Car finance scandal plunging Close Brothers into turmoil By MARK SHAPLAND Updated: 21:50, 23 November 2024 e-mail View comments Close Brothers is one of London's most venerable banking institutions. Founded in 1878 by William Brooks Close and his brothers Fred and James, the bank grew to prominence by financing 19th Century infrastructure projects, such as the White Pass and Yukon Route, Alaska's first railway. Renowned for its old-world charm and links to the British aristocracy, the FTSE 250-listed lender has steered away from the racy worlds of investment banking and high-frequency trading and has stuck to the more traditional business of lending, deposit-taking and wealth management instead. But one decision taken 40 years ago has come back to haunt the bank. When motor finance started to take off in the 1980s, Close Brothers decided to go all in. The sector was growing rapidly as demand soared for new and second-hand vehicles – and with it the loans needed to pay for them. The car loan sector has boomed to the point that motor finance is now second in size only to the mortgage markets, surpassing even credit card lending. At Close Brothers, car loans make up a fifth of total lending, or nearly £2 billion. Now, what once looked like a reliable stream of revenue and profit, has turned sour. There is speculation that the bank could be forced to sell assets to meet compensation claims, possibly including the Winterflood Securities stockbroking operation, one of the best-known names in the City. Some observers fear Close Brothers itself could become a takeover target. 'It is easy to see why the decision [to enter the car loans business] was made at the time,' said Gary Greenwood, an analyst at investment bank Shore Capital. 'Unfortunately though, it looks like it has come unstuck.' Slippery slope: Close Brothers shares are down more than 70 per cent so far this year The trouble started in January, when the Financial Conduct Authority, the industry regulator, announced a probe into hidden commission payments made by lenders to dealers without the customer's knowledge or consent. The issue escalated last month, when the Court of Appeal ruled that commissions to car dealers may be unlawful if they were not clearly flagged to customers. Close Brothers says it intends to appeal to the Supreme Court, the highest court in the land. Larger banks, including Lloyds, the owner of market-leading car finance provider Black Horse, are also implicated. Lloyds set aside £450 million earlier this year for possible claims, and Santander last week earmarked £295 million. But while the major lenders are big enough to ride out the storm, Close Brothers is the most exposed in relative terms to the mounting scandal.

To make matters worse, its chief executive, Adrian Sainsbury, is on 'temporary medical leave' and no date has been provided for his return. Should it fail to win its appeal, Close Brothers could be forced to sell off more assets to ease investors' and regulators' nerves. Founder: William Brooks Close The bank has agreed to sell its wealth division to private equity firm Oaktree in a deal worth £200 million. It has also scrapped dividend payouts to shareholders in a bid to shore up its finances. Analysts say Winterflood could be the next in line – an asset that according to Greenwood could be worth 'tens of millions' of pounds. Potential buyers include rival Panmure Gordon. Credit rating agency Moody's has calculated that the final compensation bill for the industry as a whole could balloon to £30 billion – which would make it the biggest mis-selling scandal since payment protection insurance (PPI). 'We had just got over PPI and there was a real sense that Britain's banks were investible again – and now this. It will hang over bank share prices for the next decade,' said Robert Sage, a bank analyst at stockbroker Peel Hunt.

