#JP Morgan Chase Investments

Fucking hell, but the end may be in sight.
Called up JP Morgan Chase Investments to check on the status of the transfer two days ago and was informed the tax had been split in two by their machine, but the reviewed and accepted the paperwork.  Called them up today and, you guessed it, more issues.
So now the issue is with my credit union.  You see my credit union in the US changed their name back in 2021.  Why?  Fuck if I know, they had had the same name for 85 years before that.  But they changed their name last year, and now it’s causing issues.  
Nothing else got changed, mind you.  All the account numbers are the same, all the accounts are the same, it’s just the name changed.
But the voided check I sent had the old name, and the credit union has a different name, so I have to send a letter to JP Morgan Chase Investments via fax tomorrow morning explaining the name changed that happened a year ago, and that the reason my checks have the old name is because I never ordered new checks.  Because who the fuck uses checks these days?  Even when I lived in the US I almost never used checks.  
The only time I used checks in the US was because my landlord didn’t have an online payment portal for a year.  Then I moved and everything was digital after that.  So I still have my original box of checks from when I opened my account well over a decade ago.  Because I used exactly twelve of them, and no more.
This is also making me nervous because my credit union is rather... flaky is a polite way of putting it.  It’s a small town credit union, and it employs idiots.  I really wanted to avoid having to use them to transfer funds, or do anything money related.  The only reason my account is still open is because I have a safety deposit box with them that has some books that were too heavy to bring with me when I moved to Japan.  I honestly fully intended to get the books and close everything a few years back, but, well, plague happened and it’s put off my plans a bit.
I once went in person four separate times to make sure they knew I was traveling out of state for Christmas to visit my grandfather, and to not flag my card as stolen.  Because it wasn’t stolen, it was me using it out of state (I rarely left the state, so it would be unusual activity).  They said they understood, and it wouldn’t be an issue.
I traveled down to see my grandfather without issue.  I did shopping in the city where my grandfather lived without issue.  And then I drove back home.
My card got flagged when I was getting gas traveling back home and got turned off.  Thankfully I also had a credit card, so I wasn’t in trouble, but it was annoying.  And when I got back and asked what the hell happened, do you know what I was told?
I had told them I was traveling for Christmas.  I drove back on the 27th, which is after Christmas.  So they didn’t think it was me and the card got flagged.
It didn’t occur to anyone once that people don’t travel on Christmas day, and that my grandfather lived a two day drive away so of course if I was there for Christmas I would be traveling back after.  Not a single person thought it was unusual.  They thought I was in the wrong.
They’re a good credit union for someone living in that small town, but oof are they not designed to think outside of a tiny box.  So hopefully money getting transferred into the account won’t send red sirens going off and cause problems.  It shouldn’t, the benefits from the VA didn’t, so hopefully this doesn’t either.  But you never know.
It doesn’t help that I don’t know how much I inherited either.  JP Morgan Chase Investments can’t tell me that unless I have multiple witnesses and a notary on paperwork, which I didn’t have when I went to the consulate in Osaka.  So just a notary was required to get the money, it’s witnesses that were necessary to know how much I’m getting.
I wish I was making that last part up.  I honestly have no clue.  If I suddenly become a millionaire or something next week, well, I need to hire an accountant to do my taxes because that sounds like a pain beyond my regular taxes (in both Japan and the US, double ouch), and I’m buying potato chips to be imported from the US.  And a spinning wheel.  And wondering where the fuck my grandfather got all that money, and if he was wanted for a bank job that he pulled off at some point.
It would be kinda fun to find out that my grandfather pulled off a bank job and hid the cash for a few decades.  I think I’m getting a thousand dollars or so.  That won’t even cover a round trip economy flight to the US, but it will help go toward one so I can visit home again one day.

Here are some companies that strongly support Israel (but are not Boycott targets). There is no ethical consumption under capitalism and boycotting is a political strategy - not a moral one. If you did try to boycott every supporter of Israel you would struggle to survive because every major company supports Israel (as a result of attempting to keep the US economy afloat), that being said, the ones that are being boycotted by masses and not already on the organic boycott list are coloured red.

