Asian Business
SINGAPORE: Grab, the
biggest ride-hailing firm in Southeast Asia, is reported to be close to securing a deal with Uber
Technologies, which would see Grab buy out its US rival in parts of the region.
The two companies have been competing hard to gain control of the ride-hailing
market in Southeast Asia...
Insurance
The idea of investing
in green infrastructure—nature itself—is gaining momentum. Environmentalists
have long argued that preserving reefs, wetlands, forests, and other natural
ecosystems will provide important services to people, from improving air and water
quality to reducing the onshore impact of storms. But now people like me have a
powerful new ally on our side—business leaders and deal-makers
Retail
Retail is the top industry performer on the
S&P 500 so far this year. But, one market watcher calls the retail comeback
story misleading.
Supply Chain
ON THE WEBSITE of the Food and Drug Administration, there’s a page where the agency lists drugs that are in short
supply in the United States. Last week, there were 90 entries on the list:
antibiotics, drugs for anesthesia, compounds to light up veins and organs for
imaging, immunosuppressive to prevent organ rejection, tube-feeding solutions, and
sedatives. For every type of medical problem, an important drug is off the
market or in short supply—and this is routine.
