International Business

Exclusive: FBI counterintel investigating Ivanka Trump business deal

The FBI has been looking into the negotiations and financing surrounding Trump International Hotel and Tower in Vancouver, according to a US official and a former US official. The scrutiny could be a hurdle for the first daughter as she tries to obtain a full security clearance in her role as adviser to President Donald Trump.

Insurance

Are my investments insured?

Bank customers have enjoyed the security and protection provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) knowing their savings deposits are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government for up to $250,000 per account. However, those in search of higher returns who were willing to risk their money in the securities markets — for much of Wall Street's history — had virtually no protection of any kind, even from losses due to broker/dealer bankruptcy.

Logistics

Robo-logistics company Magazino raises $25M for its warehouse bots

German robotics firm Magazino, creator of robots meant to work alongside people in warehouses and the like, has raised $24.8 million to continue development and deployment of its TORU and SOTO robots.  

Management

What Your Opinion about Arming Teachers Says About Your Management

If you think arming teachers is the solution to gun violence, I bet your track record as a manager, especially a hiring manager, leaves much to be desired. You are probably the kind of manager who treats employees as interchangeable pawns. I suspect you hand employees new responsibilities just because they are handy and/or available. I am quite certain you expect everyone to adapt to new tools instantly. I bet you can’t figure out why your employees aren’t happy and thriving.
