Economics and Politics cannot be separated. A wonderful discussion with @clydeprestowitz to talk US-China, geopolitics and economics on his visit to #Singapore. Told him how much I enjoy his comments on @niubi Sinocism.
#ESG in Action: #Malaysia #palmoil output will likely drop by 5% to 8% in Nov after heavy rains and floods disrupted plantation operations.
Why important to include Physical Risk of Climate Change in investment decision making.

Risk of bifurcated and vulcanised world still remains with US-China relations post #G20. Limiting technology bans to legitimate security interests understandable, but if more restrictive will be concerning. @LawrenceWongST @business #NewEconomyForum

#ESG collides with business and government. Investors and businesses cannot ignore the E v S trade-off anymore. My Op Ed for @ecobusinesscom @RobinHicks_ @ApacAdvisors eco-business.com/opinion/esg…

My early call -- though don't say how early -- on @CNBC with @teymoornabili up now. I follow my rule that if going on TV, say something. And if you are going to be wrong, be loud wrong. (My thought then was PA and NV each flip and Ds hold the rest.)

America and Democracy won (to quote #Biden). #Trump lost. Still, he might declare for ‘24 to stay ahead of #IndictTrumpNow With #GOP in charge of House, get ready for the #China hearings. On a panel with @RossFeingold on @rthk_enews on #Midterms. rthk.hk/radio/radio3/program…

Most consequential #MidTerms for #Asia. If #Trump anointed candidates win and #Republicans take over the Senate, an #AmericaFirst POTUS more likely in 2024, changing foreign policy calculus in the region. @SteveLaiCNA @JulieYooCNA @lgflake

Determining material ESG factors and being transparent about their impacts, both from risk and opportunity, prevents #greenwashing. Don't cherry pick.
Ads of @HSBC banned for #greenwashing
If you significantly finance investments in businesses that emit notable levels of CO2 and other #greenhouse gasses, you can't just talk about your tree planting. @MarketingEds Jancie Tan #ESG #sustainability

Rents skyrocket in #Singapore with it now Asia's financial center. My friends rejoicing when their rent only goes up 35% -- doubling for expats not an outlier.

SE Asia overtakes #China for private capital exits per @GPCapital_org. Exits on deals from SE Asia up a whopping 736% YoY. Investments in #India and SE Asia also increasing with #venturecapital driving the boom.
#Singapore leads way for #Web3 in the region.