Thousands still queuing to vote after Namibia polls closeZAYN Malik has returned to the stage for his first gig since the tragic death of ex-One Direction bandmate Liam Payne. Earlier this week, Liam was laid to rest a month after he fell to his death from a balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina . Tonight, Zayn kicked off his tour, named Stairway To The Sky, in Leeds in front of thousands at the 02 Academy. The star wore a red cap and a hlack t-shirt with rapper Tupac on the front. Adoring fans waved their phones in the air with their flashlights on as Zayn serenaded the crowd. The tour was due to begin in Edinburgh on November 20 but was delayed after the death and funeral of Liam. Read More in Showbiz Zayn was also due to perform in San Francisco, California, on October 23, before playing several more US dates throughout the month and in November but these dates have now been rescheduled. It comes as Zayn gathered alongside Harry Styles , Louis Tomlinson , and Niall Horan to say goodbye to Liam at his funeral on Wednesday. It was the first public appearance Zayn has made with the group since he left the band in 2015. The pop star left One Direction, citing "stress," after withdrawing from the group's world tour. Most read in Showbiz Liam and Zayn found fame together as members of One Direction back in 2010, alongside Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan. The group became an international phenomenon, with hits including Kiss You, What Makes You Beautiful and Night Changes. As news of Liam's heartbreaking loss spread around the world, the band released a statement together, before they each made their own separate tributes. Zayn shared a picture of him and Liam cuddled up together in the back of the car as he reflected on their friendship and the time they spent together. He wrote: "Liam I have found myself talking out loud to you, hoping you can hear me, I can't help but think selfishly that there was so many more conversations for us to have in our lives. "I never got to thank you for supporting me through some of the most difficult times in my life. "When I was missing home as a 17-year-old kid, you would always be there with a positive outlook and reassuring smile and let me know you were my friend and that I was loved." He added: "When it came to the music, Liam, you were the most qualified in every sense. "I knew nothing in comparison, I was a novice child with no experience and you were already a professional. "I lost a brother when you left us and can't explain to you what I'd give to just give you a hug one last time and say goodbye to you properly. READ MORE SUN STORIES "I will cherish all the memories I have with you in my heart forever". Liam is survived by his family, including his sister Ruth, and his seven-year-old son, Bear. SHOCKED fans, former co-workers, loved ones and friends flooded social media with sad tributes to Liam Payne after news of his death emerged. Harry Styles’ mum Anne was among the first from One Direction's camp to share her reaction, posting a photo of Liam and writing 'Just a boy...' alongside a broken heart emoji. Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden shared an image of the pair together with the words: "Such an awful tragedy. "Sending love to his family and all those who loved him." X Factor star Olly Murs told fans he was "devastated" and "lost for words". He wrote on social media: “Liam shared the same passions as me, the same dreams so to see his life now end so young hits hard, I’m truly gutted and devastated for his Family and of course his son Bear losing a dad x". Liam Gallagher said he was "very sad" and told his followers on X: "Life is precious Kids, you only get to do it once, go easy." Former X Factor presenter Dermot O’Leary has also expressed his shock and spoke on This Morning. He said: “I remember him as a 14-year-old turning up to audition on The X Factor, and blowing us away singing Sinatra. He just loved to sing. “He was always a joy, had time for everyone, polite, grateful, and was always humble.” BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball reacted to the "devastating news" on her show and told fans she hugged her own son Woody tight this morning. JLS band member Marvin Humes reflected on his memories with the singer, sharing: "I first met Liam in 2008 with the JLS boys whilst auditioning for X Factor..he was 14 years old.. "We instantly clicked and looked at him as a little brother..that year it worked out for us but not for him and then 2 years later he went back to audition and One Direction was born..the rest is history.. "Absolutely heartbroken by the tragic news..Liam you wanted to be a global superstar and you did it bro..just can’t believe that things have ended this way..it’s shocking..my thoughts and prayers are with all your family and friends brother..RIP." Niall Horan' s brother Greg shared an emotional tribute to Liam, praising him as a "top young man". He added: "You will be forever missed. Liam, words can’t describe how much I want to grab my brother and mind him now while the world shows their memories of you and him and the boys. "My heart goes out to your family parents and sisters and your son Bear and your 1D brothers.

