Trump Urges India Stop Buying Oil From Russia, Palantir Hits Record Revenue

Bloomberg15 hours ago
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government hasn't given India's oil refiners instructions to stop buying Russian oil, and no decision has been taken on whether to halt the purchases, people familiar with the situation told Bloomberg, asking not to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter. Palantir Technologies' unstoppable rally the past year has yielded more than sixfold gains for investors. The firm reported a 48% increase in second-quarter revenue as it topped $1 billion in a quarter for the first time, saying artificial intelligence was having an 'astonishing impact' on its business.

Bolstering India's IT Channel with WeFi's Market-Specific Vendor Program

NEW DELHI--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- WeFi Technology Group, a leading global fintech innovator, is thrilled to announce its expansion into India's burgeoning technology market. WeFi Technology Group, a leading global fintech innovator, is thrilled to announce its expansion into India's burgeoning technology market. The global economy is brimming with potential, particularly in developing economies and emerging markets. For multinational technology companies, venturing into these developing markets presents a lucrative opportunity. However, navigating the unique nuances and complexities associated with these regions is crucial for sustainable success. Unlike their developed counterparts, developing economies have particular challenges. Regulations, legislation, compliance requirements and tax structures can vary significantly from country to country. Developing economies also often experience significant currency and interest rate fluctuations due to political instability, monetary policy adjustments, inflation and regional conflicts. To address the unique challenges and opportunities presented by the Indian market, WeFi has developed a tailored vendor program designed to streamline operations, enhance efficiency and drive growth. The program demonstrates how WeFi's expertise and experience in being a global growth partner can enable vendors in developing markets with unique channel solutions that simplify regulatory and financial intricacies. A Tailored Approach 'Channel finance is complex yet full of opportunities, especially in emerging super-economies such as India – a vast and fast-growing market and a big global IT channel hub,' explains Boris Todorov, WeFi's Chief Client Officer. WeFi's mandate is to structure and deliver working capital solutions in some of the world's most intricate markets: solutions that address credit, interest rates and foreign exchange risks, multiple currencies and languages, to name a few, ensuring alignment with ever-changing compliance, accounting, tax and currency regulations, including data privacy. The solution is non-recourse and also funded, a feature that other finance competitors have struggled to deliver. 'At WeFi, we've built a reputation for embracing complexity. Our seasoned Client Solutions Group works closely with our on-the-ground sales and relationship management teams to ensure successful implementation of client solutions. For India, we created a locally focused channel program for a major vendor, helping them streamline their processes, and enhance their visibility and reporting effectiveness while removing cumbersome administration. We developed the program to ensure its longevity, simplifying regulations, tax, administration and client management,' he adds. Powered by Innovation WeFi leverages cutting-edge AI to deliver innovative financial solutions that unlock working capital, drive growth and capitalise on emerging opportunities. 'Our proprietary, cloud-based platform, IZZI, streamlines processes and empowers real-time, cross-border data visibility,' says Todorov, adding that 'with operations in over 40 countries and counting, IZZI's multi-language modules also help ensure efficient and timely onshore operations and support.' IZZI's current automation tools and capabilities include real-time access on any device 24/7; analytics in the form of automated and custom reports; robust data protection and security; integrated invoice dispute resolution; as well as insights to help customers optimise workflows, improve decision-making and better understand their business. A Bright Future for India's IT Channel WeFi is committed to supporting the growth and development of India's IT channel. 'Every market has its peculiarities with respect to setting up channel programs that deliver growth, explains Todorov. 'As we continue to expand our presence in India, we look forward to partnering with technology vendors and channel partners to drive innovation, deliver value, accelerate growth, and unleash the region's full potential in the dynamic IT channel finance space.'
