VOV1 - Các hãng hàng không quốc tế đang chịu ảnh hưởng kép từ cuộc xung đột tại Trung Đông bởi giá nhiên liệu tăng mạnh. Để ứng phó, một số hãng hàng không Ấn Độ đã buộc phải áp dụng phụ phí nhiên liệu đối với nhiều chuyến bay nội địa và quốc tế. Tại Ấn Độ, các hãng hàng không thuộc tập đoàn Tata Group gồm Air India và Air India Express đã quyết định tăng phụ phí nhiên liệu trên nhiều đường bay do chi phí nhiên liệu hàng không tăng mạnh và thời gian bay kéo dài.Theo thông báo, mức phụ phí nhiên liệu sẽ được triển khai theo từng giai đoạn.Cụ thể, đối với các chuyến bay nội địa và các tuyến bay giữa Ấn Độ với các nước thuộc Hiệp hội Hợp tác Khu vực Nam Á (SAARC), hành khách sẽ phải trả thêm 399 Rupee/vé được đặt sau ngày 11/3. Trong khi đó, các chuyến bay đến và đi từ khu vực Tây Á sẽ áp dụng phụ phí 10 USD. Đối với các chuyến bay của Air India tới Đông Nam Á và châu Phi, mức phụ phí nhiên liệu hiện hành sẽ tăng 50%, lên lần lượt 60 USD và 90 USD.Trong giai đoạn hai, áp dụng cho vé đặt từ ngày 18/3, Air India sẽ tăng phụ phí đối với các chuyến bay tới châu Âu, Bắc Mỹ và Australia. Theo đó, phụ phí đối với các chuyến bay tới châu Âu sẽ tăng 25% lên 125 USD, còn các chuyến bay tới Bắc Mỹ và Australia sẽ tăng khoảng một phần ba, lên mức 200 USD.Giai đoạn ba sẽ được công bố chi tiết sau. Những vé đã đặt trước thời điểm áp dụng sẽ không bị tính phụ phí mới, trừ khi hành khách thay đổi ngày bay hoặc hành trình.Theo Air India, kể từ đầu tháng 3/2026, giá nhiên liệu máy bay - vốn chiếm gần 40% chi phí vận hành của các hãng hàng không – đã tăng đáng kể do nguồn cung toàn cầu bị gián đoạn. Tại Ấn Độ, áp lực chi phí càng gia tăng khi nhiên liệu hàng không phải chịu mức thuế tiêu thụ đặc biệt và thuế giá trị gia tăng (VAT) cao tại các thành phố lớn như Delhi và Mumbai.Ngoài ra, các chuyến bay của Air India tới châu Âu và Bắc Mỹ còn chịu ảnh hưởng từ việc Pakistan cấm các hãng hàng không và máy bay Ấn Độ sử dụng không phận nước này, khiến thời gian bay kéo dài hơn và làm gia tăng lượng nhiên liệu tiêu thụ./.Đình Nam/VOV New DelhiMáy bay chở khách của Air India (Ảnh: ANI)

The court suspended the order for 24 months to give Parliament time to fix the law, and the ruling will still need confirmation from the Constitutional Court of South Africa.

The Monzo Money Pulse: Research finds financial admin could cost Irish SMEs €2.1 billion a year in lost productivity