i learned what credit card the richest people in the United States have
To hell with your Centurion Amateur Amex card, to hell with your favourite Chase Sapphire.
These cards are for peasants and peons.
The grandfather of the grandfathers is the JP Morgan Palladium card.
Tumblr media
The card itself is made of 1 ounce of pure palladium with JP Morgan set in 24-carat gold.
The card itself is worth about $1,000 worth of precious metals.
This card cannot be requested.
You can't beg for this card.
They don't give a damn about your perfect credit score.
This card is sent to you when you have $25 million or more in JP Morgan's private investment bank.
They call it "The card for the 1% of the 1%."

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group of suckers
Tumblr media
Internet scammers are reportedly pushing “Trump Bucks” online which display pictures of the former president and promise MAGA supporters big profits. John Amann told NBC News he bought $2,200 worth of Trump Bucks only to discover they are worthless when he tried to cash them in. He is now warning other Trump supporters not to fall for the scam.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
NBC identified Patriots Dynasty, Patriots Future and USA Patriots as the companies behind Trump Bucks and found at least a dozen people like Amann who invested thousands of dollars after watching the misleading pitches on Telegram that suggested Trump was endorsing the products.
Invest in a TRB membership card “issued by Donald Trump,” the ads from Patriots Dynasty, Patriots Future and USA Patriots claim, and the purchaser who spent, say, $99.99 on a “$10,000 Diamond Trump Bucks” bill will be able to cash it in for $10,000 at major banks and retailers like Walmart, Costco and Home Depot.
“TRB system membership cards are official cards issued by Donald Trump to allow Trump Bucks holders to use Trump Bucks as legal tender and deposit them in banks such as JP Morgan Chase, the Bank of America and Wells Fargo,” a narrator identified only as “John” that appears to be a computer-generated voice says in one YouTube ad just moments after cautioning viewers that “Trump Bucks are not legal tender.”
It’s a get-rich-quick scam that is catnip to a certain kind of Trump supporter — including QAnon believers and others who believe the former president is the only solution to America’s problems.

The year is 1912, The luxurious “Millionare’s Special” steam engine oceanliner RMS Titanic is about to embark on her maiden voyage. Aboard it are John Aster, Isador Strauss & Benjamin Guggenheim; three of the world’s wealthiest men, who are opposed to the creation of the federal reserve banking system and turning the USA into a corporation. JP Morgan Chase, the owner of the ship, coincidentally was not aboard. He’d intended to be, but cancelled just hours before it’s departure. Which is terrible considering he’d invested 7.5 million dollars into it (1911 7.5 million… according to an internet inflation calculator that is equivalent to $2,401,002,631.53 “two billion ,four hundred one million ,two thousand ,six hundred thirty one dollars and fifty three cents” in 2023!) Tragically amongst thousands of others Aster, Strauss, and Guggenheim perished at sea when The Titanic crashed at full speed into an established iceberg. So sad. But without them around to use their wealth and power in opposition of the creation of a Federal Reserve System, in 1913, a year later, it was signed into law.
