- A + A BENGALURU (June 27): Singapore Telecommunications said it does not plan to list its Australian unit Optus, refuting reports that it was working on an initial public offering valuing the wireless carrier at between A$8 billion (US$5.54 billion) and A$12 billion. Singtel on Monday called the news articles published by Australian media "highly speculative", saying it regularly reviews its strategy and that it would make an announcement if there was any information that warranted disclosure. The Australian said investment banks Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley had been involved in a plan to float Optus in recent months, but Singtel was expected to pause the listing due to market volatility. Optus had reported operating revenue of A$7.84 billion and core profit of A$2.07 billion for the 2021-2022 period. Singtel shares rose 1.6% to S$2.62 by 0511 GMT. … [Read more...] about Singtel says it does not plan to list Australian unit Optus

KOTA KINABALU: The government has to come up with a confidence boosting strategic plan to address the energy and food security issues in the country, says Parti Warisan. Party president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said that while short-term assistance such as subsidies were needed, it should be targeted. He said spending RM77.3bil on subsidies as disclosed by Finance Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz recently, with the bulk allocated for energy subsidies that benefit the higher income group, was unwise and wasteful. He said the move was not sustainable and showed unsound management of the country’s economy. “The subsidies for this year are higher than the entire national development expenditure of RM76.6bil. Where do we get the money for this?” Shafie asked. He said last month, the government had to pay RM7.5bil for the 1MDB debt, and another RM7.5bil needed to be paid at the end of the year. Together with subsidies, the people would have to fork out … [Read more...] about Govt must come up with strategic plan to address energy, food security, says Shafie

- A + A KUALA LUMPUR (June 27): The government's plans to increase subsidies to cover the cost of living are a positive and could improve market sentiment in the short term as this will help maintain consumers' purchasing power and reduce operational cost pressures on Malaysian companies in the second half of 2022 (2H22). Coupled with the return of foreign labour, this could boost Malaysian manufacturing competitiveness in the export market and point to an early general election in Malaysia in 2H22, CGS-CIMB said in a strategy note on Monday (June 27). Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz announced on Saturday that the projected consumption subsidy expenditure is RM77.3 billion in 2022, the highest ever borne by any government, versus RM17.4 billion estimated in Budget 2022. The projected consumption subsidy covers petrol, diesel and liquefied petroleum gas (RM37.3 billion), cooking oil (RM4 billion), flour and electricity (RM9.7 billion), … [Read more...] about CGS-CIMB: Govt’s plan to raise subsidies boosts short-term market sentiment and signals early election

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Black businesses were slammed by the pandemic-induced recession of 2020. Although they bounced back fairly strongly in 2021– according to research by Robert Fairlie, a professor at University of California, Santa Cruz–many Black businesses still have some of the vulnerabilities that existed before, such as low cash reserves and difficulty accessing credit relative to other groups. These vulnerabilities will likely still exist in the event of another downturn, the odds of which are growing. “If we do slip into a recession I predict that it will be bad for Black-owned businesses,” Fairlie tells Forbes . He added that many such businesses already struggled through the pandemic “and don't have large cash reserves, owner wealth, or access to bank credit to weather another recession.” The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week that the economists it surveys have dramatically raised the probability of … [Read more...] about Are Black Businesses Ready For Another Recession?

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin By Anjan Pathak For any aspiring leader, going through a crisis is a rite of passage. After all, it's easy to be a good manager when everything is going well, but your ability as a leader is truly tested when there is a true crisis. While crisis management may be near the top of a manager's priority list, it is one of the trickiest areas to navigate. Thus, it's not surprising that crisis preparation for a company can cost anywhere from $60,000 to $500,000 (depending on the industry and location). In comparison, unprepared companies in a crisis can spend close to millions of dollars on mitigation while at the same time losing hundreds of millions in reputation and shareholder value. The real issue with crisis management is that it is incredibly unpredictable. You never know when or what kind of crisis will strike. Consider the Covid-19 pandemic. If someone had told us in 2019 that the world would be in a two-year … [Read more...] about 5 Ways To Be A Better Leader During A Crisis
