Europes biggest bank hsbc has just released its latest earnings, reporting better than expected profits and announcing its Ceo Noel Quinn has decided to retire. Something of a surprise departure, mr quinn has overseen sweeping changes at the bank in his five years in the topjob. Hsbc said it has already launched a formal process to find a successor. The bank which makes most of its profits in asia posted a pre tax profit of 12. 7 bilion for the january to march period. For a closer look at todays announcement, i am joined by peter hahn, emeritus professor at the London Institute of banking finance. Nice to see you. Are you surprised to hear that noel quinn is now going to retire . Not necessarily surprised. I dont know what his personal reasons were. But i think the big issue for hsbc is that seems these transitions are usually quite competent for them. Its predecessor did not last very long. Weve gone through number of prior one who was there for longer. But it is a big dealfor hsbc. They are trying to find through the successor will be because, as he noted, it may bes bank but it is really an asian bank that is headquartered in london. Absolutely. Its biggest market is hong kong. It has pivoted towards asia to make more money. Thats proved to be a fairly good plan, investing some 6 billion between 2021 and 3251 just asia. Very much his strategy but also he had to navigate the problem of a big, Big Shareholder who wanted to disrupt hsbc and amass the age of that. He sorted that out that he has been a good pair of hands stop what is the thing about him . Bulimba has very much to stabilise the ship that was rocky when hejoined. The bank looks, id like to say it looks a bit more boring today which is good. Its got rid some of its more international problems.

Its now the only Big Tech Firm that doesnt after arthur but did it last week. Of course, traders are also keeping a watchful eye on the Federal Reserve and chair jerome powell, the model Inflation Picture has some asking our rate cuts cancelled or simply delayed. If it is widely accepted to leave Interest Rates unchanged with its two day Policy Meeting and on wednesday. It does indeed. Lets talk about the today meeting on the part of the Federal Reserve. What will we learn if anything about when the worlds most powerful central bank will start to cut Interest Rates . To find out, im joined by mike coop from morningstar investment management. Hello to you. Interestingly in the last week some of the big banks around the world and others are really changing their thinking now on when rates might come down in the us. What are you saying at morningstar . It us. What are you saying at morningstar . Us. What are you saying at morningstar . It is pretty clear that markets morningstar . It is pretty clear that markets got morningstar . It is pretty clear that markets got way morningstar . It is pretty clear that markets got way ahead i morningstar . It is pretty clear| that markets got way ahead of themselves in pricing and really large, really quick reductions in Interest Rates, so weve seen the last few months is that markets have stepped back and reacted to the data by reducing expectations. What we need to look at really is just to recognise how restrictive Monetary Policy is to start with, so we are sitting here, with Interest Rates in the us and federal funds are between five five and five and a half and latest cpi was 3. 5. Weve had Interest Rates over 5 to 12 months so youre looking at real Interest Rates are over 2 and the clock is ticking. Thats having an effect on the economy. The Inflation Trends have been down. This more recent period has been about the cost of shelter, so rents and also gas, being a bit higher than expected. But its more really about the markets getting way ahead of themselves. The fed themselves were saying that actually they werent going to respond aggressively to the fallen inflation last year and they would try to look through some of the bumps in the data and we expect the same now. Qm. And we expect the same now. Ok, so lets be and we expect the same now. Ok, so lets be quite and we expect the same now. Ok, so lets be quite specific. Do you believe then that Interest Rates will be cut in 2024, say, towards the end of year, or will it next year . We towards the end of year, or will it next year . Towards the end of year, or will it next year . We think on current data, will it next year . We think on current data, there will it next year . We think on current data, there will will it next year . We think on current data, there will be. Current data, there will be read cuts later on this year and we will think that the trends will reinforce the case for continuing to do that. Gill for continuing to do that. All riuht. For continuing to do that. All right. Thank you for that very short response which is just what we needed, see you again soon. Thank you and have a good day, mike coop from morningstar investment management. Around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. Lets continue with the business coverage. To the green transition now and the race for the Raw Materials critical to powering a cleaner future.

Were going to take a look at the prices of cooking oils today, which are set to go up again this year. Currently the price of olive oil is historically high as a result of drought in Southern Europe and now further pressure is coming from flooded land ruining british rapeseed crops, resulting in a potential drop of as much as 38 in this years uk Vegetable Oil harvest.

We had a late planting season at the end of last year and terrible Weather Conditions so one of the worst weathers since 1836. Its notjust in the uk, we sing the same conditions in across europe so already we are going to lose around 2 million tons of rapeseed across europe. Tt around 2 million tons of rapeseed across europe. It will be another rapeseed across europe. It will be another tough rapeseed across europe. It will be another tough year rapeseed across europe. It will be another tough year with be another tough year with prices going up the oil presumably because we saw that with olive oil and 2022. Immediate and in bed terrible problems for last two years. One thing that we can do in terms of the rapeseed is important significant amounts from other parts of the world including ukraine and australia so there is a balancing effect, the less we produce here, the more we have to import, its not a good situation. More we have to import, its not a good situation. How can farmers adapt not a good situation. How can farmers adapt to not a good situation. How can farmers adapt to this not a good situation.

Yet more pressure on food prices as youve been hearing. I want to reiterate the Breaking News from hsbc, the profits coming in strongly but she is executive noel quinn has announced he is to retire. He has been the ceo of hsbc for five years. He has many, would argue, navigated europes biggest bank through some pretty tricky times. They are looking for a successor. See you soon. Hello there. Monday brought some bright and breezy conditions for some of us, and in the sunshine it felt pleasantly warm, particularly if you had a little bit of shelter. In fact, we saw temperatures around 17 degrees through east anglia and down into the london area. It was a very different story furtherwest, however. Cloud and Rain Lingered for much of the day and in some spots we had just shy of half an inch of rain. Now, if we take a look at whats going to come through tuesday, it will be a similar kind of story. Unfortunately, out to the west well see quite a lot of cloud and some outbreaks of rain. Clearer skies further east and with lighter winds well see a little more in the way of sunshine. So showery rain across south west england, wales and into Northern Ireland through the morning. That low pressure not moving very far, so itll stay rather grey and damp. We could see a few scattered showers across east anglia and South East England into the afternoon. But sandwiched in between the two, a lovely slice of sunshine. Temperatures will respond, the high teens quite widely here. Even in the cloud and rain, well, well see temperatures mid teens for some. Some improvement into Northern Ireland. Western scotland keeps a few scattered showers, but eastern Scotland A Little Bit cooler with a breeze coming in off the sea, but it will be largely dry and sunny. So that low pressure just pulls a little bit further out to the west and the Wind Direction changes to more of a South Easterly. Now, to start off with on wednesday itll be a relatively mild start but that South Easterly breeze, well, that could just drive in a little more cloud in off the north sea and the potential for some showery rain to drift its way along those east coast once again. So west will be best on wednesday in terms of sunshine and potentially in terms of warmth. So we could still once again see temperatures into the mid to high teens quite widely. Now, as we move out of wednesday, towards the end of the week, the weather story gets a little bit messy. Its likely that that Weather Front could still enhance some showers across central and southern england. The low pressure never too far away with the best of the drier, brighter weather the further north. We are always going to keep those temperatures, though, slightly above the average for the time of year. But still, that wind coming in from the east. So at times we will be chasing cloud amounts around. There will be some outbreaks of rain, but itll stay relatively mild into the bank holiday weekend.
