King footing bill for Beatrice and Eugenie, and Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh subletting among findings A report that revealed Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received undisclosed private income from subletting three cottages on his Royal Lodge estate in Windsor while paying a peppercorn rent to the crown estate also shines a spotlight on the property arrangements of other members of the royal family. The National Audit Office findings include the revelation that King Charles foots the bill for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie’s accommodation in royal palaces, despite both being “non-working royals” (in that they don’t carry out royal duties), and that the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh also benefited from subletting their crown estate property.

French billionaire Pierre-Edouard Sterin, who has stirred controversy over his right-wing politics, is pleading with lawmakers to modify rules so he can disinherit his five children, saying he prefers to give his fortune to charity. “I would like to give my entire estate to philanthropic causes,” the businessman told senators on Thursday during a public hearing, noting that under French law three quarters of his assets would have to be passed down to his offspring. “I’m in favour of being able...
As India sees incessant FII selloff so far this year, the government and RBI announced a slew of measures to ease foreign investments in government securities, with analysts suggesting that these may provide some short-term support for Dalal Street.India scrapped the long-term capital gains tax on investments by foreign institutional investors (FIIs) in government securities through an ordinance issued on Friday. The government has now exempted FIIs from tax on any interest income from government securities, as well as capital gains arising from their sale, exchange or transfer, according to an official gazette. Separately, while announcing the outcome of the MPC meeting, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra also unveiled a series of measures to boost FPI investments, including expanding the Fully Accessible Route (FAR) to cover new issuances of 15-, 30- and 40-year government bonds.Limits on investments by NRIs and OCIs in equity instruments without Sebi registration are being raised, allowing them to invest larger amounts without regulatory registration. The facility is also proposed to be extended to all Persons Resident Outside India (PROIs), bringing them on par with NRIs and OCIs. This came as the RBI kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.25%What does this mean for Indian stock market?The proposal to increase investment limits for NRIs and OCIs in listed equity instruments without Sebi registration, and to extend the same facility to all individual Persons Resident Outside India (PROIs), is a significant step toward broadening participation in Indian capital markets, which is expected to improve market depth, liquidity and long-term capital inflows, said Arun Poddar, CEO of Choice International.He highlighted that equally important is the removal of capital gains tax on government securities investments for foreign investors. “This move strengthens the attractiveness of India's bond market and could encourage greater foreign participation in government debt. At a time of heightened global volatility, these measures reinforce investor confidence, support capital inflows, and reaffirm India's commitment to building deeper, more globally integrated financial markets, with the policy rate expected to remain low for an extended period,” he said.The government's move to exempt Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) from capital gains tax on any interest earned from government securities is “highly positive” for the capital markets, said Sumit Singhania, Head of Research at Bajaj Broking. “This fiscal cushion arrives at a crucial time, offering a strong shield to domestic markets as the RBI chief warned of volatile forex markets driven by shifting global sentiments,” he added.The policy is distinctly positive for bond markets and well-capitalized Banks and NBFCs, which benefit from targeted hedging subsidies and systemic stability, according to Archit Doshi, Senior Vice President at PL (Prabhudas Lilladher) AMC. “Conversely, one should be underweight rate-sensitive sectors, which remain highly vulnerable to margin compression, higher inflation expectations, and the threat of the RBI reaching its tightening tipping point,” he said.Rajeev Radhakrishnan, CFA, CIO of Fixed Income at SBI Mutual Fund, also said that the announcements aimed at enabling more dollar inflows are more significant in the near term, even though the overall policy stance has been broadly in line with expectations. “The concessional swap facility should help stabilise short end market rates and the foreign exchange market in the near term,” he said.For equities and debt markets, the measures to attract FII inflows are supportive of liquidity and inflows, while for the rupee, they signal a clear intent to anchor expectations and reduce volatility amid global oil shocks and sustained foreign selling pressure, said Ajit Mishra, Senior VP of Research at Religare Broking.Sachin Bajaj, Chief Investment Officer at Axis Max Life Insurance, also said that the initiatives are expected to support capital inflows, deepen domestic bond markets, and provide support to the Indian rupee over the short to medium term.RBI’s hawkish tone and the Indian stock marketWhile the measures taken to attract FII inflows in the debt market will likely provide short-term support for Dalal Street, analysts advised caution over the RBI’s hawkish policy stance. While the RBI maintained its policy repo rate as