As inflation continues to impact global economies, Asia-Pacific is the only region that will see real salary growth in 2023, according to ECA International. Growth in developing East Asia and Pacific is outpacing the rest of the world, but the region will likely see slower growth in 2024 amid headwinds in China and broader policy uncertainty, according to the World Bank. "It is a region that is still outperforming the rest of the world, but it is underachieving relative to its own potential," Aaditya Mattoo, East Asia and Pacific chief economist at the World Bank, told CNBC's "Street Signs Asia" on Monday. Growth in the region is expected to ease to 4.5% this year, slowing from last year's 5.1% expansion, according to the bank's East Asia and Pacific (EAP) update for 2024, which was released Monday. However, excluding China, growth in the region is predicted to reach 4.6% this year — higher than 4.4% in 2023.

This year, nine out of 12 places in Asia-Pacific received the highest real salary increases in the world, ECA International reported. Workers in Asia-Pacific are predicted to receive the biggest real pay increase in 2024, according to ECA International. The average real salary increase — which is nominal wage growth minus the rate of inflation — is expected to increase by 2.2% in Asia-Pacific, more than twice the global average of 1%, according to the Salary Trends Report. The North and South America region is expected to receive a 2% real salary growth, while Africa and the Middle East could see growth of 0.8%, the data consultancy said. Europe is set to lag behind most regions and employees there may only receive a 0.9% increment in real salary next year, the study showed.

BRUSSELS, June 19 (Reuters) - Europe is in danger of losing the race to become a global battery powerhouse as access to raw materials remains a major roadblock along with rising costs and fierce competition, a report by the European Court of Auditors (ECA) said on Monday. The ECA, the EU's independent external auditor, said nearly one in five new cars registered in the bloc in 2021 had an electrical plug. However, the EU's strategy has not taken into account the bloc's ability to meet this new battery demand. "The EU aspires to become a global battery powerhouse to ensure its economic sovereignty but will it succeed? China accounts for 76% of global battery production capacity.

MANCHESTER, England, May 17 (Reuters) - FIFA and the European Club Association (ECA) have loosened release date rules around when players can leave their club teams to prepare for this year's Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. Although the mandatory release date remains July 10 for players whose club have matches up to that date, players whose domestic seasons are completed can be released from June 23-29, four weeks before the tournament starts. "The consensus framework takes into consideration the existence of different playing seasons for leagues around the world," FIFA and the ECA said in a joint statement Wednesday. "This new framework strikes the all-important balance between players having sufficient rest while allowing adequate time to prepare for the World Cup."

Euro clubs' body wary of early Women's World Cup call-ups
  + stars: | 2023-04-27 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
April 27 (Reuters) - The European Club Association (ECA) said it is concerned about the "current widespread practice" of national federations calling up players for the Women's World Cup before the mandatory release period starts. The mandatory release date for the tournament is July 10, which is 10 days before the event kicks off in Australia and New Zealand. "The issue of early call-ups is a hangover from the game in its amateur form and is detrimental to the future success and growth of women's football." Several top players, including England captain Leah Williamson and Netherlands forward Vivianne Miedema, have been ruled out of the World Cup due to serious injuries.

Hong Kong has been named the most expensive location in Asia for business travelers — for the second year in a row, according to a new report. watch nowTokyo, which dropped from second- to third-most expensive city in Asia, also experienced a 5% rise in daily costs for business travelers in local currency terms. "With average daily costs of $424 per day [in Tokyo], business travel to the city is now almost 20% cheaper than first-placed Hong Kong."

REUTERS/Luc GnagoKINSHASA, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Around two dozen activists and sexual abuse victims demonstrated in Democratic Republic of Congo's capital on Thursday across the road from a cathedral where Pope Francis was meeting clergy. They held up placards, including some demanding that the pope meet with clergy abuse victims in the country. The demonstration in Kinshasa was organised by Ending Clergy Abuse (ECA), an international group, one of many that have been bringing attention to sexual abuse in the worldwide Church. There were no plans for the pope to meet with victims of sexual abuse in Congo, where about 50% of the population is Roman Catholic. The 86-year-old pope has met with many victims of sexual abuse, both in Rome and on foreign trips.
After months of debate, lawmakers are poised to pass major changes to the Electoral Count Act. They wanted the vice president to either delay the January 6 joint session of Congress and/or unilaterally find that the certified results of states in disputes were not legitimate. I think Vice President Pence … did exactly the right thing and previous vice presidents have done the same. Trump himself has suggested that by clarifying the Electoral Count Act, senators are implicitly suggesting that Pence could have had this power. In order for pro-Trump lawmakers to throw the election to the vice president, they still needed to file objections to the results.
CNN —The decisions taken by soccer bodies FIFA and UEFA to block the European Super League (ESL) are in line with European Union (EU) competition laws, according to an EU Opinion issued on Thursday. “The FIFA-UEFA rules under which any new competition is subject to prior approval are compatible with EU competition law,” Advocate General Athanasios Rantos at the EU Court of Justice (CJEU) said. The ESL was set up in 2021 by 12 European clubs with the intention to break away from European football governing body UEFA to create their very own competition. FIFA also welcomes the Advocate General’s recognition of FIFA’s exclusive rights to market international competitions organized by FIFA. Fans of Chelsea Football Club protest against the European Super League outside Stamford Bridge on April 20, 2021.

As inflation continues to impact global economies, Asia-Pacific will be the only region to see real salary growth in 2023, a new survey has found. That's compared to other regions which will see drops in average real salary, the report showed. With inflation increasing significantly in 2022, 78% of countries surveyed recorded a real salary decrease, and no European country saw a real-terms salary increase. Workers in China are also amongst "a small group globally" who will receive the highest rates of real salary growth this year and the next, Quane said.

В этом документе ECA изучила, как Европейская комиссия поддерживает государства-члены в расширении инфраструктуры зарядных станций, а также как она управляет европейским финансированием. Несмотря на успехи, такие как продвижение единого стандарта ЕС для зарядных розеток и улучшение доступа к различным зарядным сетям, все еще существуют препятствия для передвижения электромобилей по ЕС. Однако сети зарядки не развиваются такими же темпами. Согласно ECA, существует риск того, что цель создания одного миллиона точек зарядки для электромобилей к 2025 году не будет достигнута, если процесс установки продолжится в текущих темпах. Чтобы сократить разрыв, потребуется 150 000 новых точек зарядки каждый год, или почти 3000 точек в неделю.

În 2020, deşi per ansamblu s-a înregistrat o scădere a numărului de înmatriculări de autoturisme noi, ca urmare a pandemiei de COVID-19, cota de piaţă a vehiculelor electrice şi a celor hibride reîncărcabile a crescut semnificativ. „Anul trecut, unul din zece autoturisme vândute în UE a fost un vehicul electric cu sursă de alimentare externă, dar infrastructura de încărcare nu este accesibilă în aceeaşi măsură peste tot în UE. Potrivit ECA, există riscul ca obiectivul privind un milion de puncte de încărcare a automobilelor electrice până în 2025 să fie ratat dacă procesul de instalare continuă în ritmul actual. Pentru a recupera decalajul ar fi nevoie de 150.000 de noi puncte de încărcare în fiecare an, adică aproape 3.000 în fiecare săptămână. De exemplu, există puţine informaţii coordonate între diferitele reţele privind disponibilitatea în timp real, datele privind încărcarea şi detaliile de plată.
