Read previewGerman startup Ceezer, which helps companies plan, buy, and manage their carbon credit portfolio, has just raised 10.3 million euros, around $11.2 million, in Series A funding. Carbon credit marketplaces and accounting tools boomed in 2021 as large companies rushed to understand and offset their emissions. They were all vying for a slice of the projected $250 billion voluntary carbon market by 2050 , where private companies buy and sell carbon credits. Carbon credits are typically bought after achieving their stated impact, but this requires project developers to have cash upfront to get started, Drewelies said. AdvertisementThe fresh funding, led by HV Capital, will be used to launch new financial products so that project developers can unlock pre-financing.

A "Now Hiring" sign is displayed in front of a Chipotle restaurant on October 07, 2022 in Washington, DC. Hundreds of thousands of restaurant jobs disappeared as bars and eateries shuttered, either temporarily or permanently. But even before Covid, restaurants struggled to hire and retain younger workers, who often seek internships instead. Chipotle on Wednesday also touted new benefits that aim to help those younger workers tackle financial challenges. Additionally, Chipotle workers can also sign up for a Credi.ai debit card, which builds credit without fees or interest.

The first step of building a new financial budget is usually taking a detailed account of what you are spending. Recording where resources are being allocated is key to understanding what exactly you need to shift about your habits. The same can be said if you want to change how you prioritize your time as it pertains to personal goals, says Rainer Strack, senior partner emeritus at Boston Consulting Group. "Time is the only asset that we can't multiply," Strack tells CNBC Make It. It's a scarce resource, and therefore, you have to understand what you want to do with this kind of resource, concretely."

☆ Everton Faces Second Points Penalty in New Financial Case
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-15 | by ( Tariq Panja | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: 1 min

Everton, which tumbled down the Premier League standings after receiving a record 10-point deduction in November, faces the prospect of a second points penalty for new violations of the competition’s financial regulations. Everton confirmed the new case in a statement on Monday, as did a second team, Nottingham Forest, that was charged with its own violations of the league’s so-called profit and sustainability regulations. The rules were drawn up to keep teams from overspending and risking their financial futures to maintain their places in the Premier League, one of the world’s richest domestic sporting competitions. The Premier League said the cases would be heard by separate, closed-door commissions operating independent of the league. Those commissions, it said, would determine any penalties, which could include fines, points deductions or other restrictions.

In this year's gleaming host city of Dubai, billboards advertise the benefits of wind energy, climate ambition and Exxon Mobil's (XOM.N) carbon capture projects. This is seen by some as a sign of success and by others as a dangerous distraction from the business of combating climate change as over nearly three decades global oil demand, carbon emissions and temperatures have marched steadily upward. "It's a lobby fest where polluters can schmooze with politicians, all under the guise of tackling climate change," Pascoe Sabido, a researcher at the Corporate Europe Observatory, which scrutinizes corporate influence on policy-making, said.

Dec 4 (Reuters) - Oilfield services firm Petrofac Ltd (PFC.L) said on Monday it was in discussions over the sale of its non-core assets and that it will no longer be able to meet its full-year guidance of "broadly neutral free cash flow" due to payment delays. "While the group has made progress in reaching contractual settlements and unwinding working capital, given delays in securing advance payment guarantees, it no longer expects to receive these advances before the year-end," Petrofac said in a statement. The company added it is exploring potential new financial options across all its classes of capital, and is actively engaged in discussions with investors to take a non-controlling position in certain other components of its business portfolio. Last week, shares in London-listed Petrofac dropped to a record low as analysts flagged concerns over its balance sheet due to payment delays.