The producer, who worked with Liam on his 2017 hit Get Low, wrote: "RIP Liam... I can’t believe this is real...absolutely heartbreaking..." American singer, Charlie Puth , who was friends with Liam and also collaborated with him on a song called Bedroom Floor, has posted a series of Instagram stories dedicated to him. Alongside photos of the two of them together in their younger days, Charlie wrote: "I am in shock right now. Liam was always so kind to me. "He was one of the first major artists I got to work with. I can not believe he is gone... "I am so upset right now, may he rest in peace. I am so sorry..." Irish singer duo Jedward also took to social media, saying: "RIP Liam Payne. Condolences to friends and family." In another tweet, they added: "Sending strength to Cheryl and his son Bear. And all the One direction Family. RIP Liam Payne." American media personality Paris Hilton shared: "So upsetting to hear the news of Liam Payne passing. Sending love and condolences to his family & loved ones. RIP my friend." ITV weather presenter Alex Beresford shared a news video about Liam's tragic death on Instagram, adding: "Can't believe this! RIP Liam." Meanwhile Love Island star Molly Marsh penned: "I'm so taken aback, rest in peace." James Cordon also paid his own tribute, describing the star as a "loving and kind soul". The Gavin and Stacey actor wrote on Instagram: "Talking about Liam in the past tense is utterly heart-breaking. "I will treasure the moments I got to spend with him. My thoughts are with his family today x." Payne previously appeared on Cordon's The Late Late Show in America. Former Little Mix star Jade Thirwall - who won X Factor with her bandmates one year after One Direction took part - described him as "the first friend I made in this industry". She said: "We fell out of touch as the years went by, but back in 2008 he was the first friend I made in this industry. "Both of us so young, so ambitious, both hoping we'd 'make it'. I hope you are at peace now". Camila Cabello described his death as a "tragedy" and said he "made an impression" on her when she was a young girl.

MEDIA ADVISORY: CanadaHelps, Co-Founders of GivingTuesday in Canada, Encourages Generosity on December 3rdPresident Joe Biden mourns Jimmy Carters death, orders official state funeral to honor himBy Asad Mirza As the Biden administration prepares to relinquish power next month, it may leave without accomplishing a much-discussed diplomatic goal: the normalisation of ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia, accompanied by a formal US security agreement with Saudi Arabia. The future of a formal US-Saudi security agreement remains uncertain, though the Biden administration appears to be now pursuing a pact that would not involve a broader deal with Israel making concessions towards a Palestinian state. While the Biden-administration may want to expedite the deal so that it is complete before 20 January 2025, western media reports that Riyadh is now looking for a “more modest” agreement that forgoes normalising ties with Israel. Reuters citing sources says that the Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman (MbS) has doubled down on the condition that normalisation with Israel must depend on Tel Aviv’s commitment to work towards the establishment of an independent Palestinian state, in line with the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is still eager to secure normalisation with the Saudi powerhouse as a historic milestone and a sign of broader acceptance in the Arab world. But Netanyahu is treading cautiously as he knows that any step towards a two-state solution would break apart his ruling coalition, the sources said. As a result of the Saudi and Israeli positions, “Riyadh and Washington hope a more modest defence pact could be sealed before President Joe Biden leaves the White House in January.” according to the Saudi and western sources. Earlier this year, numerous reports said Saudi Arabia was seeking a defence pact with Washington, to secure access to better US weaponry, and a US-backed nuclear programme in exchange for it agreeing to normalisation of ties with Israel. The Guardian reported in May, however, that the kingdom began pushing for a “more modest” defence pact with the US that foregoes a normalisation deal with Israel due to Tel Aviv’s intransigence toward an independent Palestinian state. US President Joe Biden said last week that the ceasefire in Lebanon moves Washington closer to its vision for a “more integrated” West Asia, referring to the normalisation of ties by Arab states with Israel. “I applaud the courageous decision made by the leaders of Lebanon and Israel to end the violence. It reminds us that peace is possible.” the president added. The US president went on to say that Washington remains prepared to broker a peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia that will include “a credible pathway for establishing a Palestinian state.” A full-blown US-Saudi treaty would need to pass the US Senate with a two-thirds majority – and this would be a non-starter unless Riyadh recognises Israel, the sources said. The pact now under discussion