Leading digital bank Monzo has released the second edition of 'The Monzo Money Pulse', a research-led series exploring how Ireland feels about money. Following its pulse check on savings, Monzo now examines the hidden economic and emotional toll financial admin takes on Irish small business owners. The research, surveying 500 Irish SME owners, reveals that on average, they spend 2 hours and 43 minutes per week on financial admin. With their time valued at an average of €61 per hour, this equates to approximately €165 per week, or over €8,500 per year in lost time per business. Scaled nationally, this amounts to an estimated €2.1 billion per year in lost productivity. "The Monzo Money Pulse found that financial admin is swallowing Irish SMEs' time, with 55% of owners citing expense management as the most time-consuming task.[2] Chasing payments from customers and suppliers (38%), and tax planning as a close follow", said Elaine Deehan, Monzo's Irish Country Manager. "We're removing that friction with a range of plans that include automated tax pots, invoicing and many different methods to pay and get paid. We're turning complex admin into a few simple taps. Businesses can join the waitlist to sign up for an account soon at monzo.com/ie/waitlist." The Stress of Success SMEs form the backbone of the Irish economy, employing around 1.6 million people, or 68% of the business workforce. Yet financial management imposes a heavy emotional toll on them, with 94% of SME owners surveyed, reporting that it makes them feel stressed, with business owners more than twice as likely as sole traders to feel "very stressed." The burden is so significant that 55% of owners who handle financial admin personally would sacrifice playing or watching sports for a month to avoid a year of financial admin. Others would trade away their favourite takeaway (43%) or social media (25%) just to offload the task. Freeing up this time through better banking tools would be transformative: 56% of owners would reinvest that energy into customers or clients, 32% would focus on growth, and 47% would prioritise time with family and friends. Time and Translation Tax Financial admin is a significant time sink for SME owners d, with 47% of those surveyed losing three to four hours weekly and another 36% spending up to two hours. Because 92% of owners surveyed handle these tasks personally, the operational drain is constant: 9% are distracted from core business daily, 40% weekly, and 33% monthly. This burden is compounded by a massive "complexity gap" with 41% of owners feeling they need a translator to understand bank products, terms, or communications.[6] 58% claim untangling a box of cables is easier than managing their finances and over half (55%) even believe predicting the Irish weather is more straightforward than navigating business banking. Frustrations vs Fixes Sharon Malone, CEO and Founder of Finerty said, "Managing financial admin is a stressful, time-consuming part of running your own business. I was spending 5 to 7 hours a month stuck doing manual VAT calculations, categorising and managing receipts, and processing payments through fragmented systems. I recall my early days as an Entrepreneur trying to set up a business bank account, it took weeks and it felt like there wasn't much help or support available". "With Monzo I was able to open an account within 10 minutes and for the first time ever, we have all our payments, merchant services, receipts, invoice management, and transaction categorisation in one place. It has drastically reduced the time and stress I previously spent on admin, giving me more time to focus on growing the business which is exactly how I want to spend it." Sharon's experience echoes the frustrations from SME owners with three quarters (76%) saying it's important that their bank reduces the financial admin of running their business. Monzo Business will soon be offering a range of plans from Lite (free), to Pro (€7/pm) to Team (...

The FATF has warned that stablecoins accounted for 84% of illicit virtual asset volume in 2025, alongside an OPBAS report flagging persistent enforcement weaknesses in the AML supervision of professional services firms. In the EU, the EPPO reveals that VAT and customs fraud drove over €45 billion in estimated damages last year, while the NCA's 2025-2026 Annual Plan shifts resources toward disrupting high-level corrupt elites and professional enablers.

