This includes an increase of two over the past year, namely Investec Bank (the parent of the domestically incorporated Investec, which has been operating in Australia for some time), and Societe Generale, which has returned to the Australian market after a six year absence. While it has not obtained an ADI licence, 2019 also saw the return of Barclays Capital. UK banks in aggregate were the fastest growing in Europe, with growth over the past year of 42%. French banks in aggregate were growing the slowest at 0.6%, while the only German bank operating in Australia, Deutsche Bank, saw its resident assets decline by 3.2%. Of individual banks, ABN Amro was the fastest growing, increasing resident assets by over 152 times from a very small base, having just returned to Australia at the end of last year. HSBC Australia, Standard Charted and UBS all grew resident Australian assets by over 50%. BNP Paribas and Deutsche Bank both contracted resident Australian assets over the past year.

  • UK-Australia Trade Deal Economics - Global
    18 June 2021 Free to View UK-Australia trade deal Economics - Global An agreement in principle The UK has agreed its first major post-Brexit trade deal Shanella Rajanayagam Trade Economist The agreement with Australia eliminates tariffs on the bulk of HSBC Bank plc goods trade and tackles barriers to services and digital trade Deal should help to strengthen UK trade linkages with the Asia-Pacific region and pave the way for it to join the CPTPP An Australia-style deal The UK has agreed a trade deal in principle with Australia that aims to tackle tariff and non-tariff barriers across a range of trade areas. Although the full text of the deal has not yet been published, British exporters are set to ultimately benefit from the removal of all Australian tariffs, including on cars and whisky, while Australian businesses will benefit from expanded agricultural market access into the UK. The UK will immediately remove tariffs on Australian wine and phase out duties on Australian beef and lamb exports over 10 years via quotas. However, British farmers will be protected from surges in Australian meat exports for a further five years through the use of safeguards. Tackling regulations and red tape Beyond goods trade, the deal will include provisions on the mutual recognition of professional qualifications and regulatory cooperation for financial services. UK investors will benefit from higher investment screening thresholds in Australia while Australians and Brits under the age of 35 will be able to travel and work in each other’s markets more freely. Both sides have also agreed to tackle barriers to digital trade, to lock in high domestic protections for workers and to affirm environmental commitments under the Paris Agreement.

  • Regional Financial Disparity in India: Can It Be Measured?
    Journal of Institutional Economics (2021), 17, 836–860 doi:10.1017/S1744137421000291 RESEARCH ARTICLE Regional financial disparity in India: can it be measured? Rashmi U. Arora* and P. B. Anand Faculty of Management, Law & Social Sciences, University of Bradford, Bradford, UK *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] (Received 25 November 2019; revised 7 April 2021; accepted 8 April 2021) Abstract In this study, we examine disparities in financial development at the regional level in India. The major research questions of the study are: how do we measure the level of financial development at the sub- national level? How unequal is financial development across the states? Does it vary by ownership of financial institutions? To explore these research questions, our study develops a composite banking devel- opment index at the sub-national level for three different bank groups – public, private and foreign for 25 Indian states covering 1996–2015. Our findings suggest that despite reforms, banking development is sig- nificantly higher in the leading high income and more developed regions compared to lagging ones. Furthermore, we find that all bank groups including public banks are concentrated more in the developed regions. Overall, over the years the position of top three and bottom three states in the aggregate banking index have remained unchanged reflecting lop-sidedness of regional development. We also note improve- ment in the ranking of some north-eastern states during the period 2009–15. Key words: Banking development index; financial development; financial inclusion; India JEL codes: D63; G21; O16; O53 1. Introduction Recent discussions on inequality have focused on increasing global income and wealth inequality between individuals, inequality between countries and inequality among different population groups within a country (Atkinson, 2015; Pickety, 2014; Stiglitz, 2013, 2015).

KATHERINE POLK FAILLA, District Judge: Before the Court is a weighty question with a convoluted answer: Can Venezuela’s state oil company unburden itself of its contractual obligations, pursuant to a transaction consummated four years ago, by dint of foreign law or sovereign act? The question arises from a bond swap transaction (the “Exchange Offer”) that occurred in October 2016. Plaintiff Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (“PDVSA”), with the guaranty of Plaintiff PDVSA Petróleo, S.A. (“PDVSA Petróleo”), had previously issued two sets of bonds that were scheduled to come due in April and November of 2017 (the “2017 Notes”), with an aggregate principal amount of $9,150,000,000. However, in the years following the issuance of the 2017 Notes, the Venezuelan oil market had become volatile, and by September 2016 it seemed unlikely that PDVSA would be able to pay the significant obligations that would be due the following year. In an effort to forestall a potential default on the 2017 Notes, PDVSA engineered the Exchange Offer, by which it would swap the 2017 Notes for bonds scheduled to come due in 2020 (the “2020 Notes”). Controversially, the Case 1:19-cv-10023-KPF Document 215 Filed 10/16/20 Page 2 of 68 2020 Notes were secured by a pledge of 50.1% of the equity in CITGO Holding (“CITGO”), which was pledged by PDV Holding, Inc.