It’s interesting that now in present time, 2023, Billionaires were adventuring to the bottom of the ocean sea-floor, for entertainment’s sake, to traverse the oceanic graveyard of Titanic Shipwreckage.. of course they died too, and with full time coverage. All of those of us who never even asked suddenly being non-consensually updated and roped in. I was at work today and people were like “Did you hear? They ran out of air.” I’m like who the fuck even are they? But still, it’s trippy. Especially after a year of many satirical eat-the-rich-laugh-at-them-suffering films topped charts. In these times laughing at kings fall is all we have, I get it. But it gets weirder, because the CEO of OceanGate Expositions was married to a woman named Wendy Rush, who’s the great-great-great granddaughter (by blood) of Isador Strauss (remember him? mentioned above ^) it’s crazy! How esoteric. But I don’t really even want the focus to be on waterlogged billionaires or the late Strauss Bloodline.. I want to go back to 2023 JP Morgan Chase.. the original man is dead but his namesake and legacy live on, leeching evil into the earth. I wonder why it doesn’t get more press when ten days ago JP Morgan Chase Bank agreed to pay $260 million dollars to victims of Jeffrey Epstein to settle their class action lawsuit around the bank associating with Epstein as he trafficked people and even after he was convicted of pedophilia. TODAY, the same fucking day that these random rich bros die 20,000 leagues under the sea. 6/22/2023, JP Morgan Chase (bank) is fined 4 Million dollars for permanently deleting 47 million emails. I wonder what future lawsuits they sunk by deleting that info. I wonder if this OceanGate Submarine story is real or an intentional distraction/ psyop. Idk I’ve been writing for 15 min n just got hit with so much sleepiness I’m going to be lazy and not actually conclude this at all. Banks own media Banks have bloodlust Banks know how much we love bread and circuses and it’s all smoke and mirrors. A Triangle Of Sadness that we can’t do anything about until we realize how disgustingly low they will sink to get what they want. Abolishing these unimaginably massive wealth and power inequities is the only path forward, but first we have to sit with the information we’re given, and discern and be open minded, be curious, hold massive possibilities with our mind’s eyes. not shut down, or deflect with laughter. Not be lead like a mouse to a trap. They invest trillions into keeping us busy/distracted/subdued/subservient and it doesn’t even matter because we mock and police each other and make jokes of curiosity. “Conspiracy Bullshit” / unconscious trust and devotion.
I’m not saying any of this applies to anything: I am sure it is all coincidental, this is just here to make u smile. A joke. Love u.

Your Black World http://bit.ly/1dwTN6Q
It is no secret that slavery rests at the foundation of American capitalism and is often synonymous with the sugar, tobacco, and/or cotton plantations that fueled the Southern economy.  What many may not know is that slavery also rests at the foundation of many notable corporations.  From New York Life to Bank of America, several companies have benefitted from slavery.  Many of the companies even acknowledged their involvement in slavery and offered apologies in an attempt to reconcile their tainted history but, is an apology enough?
History has consistently shown that slavery has diminished the quality of life for African Americans and simultaneously enhanced the quality of life for White Americans.  From institutionalized racism to blocked social and economic opportunities, African Americans are often excluded of African Americans.
Apologies cannot compensate an entire race of people for all of the social and economic ills they face as a result of their enslavement. They cannot address the residual effects of slavery.  They cannot provide job opportunities to a race of people who are experiencing high unemployment rates.  Apologieswithout action from the very systems they helped to create.  Had it not been for slave labor, many corporations would not be where they are today and for these companies to acknowledge their involvement in slavery and then simply say ‘Oh, I’m sorry”, is to downplay their role in perpetuating the degradation are nothing more than a futile attempt to correct a wrong by pacifying the wronged.  Instead of apologies, these companies could give back to the African American community bydonating to HBCUs, investing in minority businesses, offering more minority scholarships, or launching initiatives to increase their number of minority employees. 
New York Life New York Life found that its predecessor (Nautilus Insurance Company) sold slaveholder policies during the mid-1800s.
2. Tiffany and Co Tiffany and Co. was originally financed with profits from a Connecticut cotton mill. The mill operated from cotton picked by slaves.
3. Aetna Aetna insured the lives of slaves during the 1850’s and reimbursed slave owners when their slaves died.
4. Brooks Brothers The suit retailer started their company in the 1800s by selling clothes for slaves to slave traders.
5. Norfolk Southern Rail Road Two companies (Mobile & Girard and the Central of Georgia) became part of Norfolk Southern.  Mobile & Girard paid slave owners $180 to rent their slaves to the railroad for a year.  The Central of Georgia owned several slaves.
6. Bank of America  Bank of America found that two of its predecessor banks (Boatman Savings Institution and Southern Bank of St. Louis) had ties to slavery and another predecessor (Bank of Metropolis)accepted slaves as collateral on loans.
7. U.S.A. Today  U.S.A. Today reported that its parent company (E.W. Scripps and Gannett) was linked to the slave trade.
8. Wachovia Two institutions that became part of Wachovia (Georgia Railroad and Banking Company and the Bank of Charleston)owned or accepted slaves as collateral on mortgaged property or loans.