Renault is exploring range-extender EV (EREV) technology for its next-generation electric platform — underpinning models like the Scenic successor — where a combustion engine acts only as a generator for trips up to 1,000km, and Provost is pushing for EREVs to be explicitly permitted for sale in the EU and UK beyond the 2035 all-BEV mandate.NORWAY'S EV SHARE RECOVERS AND HITS 98%Norway registered 7,272 new passenger cars in February 2026, with BEVs accounting for 7,127 of them — a 98.01% market share — as the market began to stabilise after a turbulent end to 2025 driven by expiring VAT exemptions. OFV Director Geir Inge Stokke compared the post-surge normalisation to the period following the 2022 VAT reform, with diesel, petrol PHEVs, hybrids, and pure petrol cars dividing up the remaining 2% between them. NORWAY PASSES ONE MILLION BATTERY-ELECTRIC VEHICLESNorway's battery-electric passenger car fleet has crossed one million, with 951,300 BEV passenger cars and 50,300 BEV light commercial vehicles (LCVs) on the road, representing 32.4% of all passenger cars in the country's 2.94 million-strong fleet. Oslo leads with a 48.9% BEV share in its passenger car fleet and is expected to crack 50% before summer, while rural Finnmark trails at 12.2%, and the Norwegian EV Association's Christina Bu says the LCV transition — currently at just 9.7% — urgently needs to accelerate.UPTAKE SPREADS BEYOND WEALTHIER EARLY ADOPTERSResearch from charging firm char.gy and think tank New Automotive shows that EV adoption in England, once closely tied to wealth as measured by the Index of Multiple Deprivation, has spread significantly into poorer areas by Q3 2024–2025, with growth rates converging across most neighbourhoods. Used BEV transactions surged 45.7% in 2025 to a record 274,815 units, lifting used BEV market share to 3.5%, and with more than two million plug-in vehicles now on UK roads, the main remaining challenge is delivering reliable, affordable on-street charging in the most disadvantaged communities. QUANTUMSCAPE UNVEILS PRODUCTION LINE IN CALIFORNIAQuantumScape officially inaugurated its Eagle Line — a highly automated solid-state battery pilot production facility in San Jose, California — on February 4, 2026, designed not for mass production by QuantumScape itself but as a scalable blueprint that licensing partners, including Volkswagen (which has invested over $300 million), can replicate at gigawatt-hour scale in their own plants. With roughly $850 million in liquidity but a history of burning over $100 million annually and Volkswagen having scaled back its involvement in 2023 after missed timelines, QuantumScape's strategy pivot toward licensing means the next 18–24 months are critical for securing a major customer agreement.KIA UK SETS EV2 FIRST DRIVE WEEKENDSKia UK will run First Drive Weekend events for the EV2 across nearly all 190 UK dealers from April 16 to June 27, 2026, offering structured 30-minute accompanied drives ahead of first deliveries expected later in the year. The EV2 is a compact SUV just over four metres long built on the 400V E-GMP platform, supporting 10%–80% DC rapid charging in around 30 minutes, with two battery options (42.2kWh and 61.0kWh) and an expected starting price of around £25,000 — potentially undercutting rivals like the Renault 5 and Ford Puma Gen-E after the UK's £3,750 plug-in vehicle grant.BMW TEASES FOUR-MOTOR ELECTRIC M3 AT NÜRBURGRINGBMW M has released camouflaged footage of the electric M3 prototype — codenamed ZA0 — lapping the Nürburgring, featuring a unique four-motor all-wheel-drive setup with a front-motor decoupling mode for rear-wheel-drive capability that doesn't appear on any other Neue Klasse model. The ZA0 uses a bespoke battery pack with more than 100 kWh of net energy capacity not shared with regular i3 variants, with production targeted for March 2027 — well after the standard i3 sedan, which entered pre-series production at BMW's Munich plant in February 2026.ROYAL ENFIELD SETS 2026–2027 EV AND ICE PUSHRoyal Enfield is launching its first electric motorcycles under a new sub-brand called Flying Flea, starting with the minimalist urban C6 in 2026 and followed by the scrambler-inspired S6 in 2027, both sharing a common battery architecture that signals a modular platform approach. The brand is also developing an electrified Himalayan adventure bike, pushing its EV ambitions beyond city commuting into a segment that demands tougher performance credentials around weight, range, and durability. NEXT POLESTAR WILL BE SPORTIER AND ON CHINESE PLATFORMPolestar will replace the Polestar 2 in 2027 with a lower, sportier saloon that will be meaningfully longer than today's 4.6-metre car — potentially rivalling the BMW 3 Series — with UK pricing expected to start just below £50,000. The new model shifts to a Geely Holdings group-wide platform shared with Volvo, Lotus, Lynk&Co, and Zeekr, developed at "China speed" in a 30-month cycle versus the typical five-to-seven-year European timeline, with software-defined vehicle capability and advanced central computing at its core.ITALY LAUNCHES FIRST OFFICIAL ELECTRIC PORSCHE CLUBRegistro Italiano E-motion has become the world's first Porsche club built exclusively around battery-electric vehicles, earning official recognition from Porsche after beginning life as a pandemic-era chat group for Italian Taycan owners in 2021. The club's inaugural tour brought together 131 participants and 73 vehicles — a mix of 42 Taycans and 31 Macan Electrics, including two Taycan Turbo GT Weissach models — on a multi-day Alpine drive from Porsche Experience Center Franciacorta in northern Italy to the Hans Peter Porsche Traumwerk museum near Salzburg, Austria.

