QIA ready to boost its UK investments – Qatar Investment
Authority (QIA) – the country’s sovereign wealth fund that
controls assets worth $100bn – stated that it is interested in
boosting its investments in the UK after acquiring stakes in
British companies such as Barclays and J Sainsbury. QIA’s
CEO Ahmad al-Sayed said that Qatar is now focusing on real
estate, commodities and infrastructure investments. QIA has
diversified from energy production with assets including the
Harrods department store in London and stakes in banks such
as Barclays and Credit Suisse Group. The sovereign wealth
fund also played a pivotal role in Glencore International’s $29bn
takeover of Xstrata in 2012 after demanding the Swiss
commodities trader to boost its offer. (Gulf-Time.com)

US Senate Banking panel postpones Fed Chair hearing;
Obama nominates new Treasury undersecretary – The US
Senate Banking Committee said that it has deferred Thursday's
hearing with the Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen. This
postponement is due to a severe snowstorm expected in the
Washington D.C. area. The committee said the hearing, in which
Yellen is due to deliver the semi-annual monetary policy report
to Congress, would be rescheduled for a later date. Meanwhile,
the US President Barack Obama has named economist Nathan
Sheets as the US Treasury Department's top international
official. Sheets – who has worked at Citigroup and the Federal
Reserve – would play a key role in US financial diplomacy and
help shape international discussions if his nomination is
confirmed by the Senate. Meanwhile, Obama has also named
Mark Sobel as US Executive Director at the International
Monetary Fund. (Reuters)
US January budget deficit smaller than expected – The
United States posted a smaller budget deficit than expected in
January 2014, a sign that a stronger economy is helping the
government coffers through a rise in tax receipts. The US
Treasury Department said the federal government had a budget
deficit of $10.4bn last month, while analysts polled by Reuters
expected a deficit of $27.5bn. (Reuters)
BoE points to 2015 rate rise, blurs guidance – The Bank of
England (BoE) said interest rates in Britain could increase from
their record lows in little more than a year as the country’s
economy witnesses a rapid recovery. The BoE Governor Mark
Carney – who was forced to ditch a previous version of rates
guidance after it was overtaken by a sharp fall in unemployment
– also announced the central bank would now follow a much
broader range of measures of slack in the economy in making
interest rate decisions. The BoE slashed interest rates to 0.5%
at the height of the financial crisis in 2009. The British economy
bounced back strongly last year, but remains weaker than
before the crisis, so Carney stressed any increase in rates
would be gradual. (Reuters)
China trust assets surge to $1.8tn amid default concern –
China’s trust assets surged 46% in 2013 to a record 10.9tn
Yuan ($1.8 tn), underscoring investor interest in products that
pay more than bank deposits even as default risks mount. The
China Trustee Association said around 20bn Yuan of trust
products had repayment difficulties in 2012, accounting for
0.27% of the industry’s assets at that time. The association
reassured that the asset quality is quite sound and systemic
risks is impossible with 9.06bn Yuan of reserves set aside.

SocGen chief sees EU move to ban prop trades foundering
– The head of France's Societe Generale said European
Commission moves to ban top EU banks from market bets with
their own money will run out of momentum once this year's
health check on the sector shows it is in sound shape. Such an
outcome would be a victory for the French view that European
banks have drawn lessons from the financial crisis and should
now be given more regulatory room to compete with their foreign
rivals, notably from the US. (Reuters)

GPCA: GCC petrochemicals set for export surge – The Gulf
Petrochemicals & Chemicals Association (GPCA) has predicted
that the petrochemical industry in the GCC region is set to
Page 3 of 5
4. increase its exports in 2014 due to the World Trade
Organization's (WTO) Bali Package. The Trade Facilitation
Agreement, adopted in Bali at the end of 2013, creates binding
commitments among member countries to increase their
customs efficiency and revenue collection by reducing
bureaucratic procedures. The WTO expects this agreement to
benefit the world economy to the tune of $400bn and $1tn, since
costs of trade are set to decrease by 10-15%. According to
GPCA, WTO’s Bali Package reducing export barriers against the
Gulf petrochemical industry will benefit this export-oriented
sector by 2H2014. (GulfBase.com)