per expectations, the tone was much more cautious than in previous meetings.Sachin Bajaj highlighted that the policy emphasised preserving macroeconomic stability amid the prevailing global macroeconomic environment. “We believe there are significant risks to inflation in the coming months due to the pass-through of higher commodity prices to consumers and elevated food prices resulting from a below-normal monsoon. Going forward, there is a risk of an upward revision in inflation projections, and given the evolving global backdrop, we believe the RBI is likely to maintain a prudent, data-dependent approach. Future policy actions will be contingent on evolving growth-inflation dynamics and global developments,” he added.Also read: Explained: Sebi's Rs 15.15 lakh crore revenue inflation allegations against Rajesh ExportsWhile hawkish rhetoric without an accompanying rate hike provides a temporary respite for equity markets, it does not constitute an unequivocal endorsement of investment, particularly in highly rate-sensitive sectors such as real estate, automotive, and consumer discretionary goods, said Vipul Bhowar, Senior Director, Head of Equities at Waterfield Advisors.“Should inflation necessitate a rate increase later this year, these sectors are likely to experience pressure on both margins and demand. For investors, the current strategy emphasises capital preservation by focusing on high-quality equities with strong pricing power. This cautious approach is designed to navigate the prevailing geopolitical uncertainties until conditions stabilise,” the analyst added.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

United States President Donald Trump is used to getting his own way with Republican lawmakers— but there are signs of dissent as his party nervously eyes the looming midterm elections. From a vote against the Iran war to dissent over his $1.8 billion “anti-weaponisation fund” and costly White House ballroom, the nearly 80-year-old president has faced growing pushback. It comes as Trump faces record-low approval ratings 500 days into his second term, deepening Republican fears that they could lose control of Congress in November’s midterms. Billionaire Trump, the only president in American history to be impeached twice, has himself warned that he could face a third impeachment if that happens. “Republicans are looking at their own polls and discovering that Trump is turning into a drag on their reelection chances,” Larry Sabato, a political scientist at the University of Virginia, told AFP. Trump himself has begun to appear increasingly bored with the political battles, preferring to talk about grand projects closer to his real-estate-developer heart. But Republicans worry that his focus on pet projects — like an Ultimate Fighting Championship bout at the White House on his June 14 birthday —make him look out of touch. ‘Grandstanders!’ The biggest rebuke to Trump came on Thursday when the House of Representatives backed a resolution seeking to halt the increasingly drawn-out US military action against Iran. Trump on Friday lashed out on social media at the “unpatriotic” move and blasted four members of the Republican majority who crossed the floor to vote with rival Democrats as “GRANDSTANDERS!” Since his extraordinary return to power in January 2025, Trump has largely exerted an iron grip over the Republican Party. The party has, in turn, largely subsumed itself to Trump’s wishes and to the goals of his “Make America Great Movement”. There have been blips, particularly over the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, when lawmakers voted to release files related to the late sex offender. But the economic fallout from the Iran war has deepened recent unease among Republicans about defending Trump’s priorities when voters are worried about the cost of living. In the USA Today newspaper, columnist Rex Huppke said that Republicans were “starting to show the faintest signs of embryonic spines”. Some of the most controversial of those priorities were front and centre as the US Senate embarked on a raft of votes on Thursday. One of those was the proposed fund for Trump’s allies who claim they were unfairly targeted by the government, dubbed a “slush fund” by critics and provoking outrage among some Republicans. The Trump administration said the plan was being dropped earlier this week after a judge ruled against it, but Trump himself indicated on Wednesday that he was still keen on it. ‘Defections can matter’ Another controversial issue — a demand for $1bn for security for Trump’s new White House ballroom — was dropped before it could be voted on. Two of Trump’s recent personnel changes have also sparked dissent among Republican ranks. His choice of relatively junior housing official Bill Pulte to be the new US national intelligence chief has led to threats from some lawmakers to scuttle efforts to renew a powerful surveillance program. Trump insisted on Thursday that Pulte’s appointment was a stopgap, although it is one of his favourite tactics to use a temporary nomination to avoid a messy confirmation by the Senate. A bid to nominate his former personal lawyer Todd Blanche as the US attorney general could run into similar trouble. While the cracks may be showing, Trump’s hold over most Republicans remains clear. Trump has thrown his weight around by successfully backing MAGA candidates over Republican incumbents who defied him in several — very expensive — primaries. But that could also eventually work against him, said Sabato. “He defeated or forced into retirement several senators and representatives. In essence, he publicly humiliated them, and so now they aren’t inclined to do Trump any favours,” he said. “Congress is closely divided in both chambers, and a few defections can matter.”