The 2027 lineup also adds a first-ever iX4 coupe-SUV in two variants, an iX3 in three configurations launching in North America this summer, an electric iX5, and an i3 M60 alongside a full electric M3 positioned as the spiritual successor to today's M3 Competition.TESLA BERLIN RUNS HALF FULL AS UNION ROW SIMMERSTesla's Gigafactory Berlin produced 211,235 vehicles in 2024 against a stated annual capacity of 375,000 — a 56% utilisation rate — and output has since declined further, with the factory now reportedly running at around 40% capacity and BYD outselling Tesla in Europe in January 2026. Labour tensions are deepening ahead of works council elections, with IG Metall pursuing collective wage agreements similar to those at Volkswagen and BMW, while Tesla filed a criminal complaint against a union member and Elon Musk warned that "outside organisations" could hinder the site's ambition to become Europe's largest factory complex.T&E: LOCAL BATTERIES COULD CUT COST GAPA Transport & Environment report argues the EU can shrink the cost gap between domestically made and Chinese batteries from 90% to around 30% through scaled-up local production, with higher automation and lower scrap rates potentially cutting the gap to $14 per kWh by 2030 — equivalent to roughly €500 on an average EV. The findings align with the EU's forthcoming Industrial Accelerator Act, which targets ~70% local content thresholds for publicly supported EVs, though some carmakers warn this risks making batteries prohibitively expensive while T&E's Julia Poliscanova calls it "a sovereignty premium worth paying," particularly given China's export restrictions on critical minerals.TRIBUNAL BACKS 5% VAT ON SOME PUBLIC CHARGINGA UK tax tribunal has ruled against HMRC in a case brought by community charging operator Charge My Street, finding that a de-minimis clause in the VAT Act 1994 — capping "domestic" supplies at 1,000 kWh per month per customer — can qualify most neighbourhood charge points for the 5% reduced VAT rate rather than the 20% rate currently applied to public charging. The ruling is significant for drivers without off-street parking, though it also raises commercial complications, as many charge point operators have multi-year contracts priced on 20% VAT, and it opens the door to networks gaming the threshold by splitting sites or charger banks into separate "premises".ŠKODA OPENS €205M CTP BATTERY PLANT IN CZECHIAŠkoda has opened a €205 million (~$216M), 55,000 m² battery production facility at Mladá Boleslav, making it the Volkswagen Group's largest BEV battery system site and the first VW Group plant in Europe to manufacture cell-to-pack (CTP) systems at scale. The line produces over 1,100 battery systems per day — targeting up to 335,000 annually — and Škoda's switch to LFP cells has cut battery production costs by 30% compared to its previous MEB systems.MG CLOSES IN ON EUROPEAN FACTORY PLANMG has narrowed its European factory search to five countries, aiming to begin production by 2027 to circumvent the EU's 45% tariff on Chinese-built BEVs — a levy that caused MG's European BEV sales to fall 33% to 48,479 units last year, even as overall European sales rose 26% to 307,282 units in 2025. MG Europe head William Wang declared "it's time to build local," positioning the brand as a European marque rather than a Chinese import, as rivals BYD, Chery, and Leapmotor also race to establish European manufacturing footholds.CITROËN UPDATES C5 AIRCROSS PHEV FOR EURO 7Citroën has refreshed the C5 Aircross plug-in hybrid with a new 21.5 kWh battery (17.8 kWh usable), delivering up to 96 km (60 miles) of WLTP combined electric range — a 33% improvement over the outgoing model and ahead of rivals like the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 (69 km) and Ford Kuga PHEV (64 km). Priced in the €40–50k range, Citroën positions the updated C5 Aircross as one of the most tax-efficient family SUVs in the mainstream segment across EU markets while still targeting Euro 7 compliance.CANADIAN TRIAL PEGS ELECTRIC SEMI SAVINGS AT $157,126A real-world Canadian trial by FPInnovations' PIT Group and Transport Canada tracked two commercial fleets over 12 months and more than 200,000 km of Montreal-area operations, projecting savings of $157,126 per truck over six years — described as the most comprehensive dataset of its kind outside controlled demonstrations. The study compared the Freightliner eCascadia (BEV) directly against the diesel Cascadia and found that despite the electric truck's higher purchase price, higher-than-expected maintenance costs, and lower residual value, a six-year saving still emerged and may prove conservative.DENZA D9 ELECTRIC MPV ARRIVES IN AUSTRALIADenza has launched the D9 electric MPV in Australia from A$85,990, powered by a 103.3 kWh Blade Battery with 200 kW DC fast charging, 11 kW AC charging, and V2L capability across both variants, all built on BYD's e-Platform 3.0 with a cell-to-body battery structure. The seven-seat, three-row cabin targets the premium end of the people-mover segment with nappa leather, open-pore white ash wood trim, a 14-speaker Dynaudio sound system, adaptive suspension, and second-row captain's chairs offering over 900 mm of legroom, massage, and individual screens.CHINESE CAR BRANDS SPLIT US BUYERSA Cox Automotive survey of 802 prospective US car buyers found the country almost evenly divided — 38% would consider Chinese brands if available, 39% would not — with Gen Z showing notably higher openness at 69%. Chinese brands remain locked out of the US market by high tariffs and software regulations, but cost pressure is a key driver of interest, with 68% of open buyers expecting lower prices against an average new car price of $50,000, while BYD has already surpassed Tesla in European EV sales.