9. AIG (American International Group)  AIG purchased American General Financial which owns U.S. Life Insurance Company.  AIG found documentation that U.S. Life insured the lives of slaves.
10. JP Morgan Chase  JP Morgan Chase reported that between 1831 and 1865, two of its predecessor banks (Citizens Bank and Canal Bank in Louisiana) accepted approximately 13,000 slaves as loan collateral and seized approximately 1,250 slaves when plantation owners defaulted on their loans

Common Dreams
Sept. 4, 2023
ActionAid found that since the Paris agreement, banks have funded the largest Big Ag companies doing business in the Global South to the tune of $370 billion and the fossil fuel sector to the tune of $3.2 trillion.
Since the international community promised to limit global heating to 1.5°C above preindustrial levels, the world's major banks have funneled 20 times more money to climate-polluting industries in the Global South than Global North governments have given those same countries to address the climate emergency.
That's just one of the findings of How the Finance Flows: The Banks Fueling the Climate Crisis, an ActionAid report released Monday.
"This report names the biggest offenders in the banking world and calls on them to see that they are destroying the planet, while harming the present and future for their children," Ugandan climate activist Vanessa Nakate wrote in the foreword. "It's time to hold financial institutions to account, and demand that they end their funding of destructive activity."
The report focuses on the financing of two major climate-heating industries in the 134 nations of the Global South: fossil fuels and industrial agriculture.
"People generally know that fossil fuels are the number one cause of greenhouse gas emissions. But what is less understood is that industrial agriculture is actually the second biggest cause of climate emissions," Teresa Anderson, the global lead on climate justice at ActionAid International, said during a press briefing ahead of the report's release.
This is because of the sector's link to deforestation, as well as the emissions required to produce industrial fertilizers, she added.
In total, since the 2015 Paris agreement, banks have funded the largest Big Ag companies doing business in the Global South to the tune of $370 billion and the oil, gas, and coal sectors to the tune of $3.2 trillion.
"Global banks often make public declarations that they are addressing climate change, but the scale of their continued support of fossil fuels and industrial agriculture is simply staggering."
The top three banks that invested the most in these sectors were the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China at $154.3 billion, China CITIC Bank at $134.7 billion, and the Bank of China at $125.9 billion. Citigroup came in fourth at $104.5 billion, followed by HSBC at $80.8 billion.
While China features prominently in the report as the world's largest economy, Anderson noted that much of what it produces ends up purchased by consumers in the Global North.
The top three banks in the Americas funding big agriculture and fossil fuels were Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and Bank of America. While Citigroup was the leading regional funder of fossil fuels, JP Morgan Chase gave the most to industrial agriculture.
In Europe, the top funders after HSBC were BNP Paribas, Société Générale, and Barclays, while Mitsubishi UFJ Financial rounded out the top Asian funders.
Where is all that money going? When it comes to agriculture, the leading recipient was Bayer, which bought out Monsanto in 2018. Banks have given it $20.6 billion to do business in the Global South since 2016.
Much of the fossil fuel money went to China's State Power Investment Corporation and other Chinese companies; commodities trader Trafigura; and the usual fossil fuel suspects like ExxonMobil, BP, Shell, Saudi Aramco, and Petrobras.
"This is absurd," Anderson said of the findings. "Global banks often make public declarations that they are addressing climate change, but the scale of their continued support of fossil fuels and industrial agriculture is simply staggering."
ActionAid called the report the "flagship" document of its Fund Our Future campaign to redirect global money from climate crisis causes to climate solutions. The report calls on banks to make good on their climate promises and stop funding fossil fuels and deforestation, as well as to put additional safeguards in place to protect the rights of local communities, raise the ambition of their goals to reach "real zero" emissions, and improve transparency and other measures to make sure the projects they fund are behaving ethically.

"This can be stopped," Farah Kabir, the country director of ActionAid Bangladesh, said during the press briefing. "The banks cannot continue to fund fossil fuel industries and industrial agriculture."