An Emirati financial firm is planning to invest at least $30 billion in a new climate fund in partnership with some of the biggest names in North American finance, according to three people familiar with the plans. The move comes as the United Arab Emirates, this year’s host of the annual United Nations climate talks that opened in Dubai on Thursday, is under pressure to prove it is committed to tackling global warming despite the fact that its economy is based on oil production. Lunate Capital, a new financial firm overseen by the Abu Dhabi royal family, launched just months ago with at least $50 billion in assets. On Friday, Lunate is expected to announce it will set up the new climate fund with a handful of prominent asset managers including TPG, BlackRock and Brookfield Asset Management, the three people said.

You can keep your Apple Savings Account until we know what happens next or switch to another high-yield savings account. How the end of this partnership impacts Apple Savings Account usersIf Apple and Goldman Sachs part ways, Apple would need to partner with a new financial institution to continue to offer the Apple Savings Account. You might prefer an alternative high-yield savings account if you need to take money out of your savings account often. The Apple Savings Account only lets you transfer money through Apple Cash or an external bank account, which could take a few business days. The best high-yield savings accounts pay significantly more than standard savings accounts, and some pay more than the Apple Savings Account.

It would also mean that Apple would need to find a new financial partner for its popular credit card, Apple Card, and its high-yield savings accounts under the Apple brand. While Apple offers both its credit card and savings account through the wallet app on iPhones, the banking backend is handled by Goldman Sachs. When Apple first launched the Apple Card in 2019, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon was in attendance at a glitzy Apple launch event at its California campus. But the partnership has been rocky in recent years as Goldman Sachs, under CEO David Solomon, has retreated from its previous consumer banking ambitions as costs stacked up. Earlier this year, Goldman Sachs said that it would "consider strategic alternatives" for its consumer banking business.

BEIJING, Nov 21 (Reuters) - China's Central Financial Commission (CFC), a new regulator with Premier Li Qiang as its head, held a meeting on Monday and urged stronger supervision of risks in the financial sector as Beijing accelerates efforts to become a "major financial power". The CFC was set up for the top-level design, development and supervision of the financial sector, strengthening "unified leadership on financial work", according to a restructuring plan published by state media in March this year. The CFC has recruited many officials from the central bank and the finance ministry, financial news outlet Caixin reported earlier this month. The appointments indicate that both officials, who are close confidants of President Xi Jinping, will play important roles in shaping China's financial policies. He was also appointed as party chief of a separate Central Financial Work Commission (CFWC), which has been set up to strengthen the ideological and political role of the party in China's overall financial system.

WASHINGTON, Nov 14 (Reuters Breakingviews) - The U.S. economy is coming in for landing. Inflation is easing even as growth looks strong, but Americans are bracing for new financial pain. The year-over-year rate of price increases stood at 3.2% in October, barely above the Federal Reserve’s goal, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said Tuesday. Inflation expectations rose to 4.2% in October from 3.2% the month prior, according to the University of Michigan. Even as McDonald’s (MCD.N) beat profit estimates on Oct. 30, boss Christopher Kempczinski flagged that lower-income consumers are pulling back.

☆ Yellen supports 'significant' capital increase for IDB's private sector arm

Yellen, who hosted a breakfast for leaders from the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity before a White House summit, said Treasury strongly supported efforts by IDB President Ilan Goldfajn to reform the regional development bank's private sector arm, IDB Invest, and backed a capital increase for it. "My team at Treasury is working closely with President (Ilan) Goldfajn and IDB Group shareholders to define the policy reforms and financial scenarios that would enable a significant capital increase for IDB Invest," she said. Yellen told an IDB conference on Thursday that additional capital would help increase IDB Invest's impact and ability to better mobilize private capital to the region, as APEP partners work to shift supply chains away from China and expand "nearshoring" options closer to home. Yellen also said on Thursday that the "originate-to-share" approach adopted by IDB Invest CEO James Scriven was pioneering a new way for multilateral development banks (MDBs) to leverage private sector capital, an innovation being closely watched by others. The move by IDB follows efforts by China to increase its influence in Latin America, through increased direct lending to Latin American governments and boosting trade ties to resource-rich South American countries.