This article is part of my Planning Your Ireland Vacation series — a step-by-step guide that walks you through the entire planning process, answers common questions, and helps you move forward with clarity. If you'd like to follow the full series in order, you'll find it at:IrelandFamilyVacations.com/planning During your Ireland vacation you'll have dozens of opportunities to purchase Ireland souvenirs and gifts. My advice? Buy items that will keep memories of your trip fresh for years to come. An added bonus when purchasing Ireland souvenirs – the Value Added Tax refund you receive as you leave the country. Ireland Souvenir Buying Tips If you love it, buy it; you may not find it again. This is especially true for hand crafted and artisan items. If you enjoy a busker and they have a CD available, buy it (or toss in a tip and add them to your Spotify playlist). Irish whiskey – unless the items is exclusive to the distillery wait to purchase it at Duty Free. You'll usually get a better price, the purchase is tax-free, and you won't have to pack it in your carry-on bag. Buy ‘trinkets' at Duty Free in the airport. Trinkets = inexpensive items you see in every gift shop. Chocolates travel well – buy at Duty Free unless you find a chocolate shop you absolutely LOVE. If buying chocolates as a gift purchase two. Unless you have exceptional willpower, one may not make it home. Some items can (and should) be shipped. Pottery, crystal, and glassware are a good example of this.

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast after a busy week of action on the PDC ProTour!   The boys start off the show with a look back at the Poland Darts Open, the first PDC European Tour event to be held in Poland, and discuss how Luke Littler's title-winning campaign in Krakow compares to the best ever in European Tour history.   Aden Kirk (20:02) joins the show ahead of making his UK Open return in Minehead next weekend. The former PDC tour card holder looks back on his career in the game so far, from bursting onto the scene at the 2014 UK Open and beating Phil Taylor on his TV debut to then taking some time away from the sport to start a family, winning on the Challenge Tour in 2024, becoming a children's book author and winning through the PDC In The Community Qualifiers in Alfreton to secure a third appearance in The FA Cup of Darts next week.   Alex and Burton continue their review of the last seven days with a look back at this week's Players Championship double header in Leicester, which saw Ross Smith and Gerwyn Price win the titles, Andrew Gilding make a final and Beau Greaves throw the first nine-dart leg by a female player on the PDC ProTour.   James Beeton (53:57) calls in ahead of his UK Open debut in Minehead next week. The recently-crowned Scottish Open champion reflects on the last few years on the oche, from qualifying for Lakeside for the first time in 2024 and winning his first senior WDF title at the Denmark Open to having his best year to date on the Development Tour in 2025, qualifying for the UK Open for the first time and rising up the ranks in the WDF and making the quarter-finals at Lakeside last year.   The boys finish up the show with a look back at the 2026 PDC Development Tour opening weekend in Leicester and pick out the players who caught their eye, before discussing Mitchell Lawrie becoming the youngest WDF #1 at just 15 years and 110 days old and whether that record will ever be broken.   Join the Darts Strava King group on Strava *** Get your own Alex Moss replica shirt (as worn by our co-host at the Las Vegas Open 2026) from DJD here!

