NS&I to deploy SBS' cloud-native core system

Yahoo25-07-2025
The National Savings and Investments (NS&I), a government-owned savings bank in the UK, has partnered with global financial technology firm SBS to upgrade its core banking and payments systems.
This initiative is part of NS&I's Transformation Programme, which includes a contract with Atos, a digital transformation company.
In this context, SBS cited a report by Celent, which forecasts that European retail banks will increase their cloud investments by 57.5% by 2030, reaching a total of $12.6bn.
NS&I's internal infrastructure supports more than 24 million customers and manages changes to savings rates while addressing customer interactions.
The implementation of SBS's digital, cloud-native core banking platform is expected to enhance operational efficiencies, as well as improve product and service delivery for NS&I.
SBS CEO Eric Bierry said: 'NS&I's transformation program is evidence that it is possible for banks to execute this transformation—and doing so sets them up to drive otherwise unattainable efficiencies and experiences.'
In collaboration with Atos, IBM, and Sopra Steria, NS&I is working to digitise its retail banking operations.
The new SBP Digital Core platform from SBS will replace the existing core system, providing a cloud-native infrastructure for all retail banking and payment services.
The SBP Digital Core is a cloud-native, composable banking solution that utilises latest technology and data to enable banks to deliver personalised banking experiences while adhering to regulatory standards.
Transitioning to the SBP Digital Core will allow NS&I to leverage the flexibility and scalability of AWS's cloud environment, facilitating frequent adjustments to data storage and infrastructure as required.
Unlike traditional core systems, which are often difficult to update, SBS's cloud and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution provides regular automatic updates, according to the tech company.
NS&I chief operating officer Matt Smith said: 'NS&I's transformation programme will help to deliver the digital experiences that our customers expect, while still ensuring there is help and support for those who need it.'
The SBP Digital Core is part of a comprehensive suite of retail banking solutions offered by SBS.
These are utilised by more than 1,500 banks across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

Tariffs Reach Highest Level Since 1934 Under Trump Plan

Source: Anna Moneymaker / Getty The U.S. is heading into tariff territory not seen since the Great Depression, with new trade measures from former President Donald Trump set to take effect August 7. The result? A potential price spike on everything from shoes and wine to furniture and electronics. Under Trump's newly ordered tariff regime, the average tax on imported goods will jump to 18.3%, the highest since 1934, according to Yale's nonpartisan Budget Lab. The move targets 66 countries, the European Union, Taiwan, and even the Falkland Islands. Among the steepest penalties: 40% on imports from Laos, 39% on Swiss goods, and 30% on products from South Africa. While some countries, such as Cambodia and Bangladesh, saw reduced tariffs after negotiations, the overall trade landscape remains tense. A 35% tariff on Canadian goods begins immediately, while action against China and Mexico is delayed pending talks. A 50% tax on imported aluminum and steel remains in place. We care about your data. See our privacy policy. The Budget Lab estimates the average U.S. household could lose around $2,400 in purchasing power due to higher prices, with a short-term 1.8% jump in inflation expected. Items already affected include: Eyewear : Ray-Ban maker EssilorLuxottica has raised prices. : Ray-Ban maker EssilorLuxottica has raised prices. Wine : Expect up to 30% price hikes on European wines by September. : Expect up to on European wines by September. Shoes and apparel : With 97% of clothing and shoes imported , costs are expected to rise 5–10% this fall. : With , costs are expected to rise 5–10% this fall. Furniture, electronics, and appliances: Many of which include foreign-made steel or aluminum, are already showing price upticks. Retailers have largely absorbed tariff costs until now. 'The new tariffs will impact merchandise in the coming weeks,' said David French of the National Retail Federation. Smaller businesses are especially concerned about staying afloat. Matt Priest of the Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America warned that back-to-school prices are already climbing. And automakers, though slow to respond publicly, are feeling the pressure: General Motors expects to lose $4–5 billion this year due to tariff-related costs. Trump has pitched these tariffs as a strategy to boost U.S. manufacturing and trade fairness. Some of the new trade deals do include specific wins—like the EU agreeing to buy $750 billion in American energy and Vietnam pledging $2 billion in U.S. agricultural goods. But experts say those victories may be short-lived, and some trade partners—particularly China—could shift away from U.S. markets in the long term.

Noted Tesla analyst Adam Jonas moving into new role at Morgan Stanley

On Monday, Morgan Stanley announced that noted auto research analyst Adam Jonas will step into a new role at the firm. Save for a brief stint as a researcher at a European competitor, Jonas has been with Morgan Stanley since graduating from college, eventually working his way up to leading the bank's coverage of the automobile industry. With this latest move, Jonas will now focus on a wider artificial intelligence theme. "After nearly 30 years covering autos, I am pursuing an exciting opportunity within Morgan Stanley's research department focusing on physical/embodied AI (AVs, eVTOLs, space, humanoid robots, etc) leveraging the ideas and relationships from my talented research colleagues across public and private companies," Jonas said, according to an internal staff memo obtained by CNBC. Jonas gained notoriety across Wall Street for being a long-timeTesla bull. Early on, he laid out a broader vision for the electric vehicle company that encompassed autonomous robotaxis to justify Tesla's high valuation. The internal move was first reported by Bloomberg News. Bloomberg added that analyst Andrew Percoco will take over Morgan Stanley's coverage of the North American auto industry in coming months.

Italy fines Chinese retailer Shein $1M for 'deceptive' practices

Aug. 4 (UPI) -- Italian authorities on Monday announced Chinese global retailer Shein was fined over $1 million for allegedly "misleading" customers with "deceptive" advertising. The The Italian Competition Authority issued the fine of more than $1.1 million, to Infinite Styles Services Co. Limited, which is Shein's Dublin-based European manager. Italian officials accused the company of "misleading and/or deceptive environmental messages and claims." Shein claimed a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by some 25% by 2030, with a 2050 goal to reach net zero. The AGCM saidShein's proposal was "vague" and "generic." It further stated it was "even contradicted by an actual increase in Shein's greenhouse gas emissions in 2023 and 2024." The fashion online retailer sees an average of over 45 million monthly users just in Europe, according to EU officials. Last year in April, the Chinese-owned fashion app was forced to follow new but stricter rules under the European Commission's Digital Services Act after officials determined Shein was large enough to fall under the legislation. Italy is now the second European country in a little over a month to fine the company after France in July issued a $46 million penalty after its 11-month investigation. "Through its website and other promotional and/or informational online pages," Italy's AGCM said Monday, "the company disseminated environmental claims within the sections #SHEINTHEKNOW, evoluSHEIN, and Social Responsibility that were, in some instances, vague, generic." It added it was "and/or overly emphatic, and in others, misleading or omissive." The China-based company similar to Temu does not publicly disclose its earnings. However, a source told Bloomberg that in its first quarter that Shein's net income went up to over $400 million while revenue was at around $10 billion. It's said the higher profit margin was related to customers using to get ahead of new U.S. tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump. Copyright 2025 UPI News Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