In addition, the report offers recommendations to Global North governments to ensure a just transition to a sustainable future for everyone. These included setting stricter regulations for the banking, fossil fuel, and agricultural industries as well as ending public subsidies for these sectors and channeling the money to positive solutions like renewable energy and agroecology.
However, the form that funds take when sent to the Global South makes a big difference, said ActionAid USA executive director Niranjali Amerasinghe. Instead of coming in the form of private loans, it needs to be in the form of public money.
"Providing more loans to countries that are already in significant debt distress is not going to support their transition to a climate-compatible future," she said.
One reason that loans are counterproductive is that nations that accept them are forced to provide a return on investment, and currently the main industries that offer this are in fact fossil fuels and industrial agriculture.
In addition to public funds, debt forgiveness or restructuring and new taxes could also help these countries with their green transition. If companies like Exxon or Bayer doing business in the Global South "were taxed in an equitable way, that would allow those governments to raise public revenue that can then be used to support climate action," Amerasinghe said.
In particular, the report emphasizes agroecology as a climate solution that should be funded in Global South countries.
"Climate change is real in Zambia."
Mary Sakala, a frontline smallholder farmer from Zambia, spoke at the press briefing about how the climate crisis and current agricultural policy put a strain on her community.
"Climate change is real in Zambia," she said, adding that it had brought flooding, droughts, pests, and diseases that meant that "families currently, as I'm speaking right now, sleep on an empty stomach."
Sakala saw hope in agroecology, which would help with food security and resilience, and make farmers less dependent on the government and large companies.
"We need policies to allow [us] to conserve our environment in a cultural way, to help us eat our food," Sakala said. "We want… every seed to be utilized and saved and shared in solidarity."
And she said that the companies and governments of the Global North have a duty to help them get there.
"Those people who are continuing to pollute and let the climate change increase, those people need to pay us, because we are suffering from the things that others are doing," she said.

So I went to Osaka, got my notarization on paperwork proving that I am, in fact, me, and faxed all the paperwork to JP Morgan Investments.
Faxing was easy.  I live in Japan, the land of faxes.  In Japan, faxes fucking work.  Fax machines fucking work.  You have to perform sacrifices to elder gods to fuck up a fax in some way.
That’s important.  Remember that.
So I call them up today just to check to make sure they got my fax because, in the US, faxes just... aren’t.  And the only way they’ll accept anything is either via fax or physical mail.  If I send my paperwork in via physical mail, JP Morgan Chase Investments can claim they never received it, or they can lose it, or any number of things, and then I would have to get the paperwork back from them and do the entire thing over again.  I don’t want to do the entire thing over again, I already did it once.  Once was enough.
Called them up and the nice lady on the phone confirmed that my fax came through... in two parts.  So it got rejected automatically.  She said that sometimes faxes do that.
Not in fucking Japan they don’t!  So the problem was clearly on their end.  Which makes me very glad that I called them and checked to make sure they knew how to receive a fax, because apparently that’s a no.
So now they’re going to re review the fax to get it cleared, and then it will take another two weeks or so to transfer my inheritance.  And then I get to try to transfer it from the credit union to my Japanese bank, which is going to be hell and a half I just know.  I may just leave it there for now until the yen isn’t so weak against the dollar.  It will also give me funds to use the next time I’m in the US, because Japanese credit cards just don’t in foreign countries I’ve long since learned.  Or, at least, they don’t in Denmark or Germany, so I assume that goes for the US as well.
This all makes me head hurt.  
This all started in May, but the way.  It’s now November.  
Apparently, according to the woman from JP Morgan Investments on the phone, I’m lucky they sent me the old paperwork to fill out in the first place, because now they don’t allow transfers to outside bank accounts, only to JP Morgan Chase bank accounts in the first place.  My paperwork is grandfathered in is the only reason I’m getting my inheritance.  Because I can’t set up a JP Morgan Chase bank account from Japan, nor have I any desire to.
How fucked is it that that’s a legal thing to do?

An image anniversary video dedicated to the 100 years of international financial conglomerate J.P.Morgan Chase in China.
JP Morgan is one of the oldest and most influential financial conglomerates on the planet. It is the largest public company in the world (according to Forbes magazine).
