Way Beyond The Onion World Bank Edition
This guy is dangerous. He seems to forget Sweden is a Sovereign State and likely just because Sweden once was home to ex Nam objectors (due to no extradition treaty) he thinks they can be told what to do. Their land and their borders are sacrosanct and the reality is that immigrants need to be vetted and allowed to settle where they choose once they pass the necessary requirements rather than be to told here's your ghetto. I suggest he annexes his back garden to allow a settlement to be created. What? no?? People like this should not be in positions of power the next thing is they will suggest everyone gets chipped.

Sweden could solve their migrant problem by creating a new state-within-a-state where national laws don’t apply and sending thousands of migrants and so-called refugees there, the incoming chief economist of the influential World Bank has said.
Paul Romer, director of New York University’s Stern School of Business Urbanisation Project, made the remarks about his unusual approach to Sweden’s migrant crisis this week in an interview with the national newspaper Dagens Nyhter. Suggesting the zone could model itself on British Hong Kong, the senior economist said it could bring enormous benefit at no cost to the taxpayer.
Explaining his plan, the economist said: “The refugee issue is a huge problem, but there are possible solutions. Sweden, a sparsely populated country, could rent out a land area the size of Hong Kong.
“That could take millions of people who would support themselves, and not have to cost anything… It is important that this free zone should be considered independent, with its own laws and rules, and not as part of Sweden.

Few market participants were expecting the FOMC to raise on Wednesday. Sentiment was correct as the Federal Reserve kept its key Fed Funds target range steady at 0.25-0.50%. The markets had been running very low odds on a rate hike. What did surprise traders was that FOMC members significantly marked lower their interest rate forecasts for 2017...

But the timing of the president’s veto is designed to erode congressional support for the bill and put off a politically damaging override vote until after the November elections. Obama waited until the very end of the 10-day period he had to issue a veto, hoping to buy time to lobby members of Congress against the measure.
More details:
White House officials also hope congressional leaders will leave Washington to hit the campaign trail before trying for an override, kicking a vote to the lame-duck session after the election.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Hillary Clinton's former chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, and two other staff members were granted immunity deals in exchange for their cooperation in the now-closed FBI investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server as secretary of state, says a Republican congressman.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, told The Associated Press on Friday that Mills gave federal investigators access to her laptop on the condition that what they found couldn't be used against her.
By including the emails recovered from the laptops in the immunity agreements, the Justice Department exempted key physical evidence from any potential criminal case against the aides.
"No wonder they couldn't prosecute a case," said Chaffetz, R-Utah. "They were handing out immunity deals like candy."
The revelation brings the total number of people who were granted immunity as part of the FBI's investigation to at least five.

Classic case which I am sure will go down in teaching annals was Vodafone getting out of Verizon then transferring everything into Sterling at 1.57. Great trade not. They missed out on future value of Verizon and they lost out on FX benefit. The problem is that so many companies hedge far too late and too little. Their borrowing requirements are met when needed IE funded take-overs. In a positive sloping yield curve referred to as a normal curve there is every reason to borrow short and lend long so long as there is plenty of liquidity available which frequently is determined on the basis of credit quality

Deutsche Bank's compliance in for bumpy journey: executive
Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) still needs time to improve compliance and clamp down on the malpractice that has cost it billions of euros in fines, the executive in charge of the effort said.
"I need at least another year or so to complete the set up," Chief Regulatory Officer Sylvie Matherat told Reuters in an interview published on Friday, adding that by year-end the bank will employ 2,200 people in compliance and anti-financial crime, 60 percent more than in 2014.
Nine years after the financial crisis broke, Deutsche Bank is still struggling to put in place new structures to prevent the lender from being ensnared in fresh scandals and costly litigation.
"If you really want to solve a problem in a sustainable manner, it will take longer and will be more difficult," Matherat said.
"The current management team is trying not to do quick fixes. It's much better to clean up properly. But that takes time and the journey can sometimes get a bit bumpy," she added.

"Sterling slipped back towards $1.30 on Friday, ending the week in much the same place as it started, with worries over Britain's exit from the European Union keeping pressure on the currency.
The pound had jumped back over $1.31 on Thursday, after Bank of England policymaker Kristen Forbes said she saw no case for a further cut in interest rates, after the Bank slashed them to a record low of 0.25 percent last month.
But it slipped later in the day and continued to struggle on Friday, after British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said he expected the formal divorce proceedings between Britain and the EU to begin early next year, and that two years may not be needed to negotiate a deal..."
