The Chris Paul Collective Enters Next Stage of Growth in Los Angeles
Founded and led by Paul, the Collective unites his business and philanthropic ventures under one roof and appoints David Schwab as first President to help scale the portfolio alongside its leadership team LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In Los Angeles, where Chris Paul plays, works, and builds, The Chris Paul Collective is entering its next stage of growth—uniting his business and philanthropic ventures under one roof and expanding their reach. Founded and led by Paul, the Collective spans consumer products, basketball, media, investments, events, and community impact. Its verticals include Paul's NBA business operations; CP3, LLC; Good Eat'n, his rapidly growing snack brand; Los Angeles-based production company Ohh Dip!!! Entertainment, which he co-owns with Words + Pictures; The Chris Paul Family Foundation; and CP3 Investments. Rounding out the portfolio is The Playbook Group, a grassroots events and experiential business that runs tournaments, academy programs, and camps all over the country where Paul has mentored countless young athletes, coaches, and NBA players. Now, to fuel this next chapter, the Collective has appointed David Schwab as its first President—a new leadership role created to scale the ecosystem Paul and his team have been building since day one. He will work alongside Chris; CP3, LLC President CJ Paul—who has led the business since the start; senior leaders Carmen Wilson and Jacqueline Taylor; and a network of trusted business partners to expand strategic partnerships, strengthen operations, and pursue new opportunities that reflect Paul's values of leadership, excellence, and impact. All of this comes as Paul begins his 21st NBA season with the Los Angeles Clippers, returning to the franchise where he earned five NBA All-Star selections and continuing a career that now spans three decades. Paul is a 12-time NBA All-Star, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and nine-time NBA All-Defensive Team selection who ranks second all-time in career assists and steals. As the longest-serving President of the National Basketball Players Association (2013–2021), he played a pivotal role in reshaping the modern NBA — championing player empowerment and expanding economic opportunity. He is also a New York Times best-selling author and a recipient of the ESPN Humanitarian of the Year award. Off the court, Paul has built a dynamic business and philanthropic ecosystem rooted in quality, equity, and innovation. Schwab joins with more than 25 years of leadership experience at Octagon, a global sports and entertainment agency. He was the founder of First Call, one of the industry's earliest influencer marketing divisions, which facilitated thousands of brand and celebrity partnerships across sports, entertainment, and culture. A trusted advisor to Fortune 500s, startups, nonprofits, and athlete-led ventures, Schwab operates at the intersection of brand strategy and business growth—known for spotting what's next, challenging the status quo, and helping organizations scale with purpose. 'Basketball will always be at my core, but as I continue building across business and philanthropy, it's important to work alongside dedicated, talented people,' said Paul. 'David's experience in scaling and leadership will help us build on the strong foundation our team has established. Together, we'll grow in ways that stay true to who we are and focus on what matters—meaningful work in business, in our communities, and for the next generation. And doing it here in Los Angeles—back on the court, surrounded by my family, and at the center of so much of my business—makes it even more special.' 'Chris has an unmatched work ethic and a mindset that elevates everyone around him,' said Schwab. 'He's the kind of person you want to build with—relentless, thoughtful, and values-driven. What makes this opportunity special is that Chris brings the same intensity and care to business and community impact as he does to basketball—and he's surrounded by a strong, trusted team that's been with him for years.'

Dutch payments firm Adyen trims forecast as US tariffs hurt customers
The Adyen logo is seen at the reception desk of the company's headquarters in Amsterdam, Netherlands August 24, 2018. Picture taken August 24, 2018. REUTERS/Eva Plevier/ File Photo (Reuters) -Adyen cut its annual revenue forecast on Thursday, citing U.S. tariffs hurting the growth of the Dutch payment company's customers. The Amsterdam-based firm's shares were down 9.2% by 1331 GMT, after falling as much as 20.5% earlier in the session. Adyen said the slight acceleration in net revenue growth it expected this year now appeared "unlikely." But it reaffirmed its midterm target of an annual net revenue percentage growth in the twenties, up to and including 2026. A broader client base and global reach has helped Adyen weather shifts in consumer spending better than peers like Worldline and Nexi. But that international exposure also leaves it vulnerable to currency volatility and trade tensions. "The part that we see going less well ... is what we call market volume growth, so the growth of our own customers," finance chief Ethan Tandowsky told Reuters, when asked about the impact of tariffs and the end of de minimis exemption. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump scrapped the "de minimis" duty exemption that allowed low-value commercial shipments to be sent to the U.S. without tariffs, hitting ecommerce platforms like eBay, one of Adyen's biggest clients. "We expect earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) margin to expand in 2025, albeit at a more moderate rate than in 2024," Adyen said. Adyen's half-year net revenue missed market expectations despite a 20% yearly rise, standing at 1.09 billion euros ($1.27 billion) against the 1.11 billion euros expected by 16 analysts polled by LSEG. Its half-year EBITDA also missed estimates, coming in at 543.7 million euros; analysts had forecast around 550.8 million euros on average. KBC Securities analysts called the semester "underwhelming" and said it may pressure the company's shares.

CPO Futures Down On Profit-taking, B50 Delay & Weak China Vegoil Prices
CPO Futures Down On Profit-taking, B50 Delay & Weak China Vegoil Prices By Rosemarie Khoo Mohd Sani KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 14 (Bernama) -- The crude palm oil (CPO) futures contract on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives (BMD) closed lower on Thursday, pressured by profit-taking following calls by an Indonesian industry group to delay the B50 biodiesel mandate. According to reports, the Indonesian Palm Oil Association cited supply constraints, noting that meeting the 50 per cent palm oil blend requirement would need a sharp rise in CPO output. This would divert supplies from the export market and reduce revenue from export taxes which are used to subsidise the biodiesel programme. The B50 mandate is a national initiative aimed at reducing fuel imports and cutting carbon emissions. It requires a 50 per cent blend of palm oil-based biodiesel with fossil diesel fuel. Mumbai-based Sunvin Group commodity research head Anilkumar Bagani said the market was also weighed by losses in rapeseed oil futures on the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange, as well as weaker palm oil and soybean oil futures in China. 'The stronger Malaysian ringgit has also put pressure on ringgit-denominated prices,' he added. Anilkumar noted that any delay in implementing the B50 mandate would 'take out a lot of bullishness from the palm oil market.' Meanwhile, palm oil trader David Ng said market sentiment was further dampened by concerns over weak demand in the coming weeks, following the recent price rally and seasonally high production levels. 'We see prices supported at RM4,350 per tonne and resistance at RM4,450 per tonne,' he added. At the close, the spot-month August 2025 and September 2025 contracts fell RM29 each to RM4,338 per tonne and RM4,358 per tonne, respectively, while October 2025 decreased RM32 to RM4,403 per tonne. The November 2025 contract shed RM34 to RM4,436 per tonne, December 2025 dropped RM39 to RM4,450 per tonne, and January 2026 declined RM35 to RM4,451 per tonne. Trading volume slid to 88,920 lots from 97,321 lots on Wednesday, while open interest rose to 244,194 contracts from 236,360 contracts yesterday. The physical CPO price for August South fell RM20 to RM4,370 per tonne. -- BERNAMA
