Advocates of Britain's exit from the European Union presented it as an opportunity to sweep aside unnecessary rules and regulations that were holding back economic growth. Key to this is a plan to replicate the "Big Bang," the wave of deregulation in 1986 that turned the City of London into a global finance hub. The idea is to relax rules originally drawn up for 28 EU nations to make the country's exchanges, banks, brokers and insurance firms more competitive, allowing them to grab a bigger shar

When Donald Trump was elected US president in 2016, he rode a new wave of populism that saw upstarts upsetting the established order to win power in democracies around the globe. Voters ejected Trump in 2020 after a single term, but neither his political influence nor the broader movement went away. Not all the candidates he endorsed in the November congressional, state and local elections won, but some did, and Trump proceeded with an announcement that he'd run for president again in 2024. Else

Ghana is learning the hard way why oil can be a blessing and a curse.

Skittish investors offloaded Ghana's bonds and currency, the cedi, amid doubts over its ability to settle its debts. The concern proved to be well-founded: In late November, the government said international bond holders would be as

One of the biggest challenges facing the post-pandemic world is how to tame inflation. After governments spent freely to offset the economic fallout of the Covid-19 pandemic, prices began to climb at the fastest pace in decades and central banks embarked on the most aggressive and synchronized monetary policy tightening in 40 years. When prices surge, people can afford less, businesses struggle to control costs and, in extreme cases, political revolutions are born.

Consequently, interbank liquidity -- the pool of Hong Kong dollars in the system -- shrank rapidly as the city fought to maintain the peg, drawing market attention and concern ab
