US reneging on Aukus submarine deal ‘would cost UK billions'
Britain would have to spend billions more pounds building its own submarines if the Aukus deal collapses, sources have said. President Trump's administration has thrown into doubt the future of the pact, struck between Britain, the US and Australia to build nuclear-powered attack submarines. The Labour government announced last week that it planned to build up to 12 of the submarines, which will come into service in the late 2030s, as part of the deal agreed in 2021. However, two sources close to Aukus said UK costs would rise by 60 per cent if the pact crumbled and Australia pulled out of the deal too. Producing a dozen submarines could be unrealistic given financial pressures, they warned. 'You can see a route to the point where the UK ends up with half of what it wants at a higher price,' said one of the sources.

Asic cracks down on 'finfluencers'
ASIC has issued warning notices to 18 social media 'finfluencers' suspected of unlawfully promoting high-risk financial products and providing unlicensed financial advice to Australians as part of a Global Week of Action Against Unlawful Finfluencers by nine international market regulators. 0 Last week, ASIC and regulators from the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Italy, Hong Kong and Canada took coordinated actions to crack down on unauthorised finfluencers. Together, the nine regulators used a combination of regulatory and enforcement powers including arrests, warning notices, website takedowns, educational schemes with authorised finfluencers and consumer awareness programs to put unauthorised finfluencers on notice and warn consumers of the risks of unauthorised and misleading finfluencer content. ASIC Commissioner Alan Kirkland said, 'Regulators across the world have joined forces to disrupt unlawful finfluencer activity.' 'It's important that consumers separate fun from fact when it comes to finfluencer content. Popularity doesn't equal credibility. Check their credentials and whether they're licensed or authorised, before checking your money out.' Following the issuance of INFO Sheet 269 Discussing financial products and services online (INFO 269) in 2022, ASIC has observed a noticeable drop in social media posts spruiking financial products and services by unauthorised finfluencers. 'In Australia, after ASIC issued INFO 269, we saw that many finfluencers changed what they were saying or became licensed or authorised representatives to comply with the law,' Mr Kirkland added. 'Australian Financial Services licensees who engage influencers also improved their due diligence and monitoring of finfluencers to ensure they don't provide unlicensed financial services and that consumers are not misled.' ASIC's current concerns lie with finfluencers positioning themselves as so-called trading experts, who are providing unauthorised financial product advice and promoting high-risk, complex investment products that can cause real consumer harm, such as contracts for difference (CFDs) and over the counter (OTC) derivative products. Their social media content is often accompanied by misleading or deceptive representations about the prospects of success from the products or trading strategies they promote, sharing images of lavish lifestyles, sportscars and other luxury goods. 'We are seeing a pattern where these unlicensed finfluencers invite consumers to join their closed communities or forums to learn their secrets to success or copy their trades,' Mr Kirkland said. If a finfluencer is not licensed, an authorised representative or exempt, they're legally not permitted to carry on a business of providing investment advice in Australia. Investors and consumers can check the credentials of finfluencers out by using ASIC's professional registers search tool. Recent Moneysmart research found that 41% of young Australians seek financial information or advice from online sources such as social media, including finfluencers. 'Australia's financial services laws protect investors and promote market integrity. They set minimum requirements and provide important protections for investors if something goes wrong. 'If you spruik or discuss financial products and services online, you need to carefully consider how the law applies to you and seek legal advice if you are unsure,' Mr Kirkland said. ASIC conducts targeted monitoring of financial discussion by finfluencers that feature or promote financial products. Where we see harm occurring, we will take action to enforce the law. Unlicensed activity can be reported to ASIC on our How to report misconduct webpage or by calling 1300 300 630 so that we can consider appropriate regulatory action. Background In addition to ASIC, the nine regulators involved in the Global Week of Action Against Unlawful Finfluencers included: Canada, Alberta Securities Commission Canada, Autorité des marchés financiers, Quebec, Canada, British Columbia Securities Commission Canada, Ontario Securities Commission Hong Kong, Securities and Futures Commission Italy, Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa United Arab Emirates, Securities and Commodities Authority United Kingdom, Financial Conduct Authority ASIC issued INFO 269 in March 2022 for social media influencers who discuss financial products and services online. The licensing provisions under the Corporations Act 2001 (the Act) apply to persons who carry on a financial services business in Australia. This includes persons who provide financial product advice or arrange for a person to deal in a financial product. Carrying on an unlicensed financial services business in Australia is an offence under the Act, unless authorised as a representative of a licensee or relying on an exemption. The Act imposes significant penalties, including up to five years' imprisonment for an individual and financial penalties into the millions of dollars for a corporation. The law also prohibits conduct that is misleading or deceptive, or is likely to mislead or deceive, in relation to financial products or services. A finfluencer does not need to be licensed to breach the misleading or deceptive prohibitions. In December 2022, the Federal Court found social media finfluencer Tyson Robert Scholz contravened s911A of the Corporations Act by carrying on a financial service business (between March 2020 and November 2021) without an Australian financial services licence (22-371MR).

