Overview

FED WARNS ON LACK OF UNITY BY REGULATORS: Regulators in the

United States are warning banks not to assume that countries

will cooperate to stop the failure of a big financial group such

as Lehman Brothers. (http://link.reuters.com/xum55t)

OSBORNE COOLS ON CHANGING INFLATION TARGET: Britain's

Finance Minister George Osborne is cooling to the idea of

changing the Bank of England's inflation target to one focused

on the amount of spending according to unnamed officials at the

Treasury. (http://link.reuters.com/hym55t)

BARCLAYS AND CREDIT SUISSE SET TO TEST WATER WITH NEW CLOs:

In the first such move since new regulations, both the banks are

preparing collateralised loan obligations, bundles of corporate

loans which boomed until the 2008 subprime crisis in the United

States, according to unidentified sources close to the deal. (http://link.reuters.com/vem55t)

US FACES FRESH FINANCIAL SHOCK: Spending cuts of $1.2

trillion are likely to go ahead as Republicans in Congress push

for reductions in spending at the Pentagon and on government

programmes in the face of Obama's objections. (http://link.reuters.com/wem55t)

production in the UK is expected to result in a trade deficit on

INTERVIEW WITH XSTRATA CHIEF EXECUTIVE MICK DAVIS: For

registered in 2012 via the International Patent Co-operation

Treaty, up more than 20 percent compared to 2011.(http://link.reuters.com/zem55t)
