethical practices that threatened not just his job, but the very fabric of corporate integrity. This episode takes you on a deep dive into the murky waters of employment law, focusing on pivotal legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Act. Over an arduous 14-year journey through various legal battles, Murray's case culminated in a landmark Supreme Court decision that redefined whistleblowing, clarifying that the intent to retaliate does not need to be proven for a case to hold water. But as we celebrate this legal victory, we must also confront the harsh realities faced by whistleblowers. Are the protections offered by the law truly effective, or do they merely exist on paper? Join us as we explore the moral and ethical challenges that arise in a hostile work environment, shedding light on critical issues like employee rights, retaliation, and workplace discrimination. Murray's story raises vital questions about the culture of silence that often pervades corporate America, and the toll that such battles can take on individuals' lives and careers. Through this lens, we examine the broader implications of employment law issues, from severance negotiations to performance improvement plans, and the importance of employee advocacy in navigating workplace dynamics. Whether you're an employee grappling with a toxic work culture, a manager striving for a healthier workplace, or someone interested in the intricacies of employment law, this episode is packed with insights and practical advice. Tune in to gain an understanding of your rights at work, learn how to effectively negotiate employment contracts, and discover strategies for surviving and thriving in the challenging landscape of modern employment. Don't miss this opportunity to empower yourself with the knowledge you need to navigate your career with confidence and integrity.

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.What happens when a financial villain becomes a plaintiff in a landmark legal battle? Join Mark Carey in this riveting episode of the Employee Survival Guide® as we dissect the extraordinary journey of Tom Hayes, the former trader at the center of the LIBOR scandal. After being convicted and then having his conviction quashed, Hayes has turned the tables, suing his former employer, UBS, for a staggering $400 million for malicious prosecution. This isn't just a story about money; it's about justice, employee rights, and the complexities of navigating a hostile work environment. As we delve into the dramatic twists of this malicious prosecution case, we explore the multifaceted implications of Hayes' autism spectrum disorder on his actions and decision-making processes. How does this impact his narrative and the way the world perceives him? In a corporate landscape often riddled with discrimination and retaliation, Hayes' story serves as a powerful reminder of the challenges employees face when standing up against powerful employers. The contrasting narratives presented by Hayes and UBS raise critical questions about corporate accountability, the ethics of employee treatment, and the ever-present issues of discrimination in the workplace. Throughout the episode, we dissect the legal documents that frame this high-stakes malicious prosecution case, shedding light on the intricacies of employment law and the potential ramifications for the financial industry. What does this mean for employees navigating their own work disputes? How can understanding such cases empower workers to negotiate better severance packages or combat workplace harassment? The insights shared here are not just for those embroiled in legal battles; they resonate with anyone seeking to understand their rights and responsibilities in the workplace. As we wrap up this compelling narrative, we reflect on the broader implications of Hayes' malicious prosecution case for corporate governance and employee survival strategies.

Mindy Diamond on Independence: A Podcast for Financial Advisors Considering Change
With Tim Krueger, Co-Founder and Partner at Krueger, Fosdyck, Brown, McCall & Associates – New Edge Advisors, LLC Overview For many advisors, the real question isn't how big the business becomes—but what happens next. This episode explores how Tim Krueger and his $1.4B Merrill team rethought succession, liquidity, and legacy to create long-term continuity. Watch… Listen in… > Download a transcript of this episode… NOTE: The views and opinions expressed by the guests on this podcast are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of Diamond Consultants. Neither Diamond Consultants nor the guests on this podcast are compensated in any way for their participation. About this episode… For many advisors, success is defined by growth: more clients, more assets, more revenue. But at some point, the question shifts from, “How big can we build this?” to “What happens next?” After nearly two decades at Merrill, Tim Krueger and his partners had built a $1.4B practice and one of the most successful teams in their market. By any traditional measure, the internal sunset path would have been the simplest option. But simplicity wasn't the goal. Protecting clients, creating opportunities for the next generation, and preserving the culture they had built mattered more. That led Tim and his partners to make a very different decision: to break away from the wirehouse, sell out of that environment entirely, and align with NewEdge Advisors in a way that solved for succession, liquidity, and long-term continuity—simultaneously. In this conversation with Louis Diamond, Tim shares how focusing on other people's needs – clients, teammates, and future leaders – became the ultimate growth strategy. Plus, they discuss: Lessons learned over nearly two decades at Merrill—and how structure, team building, and next gen cultivation become paramount. Stepping away from Merrill's CTP retire-in-place program—and what other business owners shared with him that inspired the decision to leave the wirehouse. Opting to align with NewEdge Advisors—and how liquidity and continuity were key factors. “Shrinking to grow”—and why it isn't just a portfolio philosophy, but a business one. Monetizing the business—and how the process can be a new beginning for the business, not an end for the business owners. Building a true runway for G2 and G3—and how it can create a rare win-win-win for founders, teams, and clients alike.