De Britse oud-prins Andrew heeft inkomsten ontvangen uit de verhuur van drie woningen op het terrein van Royal Lodge, de koninklijke residentie bij Windsor waar hij jarenlang woonde. Dat blijkt uit een nieuw rapport van de Britse rekenkamer NAO. De instantie deed voor het eerst in twintig jaar onderzoek naar de huisvesting van leden van de koninklijke familie. Andrew huurde Royal Lodge van het Crown Estate, de organisatie die een groot deel van de bezittingen van de Britse monarchie beheert. Volgens het rapport mocht hij drie woningen op het terrein onderverhuren. Dat deed hij tot april van dit jaar. Hoeveel huurinkomsten dat opleverde, wordt niet vermeld. Volgens bronnen rond Buckingham Palace werden de woningen verhuurd aan medewerkers of oud-medewerkers en waren de inkomsten bedoeld om de kosten van het beheer te dekken. De opbrengsten kwamen terecht bij Andrew en niet bij het Crown Estate. Het rapport benadrukt dat er geen aanwijzingen zijn voor onrechtmatig handelen door Andrew. Koning betaalt huur Hoewel Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor eerder dit jaar Royal Lodge verliet en verhuisde naar Sandringham in Norfolk, loopt zijn huurcontract voor de woning nog tot oktober 2026. Toen hij de woning in gebruik nam, betaalde hij volgens het rapport 7,5 miljoen pond voor herstel- en renovatiewerkzaamheden. Daarom hoefde hij daarna geen maandelijkse huur meer te betalen. De rekenkamer onderzocht in totaal twaalf woningen die werden gebruikt door Andrew, zijn familie en medewerkers. Uit het onderzoek blijkt verder dat de koning de huur betaalt van woningen die Andrews dochters Beatrice en Eugenie gebruiken in respectievelijk St James's Palace en Kensington Palace, twee koninklijke paleizen in Londen. Meer openheid De prinsessen zijn geen werkende leden van het koningshuis. De huur wordt betaald uit het privévermogen van de koning. Volgens Buckingham Palace dekken die betalingen de kosten van de woningen, zodat er geen extra beroep wordt gedaan op publieke middelen. Hoeveel huur er wordt betaald, wordt niet in het rapport vermeld. De bevindingen van de rekenkamer worden later besproken door de parlementaire commissie die toezicht houdt op overheidsuitgaven. Buckingham Palace zegt dat het onderzoek past bij de wens om meer openheid te geven over het gebruik van koninklijke woningen. Misbruik positie De voormalige prins werd eerder dit jaar gearresteerd na beschuldigingen dat hij als speciaal gezant overheidsrapporten met de omstreden Amerikaanse miljardair en zedendelinquent Jeffrey Epstein had gedeeld. Door zijn betrokkenheid bij schandalen rondom Epstein raakte hij vorig jaar al zijn koninklijke titels kwijt, waardoor hij tegenwoordig door het leven gaat als Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
In today’s newsletter: Global powers are focused on oil markets and elections but those living through conflict in the Middle East feel abandoned Good morning. It’s been another week of brinkmanship via Truth Social and ceasefires broken before they’ve been announced.

India's RERA Act has revolutionized real estate by mandating project registration, transparent disclosures, and escrow accounts to prevent fund diversion.

Newly appointed Competition Commission chairman Jat Sew-tong on Friday said the body hopes to come up with proposed amendments to the Competition Ordinance regarding bid-rigging within this legislative year. This comes after bid-rigging over a building maintenance project was suspected to have taken place at the Wang Fuk Court housing estate in Tai Po where a massive blaze last year claimed 168 lives. Jat, who took office in May, said the commission is considering different ways to improve the law, such as through introducing criminal liability or increasing civil penalties. “We are looking at all possibilities to see how we could make the ordinance effective and have a sufficient deterrent effect to this kind of behaviour and we hope we could achieve a situation where this kind of behaviour would no longer continue,” he said. The barrister noted that the government has already included a "non-collusion" clause in large-scale renovation project tenders as a way to prevent bid-rigging. “I understand that the government may consider making a requirement that in tenders of that kind, the non-collusion clause will be in the form of a statutory declaration,” he said. “Whoever puts in the tender will have to make a statutory declaration that they are doing it independently, without collusion with any other party. Therefore, making that statutory declaration would by itself attract criminal liability if it is a false declaration.” Jat also said that from July, members of the public will be allowed to attend part of the commission's meetings, as a way to enhance transparency. He said the body is open to suggestions as to how it can carry out its work better. Edited by Thomas McAlinden
