15 BASIS POINTS OR $0.15 FOR EACH $100. UBS's IQBAL KHAN THE EX OF CREDIT SUISSE HAS BEEN PUSHING HARD TO RETAIN TALENT AND BRING BACK FUNDS

Editorial Staff.

Bloomberg said in an article late last week citing unnamed sources, that relationship managers at both firms will receive commissions of 15 basis points, or $0.15 for each $100 in new client money they can bring in. This news service has contacted UBS for comment and may update this article in due course. It hadn’t received a comment at the time of going to press."

"The Bloomberg article noted that Iqbal Khan, the wealth boss at UBS, was in Singapore in recent days to meet with staff and clients. Khan, who previously worked at Credit Suisse, has been pushing hard to retain talent and bring back funds to the new combination. 

A number of figures in the executive search and related fields have told WealthBriefingAsia that Credit Suisse bankers have left or are planning to leave. It is highly likely that Khan, given his own experience, will want to encourage high-performers to stay."

TAMING INFLATION WHILE BEATING THE ECONOMY RESULT IN BANKING CRISIS , PREDICTION OF A SEVERE RECESSION IN 2023

" Around this time last year, Nouriel Roubini, the famed economist who has earned the sobriquet  Dr. Doom  on Wall Street for his gloomy outlook on markets, warned that it would be “ mission impossible ” for the U.S. to avoid a severe recession in 2023." " The comments mark a big shift in tone from Roubini, who in July 2022 said that his peers predicting a short and shallow recession at the time were “ totally delusional .” But a lot has changed since last July. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has managed to cool inflation to from its 9.1% pandemic-era high to just 3.7%, all while maintaining U.S. GDP growth; supply chains, which were thrown into chaos during the pandemic, have mostly  healed ; and despite a short-lived regional banking  crisis  in March, the S&P 500 is up over 16% year to date."

IMEC. LACKS LOGICAL JUSTIFICATION.

 "Critics argue that India’s new corridor lacks logical justification. India opting for a rail and shipping corridor when the existing and cheaper Suez Canal and maritime routes are available does not make sense . Secondly, building railways through desert terrain requires elevated tracks with deep support to withstand shifting sands and hard bedrock. The political landscape in the US adds another layer of uncertainty, as opposition to investment in this corridor could increase if the Biden administration loses power. The Republicans, on the other hand, would oppose putting money into a failing project just like they did not want to put money into the Ukraine war. On the other hand, the US and India have previously announced initiatives like the Chabahar Corridor, the International North-South Corridor and the US Blue Dot Network, but the status of these projects remains uncertain." "...Moreover, IMEC passes through Jordan and Israel, introducing complex geopolitical ch