'Bomber' chats through his journey in darts so far, from calling time on his rugby league playing days and picking up darts, rising through the ranks at a local level and then a breakthrough title on the Challenge Tour last year, which saw him earn multiple call ups to the PDC ProTour as a top-up player, before securing his first-ever PDC tour card at UK Q-School last month.   New PDC referee Owen Binks (56:13) calls in ahead of his PDC European Tour debut as a referee at the Poland Darts Open this weekend. Owen reflects on the last few years, from how a phone call from the legendary referee George Noble led to him becoming a regular referee on the MODUS Super Series, to learning how to be a spotter and earning a call up to spot for Sky Sports, and then taking on a new role as a PDC referee on stage this year following George's retirement last month.   Join the Darts Strava King group on Strava *** Get your own Alex Moss replica shirt (as worn by our co-host at the Las Vegas Open 2026) from DJD here!

In this episode of Home Truths, we unpack one of the most pivotal — and often confusing, stages of any renovation: receiving and reviewing quotes.We talk about why prices can differ dramatically, the difference between budgets, estimates and quotes, and why a single lump sum isn't enough to make an informed decision. Jane explains how to properly review a tender, what a cost breakdown should include, and how to compare builders fairly, so you're not caught out later.We also cover the hidden costs that frequently cause budgets to spiral, including provisional sums, client-supplied items, VAT, scaffolding, and permits, and share the one question every homeowner should ask: “What's not included?”If you're planning a renovation or about to receive quotes, this episode will help you approach the process with clarity and confidence - and avoid the costly misunderstandings that often begin with “I assumed that was included.If you're about to get quotes back from your builder - this one's for you!!Sponsored by Plykea;Web:  https://www.plykea.com/Insta: @plykeakitchensBrought to you by HomeNotes;Web: homenotes.coInsta: @wearehomenotes Try the HomeNotes App;Web: homenotes.coInsta: @wearehomenotes Check out our FREE webinars here >>

In this episode of What Are You Doing in Denmark, Derek and Annie sit down with personal trainer and educator Mikkel Valgreen to unpack what's happening, why it's happening, and who's most affected.The change stems from an EU classification that defines fitness services as “commercial” rather than healthcare. That means higher prices for gym memberships, personal training, and classes while taxes on things like sugar and alcohol are being reduced.We break down:Why the VAT was introducedHow gyms and trainers are respondingWho is exempt (and who isn't)The political debate around whether fitness should count as healthcareWhat it means for Denmark's long-term public healthPlus, Mikkel shares practical advice for actually sticking to your fitness goals in 2026 without burning out by the end of February.If you live in Denmark, work in fitness, or just care about how policy affects your daily life, this episode is for you.Mikkel Valgreen (guest):https://www.mikkelvalgreenpt.dk/https://www.instagram.com/valgreen_pt

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast after the first PDC ProTour events of 2026!   The boys start the show with a brand-new game as Burton attempts to predict the quarter-final results of this week's Premier League night in Antwerp the day after with no prior knowledge of the results! Alex and Burton then take a look back at this week's Players Championship double-header in Germany and focus on the two title winners James Wade and Wessel Nijman.   New PDC tour card holder Samuel Price (24:44) joins the show to look back on a dramatic UK Q-School, which saw him secure a tour card on the final day as one of the top-up players from the First Stage Order of Merit. Samuel talks through his time in the game so far, from how he first got introduced to darts and then taking a break after suffering with dartitis, to making a comeback during lockdown, the influence of the ADC and UKDA in improving his game and a memorable start to 2026 that saw him become a PDC tour card holder for the first time.   Alex and Burton continue their review of the last week in darts and look back on the Dutch Open, which saw Germany's Paul Krohne and home favourite Priscilla Steenbergen win the two main titles in Assen.   The newly crowned Junior World Masters champion Kaya Baysal (1:07:18) calls in to reflect on his landmark win in Milton Keynes last month. The teenager looks back on a whirlwind last 12 months which saw him make history as the youngest winner of a WDF senior title in Hungary, breaking Luke Littler's record, play in youth events on the Lakeside and Alexandra Palace stages, and then defeat Mitchell Lawrie in the final of the inaugural Junior World Masters on the Arena MK stage just a few weeks ago.   The boys wrap up the show with a dip into the mailbag to answer your listeners questions.   Join the Darts Strava King group on Strava *** Get your own Alex Moss replica shirt (as worn by our co-host at the Las Vegas Open 2026) from DJD here!

