Posted by admin

in News

By David Milliken LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's top central bank officials look set to remain divided this week over whether to pull the plug on their 875 billion-pound ($1.2 trillion) government bond purchase programme, after inflation hit its highest in nearly two years.

Economists expect Haldane to retain this stance when the BoE announces its latest policy decision on Thursday and are looking to see if...

in News

By Patturaja Murugaboopathy and Simon Jessop LONDON (Reuters) - Scientists say the world needs to cut greenhouse gas emissions by at least 45% by 2030 to have any hope of meeting Paris Agreement targets for the middle of the century and averting catastrophic warming. Yet 41 of the world's 250 biggest corporate emitters - or 16% - are only just starting to assess their emissions, with no reduction targets set for any year, an analysis of data from research firm Signal Climate Analytics found.

Posted by admin

in News