Proposed Macquarie University restructure will ‘hollow out' humanities, academics say
Academics have accused Macquarie University of 'hollowing out' the humanities after the institution announced a restructure that would halve some arts faculties and drastically reduce course offerings for some degrees. Under the proposed changes, seen by Guardian Australia, 42 full-time equivalent academic roles in the Faculty of Arts and 33 in the Faculty of Science and Engineering would be cut, making about $15m in net savings. Curriculum changes would be made in 2026 and 2027, with mergers and reductions largely attributed to low enrolment figures. The proposal, released to staff on 3 June, said the prospect of international student caps and 'uncertainty' in domestic student growth meant Australian universities could no longer rely on boosting enrolments to ensure financial sustainability. 'The objective of the changes … is to resize the workforce in areas where current staff profile and capacity is not aligned to student demand.' Staff have less than a month to provide feedback about the cuts. A final decision is expected to be made in early July. A spokesperson for Macquarie said the proposed curriculum changes were designed to ensure education remained 'transformative' for students. 'The needs of employers and students are evolving and universities, including Macquarie, need to adapt to modern demands,' they said. 'While we are preserving traditional humanities subjects such as history, philosophy, and English literature, we are at the same time offering majors and courses that are focused on employability and meeting areas of student interest and demand.' Sign up for Guardian Australia's breaking news email President of the National Tertiary Education Union (NTEU) and academic at Macquarie, Dr Alison Barnes, said she had been receiving 'constant calls' from academics worried about changes at their institutions. More than a dozen universities are undergoing restructuring, including ANU, UTS, Western Sydney University and the University of Wollongong. The NTEU estimated that more than 1,000 roles were on the line, less than five years after more than 17,000 job cuts during the pandemic – or 13% of the workforce. 'Another round of job cuts is extremely damaging to people's wellbeing, they're living with systemic uncertainty,' Barnes said. 'It's also having a corrosive impact on students. They need to be able to study things that they are inherently interested in.' At Macquarie, ancient history and archaeology, creative arts, politics and international relations and the school of sociology would all lose up to, or more than, half of their FTE staff, while media and communications – which jointly operates the 2SER radio station with the University of Technology, Sydney – would be reduced by about one quarter under the proposed changes. Majors would also be discontinued in a string of study areas including politics, gender studies and performing arts, while a number of bachelor degrees would be abolished, including music, ancient history and archeology – which would be incorporated into a new bachelor of history. The number of media majors would also be reduced from six to three. Ten new research positions would be created in science and engineering, and two in education. Barnes said it 'shocked' her that the humanities was being particularly targeted. 'It's this hollowing out of our institutions. You've got people who've worked their entire lives in these disciplines, and then that knowledge is lost, which is why I think these decisions are so incredibly damaging and shortsighted. 'It's a travesty, and it's heartbreaking.' Acting president of the Australian Historical Association (AHA), Prof Kate Fullagar, said the cuts were part of the 'ongoing devaluation' of humanities at Macquarie and most Australian universities. 'What we're most concerned about is the reduction in unit offerings and staff – ancient history has been massively depleted, and that sector was clearly the best in the country,' she said. Sign up to Breaking News Australia Get the most important news as it breaks after newsletter promotion 'It took Macquarie 40 or 50 years to build up … it's the university's own investment that they're undermining, and it just seems like recklessness. 'Inevitably, what will happen is that with less offerings and less choices for the students, numbers go down, and then you get into this horrible cycle where they cut you further.' In an email sent to Macquarie students on 3 June, the deputy vice-chancellor (academic), Prof Rorden Wilkinson, said students may notice a 'more focused structure' to their course, major or units from 2026. 'The units you choose from will be based on the best education offerings in each faculty,' he wrote. 'Your study choices will be clearer. The curriculum you study will be more purposeful. Your pathway to graduation will be easier.' Associate professor in the department of history and archaeology at Macquarie, Paul McKechnie, who has worked at the university for almost 20 years, said it would be challenging to adequately cover teaching with 'so few staff'. McKechnie said he was 'skeptical' about Macquarie's claims that the cuts were being made because of falling student numbers. A change paper seen by Guardian Australia, which was published by the university and distributed to staff, last year, showed the arts generated $133m in annual profit but cost $48.6m to run. The vice-chancellor of Macquarie, Prof Bruce Dowton, said universities in Western democracies were facing a 'range of external pressures' and Australia was no exception. Macquarie has run a deficit for five of the past six years, including a $4m loss in 2024. It cut its workforce in 2020 and 2021 around the time of the Covid-19 pandemic. 'We understand that changes of this nature can be unsettling, and we do not take them lightly,' Dowton said. 'Our community can be assured that we are proposing these changes because they are needed.' NTEU branch president for Macquarie, and senior lecturer in quantitative sociology, Nicholas Harrigan, said the cuts were a 'disgrace'. 'That is simply stealing from students,' he said. The spokesperson said the proposed changes were the result of 'careful planning and reflection'. They said teaching overall was 'generally financially sustainable' but that wasn't 'uniformly true'. 'Courses and units with low enrolments are generally more likely to be loss-making after all costs are fully allocated,' they said. 'Strategic realignment allows us to focus on areas of sustainable strength, invest in emerging disciplines, and make choices to safeguard our future.'
