markets Experts War country With Assad challenged, a push to cut Syria's ties to Iran grows more unlikely

Israeli bombardment, while behind the scenes, the United States and Gulf countries courted him diplomatically. It was a secretive, two-pronged approach meant to pressure Syrian President Bashar Assad to abandon his most important regional alliance with Hezbollah and Iran. The overtures to Assad were the product of what Israel and its allies saw as a rare but risky opportunity: With Iran's regional network fracturing under Israeli attack, they hoped to force Iran's most important partner out of the alliance, according to former U.S. officials, two European diplomats and four Israeli officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject. Now, those regional ambitions may be derailed by a far smaller and long-discounted force: Resurgent rebels have launched a surprisingly successful attack in Syria, exploiting in part the strain Israel has put on the alliance that helped Assad maintain power through more than a decade of uprising and civil war. In a matter of days, the rebels seized most of the country's large city of Aleppo, and challenged Assad's grip on the country's northwest.

markets Provident Digital Software Food Experts Is India’s food inflation being measured correctly? EAC-PM member Nilesh Shah weighs in

Nilesh Shah, managing director and CEO of Kotak Mutual Fund, shared his views on the complexities surrounding food inflation and its role in economic policy during a recent event. Shah, also a part-time member of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister, questioned the way food inflation is being calculated and included in policymaking. Shah raised concerns about whether the free food distributed to over 80 crore Indians under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana (PMGKAY) is accounted for when measuring food inflation. The program, which provides free or subsidised food grains to a vast segment of the population, could impact the headline food inflation number, Shah suggested. «My only submission will be are we measuring food inflation correctly? For example, 80 crore Indians are provided free food. That cost is more than our fiscal deficit. Is the credit taken in food inflation?» said Shah while speaking at a Kotak MF event.

markets Digital Strategy economy Experts reports BofA paints robust picture for American economy, says US is more likely to export recessions than import them

Bank of America is betting heavily on behalf of the American economy as it has claimed that the US economy is poised for solid growth in the coming year, with chances that the annualized rate of economic growth could surge to 2.4% in 2025, instead of the usual 2% every other year, according to a Bloomberg report. The US economy-related predictions from Bank of America comes in even after there are growing concerns about Donald Trump's economic policies which are reportedly inflationary in nature. The various campaign promises about illegal immigration, imposing tariffs on foreign imports, along with tax cuts for corporations, could all pile up and generate a condition for an epic inflation in the American markets in 2025, according to many market experts.

markets COST Provident Strategy Sustainability trends Green fleets: Why more companies are opting for EV leasing over traditional ownership

This is a particularly notable trend in India. Currently valued at about USD 170 million, the EV leasing market is expected to develop at an astounding compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 73%, reaching USD 4–5 billion by 2030. The increasing popularity of EVs and the growing acceptance of leasing as a wise substitute for ownership are both factors contributing to this development. Whether it is last-mile delivery companies upgrading their fleets or enterprises looking to optimise operational costs, EV leasing offers compelling advantages. Managing capital and operational costs EV leasing addresses one of the most significant challenges businesses face: high upfront capital expenditure. Purchasing EVs typically requires a substantial down payment, ranging from 10–25% of the vehicle's cost. Leasing, in contrast, demands only a security deposit equivalent to 3–6 months of lease payments, enabling businesses to scale their fleets with minimal initial investment. This approach not only preserves cash flow but also provides predictable monthly expenses, simplifying financial planning.
