EU ministers back plan to cut flight delay compensation
EU transport ministers on Thursday voted to raise the threshold for airline compensation, meaning passengers could soon only be entitled to payouts after flight delays of four hours, instead of the current three. A majority of the ministers voted in favour of the change in Luxembourg, according to information from diplomatic circles obtained by dpa. The European Parliament can still make changes to the new rules. The four-hour rule is set to apply to distances of up to 3,500 kilometres. For longer flights, a six-hour limit is planned. Consumer advocates have warned that the change would result in significantly fewer passengers receiving compensation. According to the European Union's current Air Passenger Rights Regulation, passengers are entitled to compensation for delays of three hours or more, provided that the airline is at fault. The amount of compensation depends on the distance: €250 ($286) for flights up to 1,500 kilometres, €400 for flights up to 3,500 kilometres and €600 for long-haul flights exceeding 3,500 kilometres. The airlines argue that they are unable to provide a replacement aircraft and crew within three hours in many European locations, and that this can lead to additional flights being cancelled because the high compensation payments have already been incurred. Members of the European Parliament, who must still approve the new regulation, have expressed resistance to a change. Jan-Christoph Oetjen, of Germany's pro-business Free Democrats, said before the vote that he sees no reason to change the parliament's existing position. He expects it to maintain the three-hour requirement. Jens Gieseke, another German member of parliament, agreed: "As a parliament, we will not accept any deterioration of the status quo."

Scalable Capital raises $175m to enhance retail investment access in Europe
Digital investment platform Scalable Capital has raised €155m ($175m) in a funding round led by Sofina, an investment company, and Noteus Partners, a pan-European technology investor focused on growth equity. Existing investors Balderton Capital, Tencent, and HV Capital also participated, bringing the total investment in Scalable Capital to over €470m (more than $535m). Sofina managing director Maxence Tombeur said: 'Noteus is proud to support Scalable Capital as it continues to democratise retail investing in Germany and across Europe. 'With its vertically integrated investment offering and highly engaged customer base, the company is well positioned for long-term success. Late last year, Scalable Capital launched the European Investor Exchange, designed specifically for retail investors in Europe. The Scalable Broker recently introduced private equity investments through ELTIFs (European Long-Term Investment Fund), allowing eligible clients to invest alongside institutional investors such as insurance companies and pension funds. From this summer, Scalable will also offer kids' accounts, enabling parents to invest in their children's financial future through the Scalable Broker. Scalable Capital founder and co-CEO Florian Prucker said: 'Low-cost, broadly diversified ETFs, free access to financial knowledge, stock exchanges tailored for retail investors, and technology driven investment platforms like Scalable Capital have fundamentally improved access to capital markets for millions of retail investors. 'To accelerate this development, we will continue to invest in our fully verticalised platform with the additional capital.' Since its inception in 2015, Scalable Capital has offered retail investors access to cost-effective investment options, including ETFs, stocks, funds, bonds, cryptocurrencies, derivatives, and private equity. The company provides clients with competitive interest rates on cash through partner banks and instant access to low-cost securities-backed loans. In February this year, Scalable Capital announced that it is transforming digital investing in Germany by partnering with BlackRock to offer eligible investors access to private equity.