We offer you to make a great journey into the past, present, and future of the “Chinese Economic Miracle".
Today, China is the most populous country in the world and the third largest state in the world. Just like the US economy, the Chinese economy is considered a world leader. This is a potential superpower. Currently, China is the largest exporter in the world. But that wasn't always the case.
The present is the result of the fierce struggle and hard work of several generations, as well as the result of political decisions, international relations, and investments. China's transformation from a poor agricultural country into an economic superpower within 100 years has been called the “Economic Miracle of China.”
We demonstrate J.P. Morgan's contribution to this "economic miracle" visually, with a picture, without words, in this anniversary video.

New Post has been published on All about business online
New Post has been published on https://yaroreviews.info/2023/11/sunak-welcomes-foreign-firms-29-5bn-vote-of-confidence
Sunak welcomes foreign firms' £29.5bn 'vote of confidence'
Getty Images
By Lucy Hooker
Business reporter, BBC News
The prime minister will host a group of leading business figures on Monday at Hampton Court to highlight foreign firms’ plans to invest in the UK.
Rishi Sunak said £29.5bn of new investment had been promised, which he described as a “huge vote of confidence” in the UK economy.
Last week’s Autumn Statement included a raft of measures to encourage more business investment.
But it came against a backdrop of lower growth forecasts.
The Autumn Statement measures were largely designed to persuade domestic firms to invest more, an area in which the UK has been lagging behind its G7 peers.
However, the government said the UK’s track record on attracting foreign investment remained strong.
Labour, on the other hand, said the government’s policies had been a “total failure” when it came to growth and business investment.
“The past 13 years of Conservative government has been marked by a complete lack of stability, consistency and ambition which has turned potential investors away from Britain,” Jonathan Reynolds, shadow trade and business secretary, said.
On Monday the government will be rolling out the red carpet at Hampton Court Palace – where King Henry VIII famously stepped away from day-to-day business matters to enjoy feasting and jousting – for what the government says will be an “historic” event, celebrating the UK’s track record in innovation, “from the steam train to quantum computing”.
It will be followed by a dinner with King Charles III at Buckingham Palace.
Some of those attending are themselves deemed global investment royalty. They include Stephen Schwarzman, the chief executive of investment group Blackstone, David Solomon from Goldman Sachs and Jamie Dimon at JP Morgan Chase.
“Global CEOs are right to back Britain – we are making this the best place in the world to invest and do business,” Mr Sunak said.
Mr Sunak pointed to the UK’s “culture of innovation and thriving universities” and highlighted “clean energy, life sciences and advanced technology” as key areas where he said inward investment was already creating jobs and driving growth.
Tax break for businesses made permanent
UK growth forecasts slashed for next two years
Austerity warning for public services after tax cuts
Among the projects that will be confirmed on Monday are a £10bn investment from Australia’s IFM Investors into infrastructure and energy projects and a commitment to build a new lab in Cambridge from BioNTech, the firm which pioneered the mRNA Covid vaccine.
Some of the sums on the list of projects that are being announced at the summit are ones that investors had previously announced, and which are now ready to attach a specific investment figure to. Others, such as IFM’s investments, have already begun, and future investment sums are now being clarified. Other firms are adding new investments to existing portfolios.
Among the projects being highlighted are a £7bn boost to the amount Spain’s Iberdrola is investing in UK electricity transmission and distribution; a £5bn investment from Australia’s Aware Super in a range of businesses including the energy transition and affordable housing; and a £2.5bn from Microsoft in AI infrastructure.

UK Investment Summit Spurs Economic Transformation
Tumblr media
  Transformative Investments Drive Growth Across Thriving Sectors
In a groundbreaking announcement, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has unveiled an impressive £29.5 billion in new investments targeting the UK's most dynamic sectors. This unveiling took place at the Global Investment Summit at Hampton Court Palace, attracting A-list CEOs and investors from around the world.   Boosting Innovation: Investments in Key Sectors These transformative investments, totaling over £29 billion, are set to revolutionize sectors such as tech, life sciences, infrastructure, housing, and renewable energy. The strategic focus on these areas aims to create thousands of new jobs and stimulate growth across the entire country.  
