ECB's Lagarde says she's determined to complete her term
FRANKFURT (Reuters) -European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said on Thursday she was determined to complete her term at the ECB, following speculation she might leave early to take up a role leading the World Economic Forum (WEF). "I can very firmly tell you that I have always been, and I am, fully determined to deliver on my mission, and I'm determined to complete my term," Lagarde told her regular news conference following the ECB's interest rate decision. Former WEF head Klaus Schwab was recently quoted by the Financial Times as saying he had met Lagarde to discuss the prospect of her leaving the ECB early to lead the Swiss-based organisation, best-known for its winter conference in Davos. An ECB spokesperson said at the time that Lagarde was determined to complete her eight-year presidential term, which runs out at the end of October 2027. Founder Schwab resigned with immediate effect in April and the WEF said it had launched an investigation into his affairs following a whistleblower letter alleging misconduct. Schwab denies the allegations.

Gillette maker Procter & Gamble to cut 7,000 jobs in two-year overhaul
The company behind Gillette and Pampers has announced plans to cut up to 7,000 jobs over the next two years as part of a restructuring programme. US-based Procter & Gamble (P&G) unveiled the plans during a strategy update on Thursday. The multinational manufacturing giant said it would be reducing its current non-manufacturing workforce by about 15%. The 7,000 affected roles represent about 6% of its total workforce. The two-year restructuring programme will help it make changes resulting in 'efficiencies, faster innovation, and cost reduction', according to the firm. P&G said it was not currently specifying how the plans would affect local staff, including which regions or roles would be impacted. The Ohio-based company hired about 108,000 employees at the end of June last year. Around half of those were in manufacturing roles, and more than a quarter were based in the US. It makes a range of household brands including Ariel, Oral-B, Always and Tampax, and hair care brands Head & Shoulders and Herbal Essences. P&G recently said it was exposed to risks in the global economic environment, including new and increased tariffs, particularly between the US and China. This is because its products are sold in countries around the world so it is likely to be affected by increased costs for importing goods. It has said it could continue to raise prices on some brands to mitigate the impact of cost increases, which it admitted could have a knock-on effect on demand and sales.
