Business this week
Sep 17th 2009 From The Economist print edition
Barack Obama went to Wall Street on the first anniversary of the collapse of Lehman Brothers to tout his blueprint for overhauling America’s financial regulatory system. The president recognised that the financial industry is “beginning to return to normalcy” after the worst panic since the 1930s, but warned that there are some “who are misreading this moment”. He reiterated his administration’s plans to create a Consumer Financial Protection Agency, close regulatory loopholes and hand more oversight powers to the Federal Reserve. Critics responded that the proposals would only hinder banks.
Ben Bernanke said for the first time that America’s recession is probably over, “from a technical perspective”. The chairman of the Federal Reserve cautioned that the economy’s recovery would be weak initially, and job creation would be slow. In its annual report on employment, the OECD described the short-term outlook for jobs in the rich world as “grim”.
The IMF presented its guidelines for easing public aid to banks. The fund said that although it was “still too early” to withdraw substantial support, governments should be thinking hard about exit strategies and that the “recovery rates on assets acquired should be maximised”. See article
It emerged that Citigroup has begun discussions on how to reduce the American government’s 34% stake in the bank, which the Treasury bought through a preferred-stock conversion. Using Citi’s current share price, the government is thought to be sitting on a paper profit of around $10 billion. Citi’s share price fell sharply, however, when it sold $5 billion in government-backed bonds under emergency legislation that will expire soon, raising fears that it is still far from healthy.
A federal judge took an unusual step and set aside a proposed settlement between the Securities and Exchange Commission and Bank of America for allegedly misleading shareholders on executive bonuses paid to Merrill Lynch staff after the two banks merged. The judge said the settlement was a “cynical” agreement that did not identify precisely who was at fault, and ordered a trial. Meanwhile, New York state’s attorney-general issued subpoenas to five former and current BofA directors in his investigation into the bonuses.
Morgan Stanley said that John Mack would step down in January as chief executive, a job he has held since 2005 (he will stay on as chairman). The bank’s new boss will be James Gorman, who is currently in charge of asset management. See article
Robert Gates, America’s defence secretary, declared that the air force would regain control of the process for awarding a $35 billion contract for new refuelling tankers. The air force’s decision to go with an aircraft made jointly by Europe’s EADS and Northrop Grumman was overturned by Mr Gates in July 2008 after auditors broadly agreed with Boeing’s complaint about the procedures used to assess the project.
Japan Airlines shed 14% of its workforce, or 6,800 jobs, and reduced its schedule of international flights. It is also negotiating with other airlines keen to take a stake in JAL and gain access to its Asian routes.
The European Union’s competition regulator said she would study the terms of General Motors’ plan to spin off Opel, its European arm. After months of talks, GM accepted a bid from a Canadian-Russian consortium led by Magna, a car-parts supplier, which will invest €500m ($725m). The bid depends on loan guarantees from the German government, which some say will lead to the protection of German jobs and the closure of more efficient plants elsewhere. See article
Adobe Systems, which is best known for its Acrobat PDF reader and Photoshop software, agreed to pay $1.8 billion for Omniture. With revenues falling from its graphic-design products, Adobe wanted to gain access to Omniture’s technology for monitoring the performance of internet sites and web advertising.
Facebook reported that 50m people have signed up to its service since July, taking the total number of users to 300m. The social-networking website has also become cashflow positive, with enough revenue to cover its operations and capital spending. See article
Nicolas Sarkozy unveiled a report into the usefulness of gross domestic product as an economic indicator. The study, from a panel chaired by Joseph Stiglitz, a Nobel-prize-winning economist, was commissioned by the French president last year. It suggests that GDP could be improved by including factors that contribute towards individual well-being, such as holidays, and relying less on pure measures of market output. See article
