StanChart CEO Winters Says Private Credit to Keep Its Edge Over Banks
Private credit firms enjoy a significant capital advantage over traditional banks, according to Bill Winters, chief executive officer of Standard Chartered. "I don't think that's going to change anytime soon. The result of which is banks are disadvantaged lenders," Winters said in an interview with Bloomberg's Francine Lacqua. He also discussed the UK regulatory climate and the impact of US tariffs on the financial industry. (Source: Bloomberg)

Romania to Win Reprieve From EU in Struggle to Contain Deficit
Save The European Union is likely to offer the Romanian government a reprieve to introduce measures aimed at paring its ballooning budget deficit before moving to potential punitive action against the Black Sea nation. The European Commission will give Bucharest some time before moving to suspend EU funds as part of a report on Romania's progress under a so-called excessive-deficit procedure to be released Wednesday, according to people familiar with the deliberations who asked not to be identified as talks take place behind closed doors.

Trump's Foreign Policy, Explained
This is an edited transcript of an episode of 'The Ezra Klein Show.' You can listen to the conversation by following or subscribing to the show on the NYT Audio App, Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube, iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. One thing that's been on my mind is that we've not been covering Israel and Gaza or Ukraine and Russia nearly as much as we did in 2023 and 2024, frankly, as much as I think we should be. There have been two reasons for that. One has been that President Trump's second administration has felt, in many ways, like a domestic emergency, and it has pulled much more of our focus here. The other is that often, when we're covering these conflicts, what we're really covering — implicitly or explicitly — is the American position on them: How are we going to use our might, our money, our weaponry, our leverage to bring them to some kind of close or settlement? And early in Trump's second administration, he basically filled me with despair. He seemed to have little interest in Gaza, except for potentially building hotels there. Beyond that, he seemed perfectly happy to let Israel annex whatever it wanted. On Ukraine, he was at odds with Volodymyr Zelensky, and his main interest seemed to be his relationship with Vladimir Putin. But things have been changing a bit. Other parts of his 'America First' foreign policy have been coming into more focus. So what is Trump's foreign policy? What, at this point, can we say about it? How has it been evolving over the course of his still young second term? To help me think that through, I wanted to bring Emma Ashford back on the show. She is a senior fellow at the Stimson Center. She's the author of the forthcoming book 'First Among Equals,' and she's a foreign-policy analyst who is more of a realist. She's in fundamental ways more sympathetic to some of the motivating impulses of Trump's foreign policy, even if she doesn't always agree with how that's carried out. So I thought she'd be a good person to help me steel-man what the administration is doing and think through whether that's working or has a real chance of working. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
