Who is Jane Fraser? The Scottish banker who has just become the first female boss of Wall Street
It was 2015, and high-flying Scottish banker Jane Fraser had a public relations problem. The executive had just been put in charge of Latin American operations for Citigroup, America's third-biggest bank, and was facing a sexist backlash in the Mexican press as a female foreigner. Some bosses might have tried to out-machismo the country's testosterone-charged business elite - but instead Ms Fraser decided to embrace her feminine side. "My husband took me out, he said 'We're going to buy an elegant red dress, slightly higher heels than you're used to, and a new haircut, and you're going to stride on the stage," she said later in a CNN podcast. "He knew that if I could stride out there and be quite comfortable in who I am, and confident around that and transmitting something that was, 'I am who I am,' that that would be a benefit." That self-awareness has now paid off. The 53-year-old has just been named the next chief executive of Citi , the world's largest credit-card issuer … [Read more...] about Who is Jane Fraser?

Emmerdale spoilers: Cain Dingle makes shock decision about dying mum Faith
WHILE his sister Chas has been beside herself, Cain Dingle remains seemingly indifferent to Faith's cancer. But the Emmerdale tough man softens next week and has a progressive change of heart.

‘Wordle’ #378 clues, hints and answers for Saturday, July 2
They say there is "no pain, no gain," especially when you are racking your brain, but Newsweek is here to help you get over the line if you find today's Wordle a tad tricky. The aim may be deceptively simple but still able to tie you in knots, as players have six attempts to get a five-letter word. If you get a correct letter in the right place, the tile goes green, if it is in the word but in the wrong place, it goes yellow. Any letter not in the word goes gray and so can be discounted. Whether you have succeeded or failed, a box pops up on screen at the end of the game for you to share if you want to boast about your achievement, or perhaps keep to yourself if you didn't get there. The game refreshes each day when players can try their hand again. The word game is the brainchild of engineer Josh Wardle, who came up with the concept with his partner Palak Shah in 2013. The game was perfected when the COVID lockdown concentrated minds with Shah honing the thousands of … [Read more...] about ‘Wordle’ #378 clues, hints and answers for Saturday, July 2

The True Meaning of ‘No Trespass’
I always pined for the wide open, though I grew up in suburban Maryland, hemmed in by private land and no trespass signs. Even as a boy, one with his nose in books, I knew that the East had not always been so parceled into private fiefdoms. In fact, it had once been a place where anyone could roam, more open than the West is today. It was not until years later, though, when researching a scholarly article, that I learned a clue as to why America had abandoned a centuries-long tradition and given landowners the power to close off access to so much of the country. I kept running across the same date: 1865. As obviously significant as that date is in U.S. history, the Civil War was not a conflict between ranchers and farmers. Evidently, something else was at work. Only when I dug into the records of South Carolina did an answer begin to take shape. Before 1865, from the colonial period onward, the only case of pure trespass in the modern sense that I could find nationwide came … [Read more...] about The True Meaning of ‘No Trespass’
Bosses hit out at plans to fine and ban directors for accounting errors
Bosses have lashed out at a government plan to impose fines and bans on directors for inaccuracies in their companies’ accounts, claiming it will add an unwanted burden to strained firms and deter qualified candidates from joining boards. Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng is preparing to publish long-awaited proposals to clean up the audit industry and improve the quality of company accounts following scandals at the likes of Carillion and Patisserie Valerie . A swathe of prominent business figures questioned whether the changes would place an unreasonable burden on directors and protect auditors from being held accountable. Sir Martin Sorrell, founder of advertising firm S4 Capital, said it did not make sense to “strangle initiative” at companies trying to survive the pandemic. Charlie Mullins, chairman and founder of Pimlico Plumbers, said: “What’s the point of having auditors to sign off accounts if they’re going to make directors do porridge or pay huge fines when … [Read more...] about Bosses hit out at plans to fine and ban directors for accounting errors

Josh Taylor vacates WBC world title to pave way for rematch with Brit rival Jack Catterall then sends cheeky tweet
JOSH TAYLOR has vacated another of his world light-welterweight titles for a rematch against Brit rival Jack Catterall. Taylor overcame Catterall, 29, in Glasgow in February this year following a hotly-disputed split decision and there has been a clamour for a return bout. Many felt that Catterall was robbed of the undisputed super-lightweight titles after a stunning performance against the Scot. And there were calls for an inquest into the judges’ scoring after Taylor won a hugely controversial bout. Having already forfeited his WBA belt, the 31-year-old has now given up the WBC crown as the sanctioning body ordered Jose Carlos Ramirez to fight Jose Zepeda for the vacant strap. Taylor, who has indicated his preference for a second contest against England's Catterall , had been due to take on Zepeda but the Prestonpans fighter revealed his upcoming nuptials have led to a rethink.