Why Your Bank Balance Is Lying to You (The Cash Flow Framework That Saves Businesses) - Marc Obrart

You've got £250K in the bank. You're profitable. Everything looks fine.Then your VAT bill hits and you're scrambling. Or a major client payment is 60 days late and suddenly you can't make payroll.Marc Obrart has seen this exact scenario play out dozens of times. As co-founder of Fin House, he provides finance teams and CFOs to 50+ scale-ups. And the pattern he sees most often? Founders managing by their bank account instead of understanding the two stories every business tells.Here's what makes this different:Marc's not talking about hiring expensive CFOs or implementing complex ERP systems. He's talking about getting the basics right - and most founders don't have them in place.His approach is simple: finance should be embedded in your business, not isolated in a dark corner. When finance is done right, you have access to forward-looking data that lets you make confident decisions about hiring, marketing spend, and growth.You'll learn:Why your bank balance is a terrible way to manage your business. It tells you where you are now, not where you're going. Founders look at £250K and think they're fine—then their VAT bill goes out in three days and they've forgotten to connect the dots.The rolling 13-week cash flow framework and why this specific timeframe matters. In 13 weeks (roughly 3 months), you should know everything: new hires coming in, monthly payroll, payment terms from customers (30-90 days), supplier obligations. This is your Bible. If you don't have this, you're flying blind.Why VAT catches founders out more than margins, profitability, or any other metric. It's a red herring—you're collecting it, sitting on it, and then suddenly you owe £150K and don't have the cash because you thought it was available. Ring-fence it. Track available cash separately.The two stories your business tells: your profit story (management accounts) and your cash story (cash flow). These are completely different. You can be profitable and run out of cash. You can have cash and be unprofitable. Get your profit wrong, you have time to fix it. Get cash wrong, you're out of business in 30 days.Why you probably don't need an ERP system or NetSuite. Most businesses can run on Xero with proper bookkeeping, controls, and forward-looking insights. Don't overcomplicate it.How to know if your finance setup is useful. If you're skipping pages in your management pack, they shouldn't be there. If you don't understand something, it's not simple enough—and that's the finance team's fault, not yours.Marc also shares his background as an FA-qualified football coach and how explaining tactics to 9-year-olds taught him to simplify finance for founders. The crossover is remarkable: clear, concise messaging that people can actually understand and act on.The reality check:This isn't about fancy systems or complicated models. It's about nailing the basics: up-to-date bookkeeping, a rolling 13-week cash flow, and understanding your 3-5 key KPIs (not 25). If you don't have these in place, you're managing by gut feel—and that's how businesses end up in trouble.If you've been managing by your bank balance or avoiding your finance function because it feels too complicated, this episode shows you exactly what to fix.One action: Listen to the end for Marc's single recommendation every founder should implement immediately.Questions?

Brain in a Vat is back from hiatus with a deep dive into the philosophy of religion. Stephen Kershnar and Nathan Bray join us to ask whether God can be morally responsible and whether worship makes sense if God could not have done otherwise.The discussion begins with a thought experiment about gratitude and worship. If worship expresses praise for morally responsible action, can a perfectly good God deserve it at all? Kershnar and Bray argue that divine perfection may undermine responsibility rather than secure it.From there, Kershnar and Bray explore compulsion, omnibenevolence, and free will. Along the way, we discuss moral saints, chess computers, Frankfurt-style cases, Patty Hearst, and the costs these arguments impose on traditional theism. We would love to hear your thoughts. Is worship grounded in gratitude, awe, or something else entirely? And does God need moral responsibility to be worthy of it?[00:00] Welcome Back to Brain in a Vat [00:45] Thought Experiment: Worship and Gratitude [02:59] The Compulsion Argument[05:04] The Role of Awe in Worship [13:21] Maximizing Goodness and Divine Discretion [20:26] The Problem of Evil and Divine Psychology [33:33] Exploring Patty Hearst's Psychology [40:19] The Nature of God's Perfection [46:57] Philosophical Debates on God's Existence[01:03:49] Concluding Thoughts and Viewer Engagement
