British digital bank Monzo's annual profit surges, revenue tops $1.35 billion

June 2 (Reuters) - British digital bank Monzo reported revenue above 1 billion pounds ($1.35 billion) for the first time and a sharp rise in annual pretax profit on Monday, driven by strong growth in personal and business customer numbers. The fintech company, which is reportedly gearing up for an initial public offering, posted a pretax profit of 60.5 million pounds for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared with 13.9 million pounds a year earlier. Fiscal year 2024 marked the company's first profitable year. The mobile app-based bank, launched in 2015, is one of several digital banks that have emerged in Britain to challenge the dominance of HSBC (HSBA.L), opens new tab, Lloyds (LLOY.L), opens new tab, Barclays (BARC.L), opens new tab and NatWest (NWG.L), opens new tab - the country's Big Four. Monzo, which has more than 12 million customers, last year outlined plans to expand into Europe through Ireland and strengthen its presence in the United States. Customer deposits increased 48% to 16.6 billion pounds for the year, the lender said. Monzo has considered listing in either Britain or the United States but has not set a firm timeline or chosen a venue for an IPO, a person familiar with the company's plans told Reuters in March. Sky News reported earlier this month that the lender was preparing to appoint bankers to spearhead its planned stock market floatation. Last October, the British bank was valued at 4.5 billion pounds in an employee share sale to a group of investors, including Singapore's sovereign wealth fund. ($1 = 0.7388 pounds)

Maja Stark captures U.S. Women's Open for first major title

June 2 - Maja Stark has won tournaments around the world, but a professional victory in the United States eluded her. Now she's a U.S. Women's Open champion. Stark carded an even-par 72 to win the second major of the year by two shots Sunday at Erin Hills in Erin, Wis. The 25-year-old from Sweden led the championship by one stroke through 54 holes and outlasted World No. 1 Nelly Korda, who got within a shot of the lead before petering out on the back nine. "I just didn't want to get ahead of myself. I thought there's still a lot of golf left to be played," Stark said. "I just felt like people are going to pass me probably, and I just had to stay calm through that. "I didn't look at the leaderboards until I was on like 17. I caught a glimpse of it. It was nice." Stark posted a 7-under-par 281 for the week. Korda (71) tied for second with Japan's Rio Takeda (72) at 5 under, and South Korea's Hye-Jin Choi carded a 68 to claim a share of fourth place at 4 under with countrywoman Mao Saigo (73) and China's Ruoning Yin (70). Korda had a 2-under front nine to get to 6 under for the championship. Stark was nursing a one-stroke lead over Korda when she birdied No. 11 from 14 feet. Korda bogeyed the par-3 13th and birdied the next hole, but only after an eagle opportunity slid by. Stark made a two-putt birdie at No. 14 to get to 9 under and had enough cushion to absorb bogeys at the difficult Nos. 17 and 18, where she missed each fairway. "You need to kind of think about every shot here," Stark said of the difficult course setup. "Maybe not the tee shot on 10. I think that's fine. But everything else, you've just got to have your brain working for you, whereas like on normal weeks, you can kind of bail out. Here, not really." Stark has six wins to her name on the Ladies European Tour. One of those, the ISPS Handa World Invitational in Northern Ireland, was co-sanctioned by the LPGA and earned her a tour card in 2022. Before Sunday, the highlight of Stark's minimal major resume was placing second to Korda at the 2024 Chevron Championship. Now, she is just the third Swedish woman to win a U.S. Women's Open after Liselotte Neumann and golf legend Annika Sorenstam. "It's so cool. They texted me yesterday and just kind of said, 'Bring it home,'" Stark said. "That was already cool to just get those texts. Just looking at all the names on the trophy. I love the U.S. Opens. I'm so happy that it's mine now." Korda came up short of a would-be third major victory. She earned her best finish at a U.S. Women's Open and her third top-10 after she missed the cut last year. "To have that showing last year definitely put a dagger into my heart, but that's just golf," Korda said. "You're going to lose more than you win a majority of the time. I feel like I actually learn a lot about myself and my game and where I need to improve playing the U.S. Women's Open because it does test every part of your game. "It's also super motivating ... to see where my game's at. Hopefully I can continue trending in the right direction for a long season ahead." Takeda made an early double bogey in an otherwise solid round to stay close to the top of the leaderboard all day. She tied for ninth at this championship last year in her major debut and followed that with a T2 on Sunday. "This is a major, of course, and it is a big tournament. So I always thought that I would like to do my best here," Takeda said. Julia Lopez Ramirez of Spain played in the final pairing with Stark after shooting a 68 on Saturday. She struggled from the outset and finished 1 over for the event after a triple-bogey 8 on the final hole destined her to a score of 79. --Field Level Media

China vows ‘forceful measures' after accusing US of violating tariffs truce

China said the US 'severely violated' the consensus reached during their recent trade talks in Geneva and threatened 'forceful measures' in response, dealing a big blow to the prospect of a thaw in the trade war between the two largest economies. The Chinese commerce ministry on Monday accused Washington of seriously undermining progress in mending trade relations with its series of actions, including the revocation of visas for Chinese students. The statement marked the latest sign of deteriorating relations between China and the US under Donald Trump, who imposed sweeping import levies on Beijing and sparked a tit-for-tat tariff war. The two sides had managed to dial down tensions after a meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, last month led to the lowering of tariffs on goods imported from each nation and even raised hopes of a phone call between Mr Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping. The commerce ministry said China was 'strictly implementing' the consensus reached in Geneva but the US was taking steps that 'seriously undermine' it, state media reported. 'The United States has been unilaterally provoking new economic and trade frictions, exacerbating the uncertainty and instability of bilateral economic and trade relations,' it said. 'If the US insists on its own way and continues to damage China's interests, China will continue to take resolute and forceful measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests.' This came after Mr Trump said in a Truth Social post on Friday that China had 'TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US'. The president said he had agreed to a fast deal with Beijing to 'save them from what I thought was going to be a very bad situation'. 'So much for being Mr NICE GUY!' he added. Mr Trump told reporters he wanted to speak with Mr Xi to resolve their ongoing disputes. China, on the other side, accused Washington of violating trade agreements by issuing "export control guidelines for AI chips, stopping the sale of chip design software to China, and announcing the revocation" of visas for students from the Asian country. As tensions resurfaced, US treasury secretary Scott Bessent said on Sunday the negotiations with China were "a bit stalled'. "What China is doing is they are holding back products that are essential for the industrial supply chains of India, of Europe, and that is not what a reliable partner does," Mr Bessent told CBS News. He suggested that a phone call between Mr Trump and Mr Xi would be necessary to break the stalemate. Mr Trump had signaled his wish to have a phone call with Mr Xi as early as February and even said he was willing to visit his counterpart, although no such arrangement was scheduled.