Levelling Up: Thousands of Jobs Created
The summit represents a significant stride towards the government's commitment to leveling up, with over 12,000 jobs slated to be created from today's investments alone. This momentum builds on recent initiatives, including the £4.5 billion Advanced Manufacturing Plan and a £2 billion investment from Nissan securing thousands of jobs in Sunderland.   Regional Impact: Jobs Surge Across the UK Last year witnessed the creation of nearly 26,000 jobs in the North West and North East through inward investment projects. Yorkshire and The Humber saw over 7,000 new jobs, while the Midlands experienced an influx of 11,000 jobs. The government's commitment to regional development is evident in these substantial job creation numbers.  
Global Summit Kickoff: CEOs and Government Leaders Gather
The summit's grand opening, led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Business & Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch, saw the participation of notable CEOs, including Stephen Schwarzman from Blackstone, Amanda Blanc at Aviva, David Soloman from Goldman Sachs, and Jamie Dimon at JP Morgan Chase. Principal Partners Barclays, HSBC, and Lloyds Bank also lent their support.   Celebrating British Ideas: From Past to Future The summit's theme, "British Ideas – Past, Present, and Future," captures the essence of the event, exploring innovation from the steam train to quantum computing. The day concludes with a reception at Buckingham Palace hosted by His Majesty the King.  
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Optimistic Outlook
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak expressed confidence in the UK's economic future, stating, "Today’s investments, worth more than £29 billion, will create thousands of new jobs and are a huge vote of confidence in the future of the UK economy." Sunak emphasized the nation's appeal to global CEOs, citing recent initiatives, including substantial tax cuts for businesses.   Nurturing Innovation: Inward Investment for Key Industries Sunak highlighted the centrality of global investment to his economic growth plan, emphasizing funding pouring into vital industries like clean energy, life sciences, and advanced technology. Inward investment, Sunak asserted, is the driving force behind high-quality job creation and widespread economic growth.  
Chancellor's Recent Moves: A Business-Friendly Landscape
These new investments follow Chancellor Jeremy Hunt's recent announcement of the biggest business tax cut in modern history during the Autumn Statement. The permanent extension of capital allowances, business rates support, and the £7 billion Growth Fund all contribute to creating a business-friendly environment.   Sustainability Boost: Investments in Renewable Energy In a significant boost for Net Zero and the UK's renewables sector, Iberdrola confirmed £7 billion of investment, while North Star committed £500 million and 400 new jobs to offshore wind infrastructure. This aligns with a surge in inward investment for renewables, rising from £19 billion in 2021 to £55 billion in 2022.  
IFM Investors and Aware Super: Australian Commitments
IFM Investors pledged £10 billion for large-scale infrastructure and energy transition projects, showcasing a partnership with the UK Government. Simultaneously, Aware Super committed over £5 billion for various projects, citing the benefits of the Australia-UK Free Trade Agreement and the ease of doing business in the UK.   Tech Sector Surge: Microsoft's £2.5 Billion Pledge The UK's thriving tech sector receives a substantial boost with Microsoft's commitment of £2.5 billion to build critical AI infrastructure. This includes next-generation AI data centers and thousands of graphic processing units, reinforcing the UK's position as an AI Superpower.  
Oxford Quantum Circuits and BioNTech: R&D Investments
Oxford Quantum Circuits announced a £106 million R&D fundraising for quantum computing projects, aligning with the government's National Quantum Strategy. BioNTech, a leader in biotechnology, shared plans for a £1 billion investment in R&D activities, including a new laboratory in Cambridge.   Commitment to the Future: Building a Sustainable Economy These diverse investments underscore the UK's commitment to building a sustainable and innovative economy. From quantum computing to renewable energy and biotechnology, the government's strategic approach aims to position the UK as a global leader in cutting-edge technologies.   Sources: THX News, Prime Minister's Office, 10 Downing Street, Department for Business and Trade, The Rt Hon Kemi Badenoch MP, & The Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP.
