One of *those* fraud stories from Katie Tarrant. Absolutely horrendous details from start to finish. Give it a read, and give the tape a listen too. thetimes.com/article/bc0f57…

This is about private assets (private equity, private credit & infrastructure). The commitment (subject to important conditionalities) of signatory pension funds & asset managers to allocate 10% of AUM to these asset classes by 2030 - half of those (5%) being UK assets (3/n)

Absolute joy of a column by Claire Bushey on Chicago's Pope. The memes on here last Friday reminded me of good Twitter. Need to get me some of that OBVIOUS SHIRTS® merch. ft.com/content/98455d…

“You never know when you might see a bit of second-hand kit or a nice cow in someone else’s yard.” Spent Monday in the Weald of Kent, the most cash-resilient part of the UK since Covid, on why people still like a bit of paper money. thetimes.com/business-money…

Having pension funds invest in private assets is a much bigger debate than you can cover in one 1,000 word-ish article. But looking at some of the figures around recent performance, part of me wonders that if we were going to do this, whether we should’ve done it ten years ago.

I don’t know how you’d *ever* do it, and I’m not sure it’s the government’s place to regulate the generosity of parents, but, my scorching hot take is there’s increasingly a strong case on placing limits on the Bank of Mum and Dad.
