Trump may call Xi 'very soon' to revive stalled trade talks, says US Treasury chief
WASHINGTON: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Sunday that President Donald Trump could speak with China's Xi Jinping "very soon," and that such a call could help break the logjam in the trade talks between the world's two biggest economies. Trump on Friday accused Beijing of violating a deal reached last month in Geneva – negotiated by Bessent – to temporarily lower staggeringly high tariffs they had imposed on each other, in a pause to last 90 days. China's slow-walking on export license approvals for rare earths and other elements needed to make cars and chips have fuelled US frustration, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday – a concern since confirmed by US officials. But Bessent seemed to take the pressure down a notch, telling CBS's "Face the Nation" that the gaps could be bridged. "I'm confident that when President Trump and Party Chairman Xi have a call that this will be ironed out," Bessent said, however noting that China was "withholding some of the products that they agreed to release during our agreement." When asked if rare earths were one of those products, Bessent said, "Yes." "Maybe it's a glitch in the Chinese system. Maybe it's intentional. We'll see after the president speaks with" Xi, he said. On when a Trump-Xi call could take place, Bessent said: "I believe we will see something very soon." Since Trump returned to the presidency, he has slapped sweeping tariffs on most US trading partners, with especially high rates on Chinese imports. New tit-for-tat levies on both sides reached three digits before the de-escalation this month, where Washington agreed to temporarily reduce additional tariffs on Chinese imports from 145 per cent to 30 per cent. China, meanwhile, lowered its added duties from 125 per cent to 10 per cent. In an interview with ABC's "This Week," Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said China was "slow-rolling the deal," adding: "We are taking certain actions to show them what it feels like on the other side of that equation." "Our president understands what to do. He's going to go work it out," Lutnick said.--AFP

HSBC to close its US business banking unit to simplify operations
HSBC is exiting its business banking portfolio in the United States, as it continued to simplify operations and shift its focus to Asia and Middle East markets. 'Following a strategic review of our business, we have decided to exit our Business Banking portfolio in the United States,' it said in a statement. 'We are supporting impacted clients while they transition to a suitable alternative provider and will retain some clients in our Mid-Market and Global Network Banking business,' it added. The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that HSBC's move would affect about 4,500 clients. The UK-headquartered lender has been reducing its global footprint in an attempt to boost profits and expand in Asia and Middle East markets. The bank said in January it would wind down M&A and some equities businesses in the Americas and Europe. The Wall Street Journal said HSBC laid off 40 employees in the U.S. business banking division. HSBC declined to comment, In 2021, the bank said it was withdrawing from U.S. mass market retail banking by selling some parts of the money-losing business and winding down others. It sold its Canadian business to Royal Bank of Canada in 2022 for C$13.5 billion.