would involve expanding joint military exercises and drills to address regional threats, mainly from Iran. It would foster partnerships between US and Saudi defence firms, with safeguards to prevent collaboration with China, the sources said. The agreement would promote Saudi investment in advanced technologies, especially drone defence. The US would increase its presence in Riyadh through training, logistics and cyber security support, and may deploy a Patriot missile battalion to enhance missile defence and integrated deterrence. But it would not be the kind of binding mutual defence treaty that would oblige US forces to protect the world’s biggest oil exporter in the event of a foreign attack. The picture is complicated further, however, by the impending arrival of Donald Trump in the White House. While Trump’s plan to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict excludes any provisions for Palestinian statehood or sovereignty, he is a close ally of the Saudi crown prince. Palestinian and some Arab officials worry that Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner – architect of the “Deal of the Century” and also a close ally of the crown prince – may ultimately persuade him to support the plan. How the prince reconciles Saudi priorities with this shifting diplomatic landscape will be pivotal, defining both his leadership and the future of the peace process, diplomats said. The current US administration has not yet given up hope for a deal on security guarantees before Biden leaves office in January, but several obstacles remain. One of which is whether there is enough time to strike a deal. US officials are mindful that the kingdom is still interested in formally cementing the guarantees it has been seeking, especially to gain access to more advanced weapons, but are uncertain whether it would prefer to get it done under Biden, or wait for Trump, the source say. The critics of any such agreement between Saudi Arabia and the US say that he US has already contributed to a moral hazard by arming the Saudi Arabia-UAE coalition in its initial 2015 Operation Decisive Storm aerial bombing campaign on Yemen, thereby becoming complicit in killing thousands of civilians. Alex Little in his opinion piece on US-based website thehill.com says that Saudi Arabia faces no threat to its sovereignty, as the Middle East lacks a true regional hegemon. Regional stability is one of Washington’s main rationales in its dealings with Riyadh. Yet Saudi Arabia has been involved in almost every conflict zone and geopolitical fault line throughout the Middle East. Additionally, weapons that were given to the Saudis have a history of ending up in adversaries’ hands, including Al Qaeda and Iran. Moreover, corruption and a lack of transparency in Saudi defence institutions is a prevailing problem. Little further opines that on top of the mismanagement of military aid, devoting equipment that Saudi Arabia would need to enhance its defence would detract from American interests in higher priority theatres, namely the Indo-Pacific. He says further that fears that China will replace the US as a security guarantor in the Middle East are unfounded. China has little to no ability to project power in the Middle East and is highly opposed to military intervention, alliances and establishing bases. Another dilemma which MbS faces is how to deal with the internal audience and the so-called Islamic world, if he agrees to normalisation of ties with Israel, as it will definitely impact his standing in the country and the region negatively. While the Saudi leadership strongly advocates Palestinian statehood, it remains uncertain, according to diplomats, how the crown prince would respond if Trump revives the deal he had floated in 2020 to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

President-elect Donald Trump said Thursday that former Sen. David Perdue , R-Ga., had agreed to be nominated to be the next U.S. ambassador to China . “As a Fortune 500 CEO, who had a 40-year International business career, and served in the U.S. Senate, David brings valuable expertise to help build our relationship with China,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform , noting that Perdue has lived in Singapore and Hong Kong and spent much of his career working in China and elsewhere in Asia. > 24/7 San Diego news stream: Watch NBC 7 free wherever you are “He will be instrumental in implementing my strategy to maintain Peace in the region, and a productive working relationship with China’s leaders,” Trump said. Perdue's nomination is subject to Senate confirmation. The bilateral relationship between the U.S. and China, the world’s two largest economies, is often described as the most important in the world. Ties reached their lowest point in decades in recent years, but both President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping have been taking steps to improve them despite continuing disputes over trade, technology, human rights and the status of Beijing-claimed Taiwan. Trump, who takes office in January, started a trade war with China during his first term as president and has vowed to impose tariffs of 60% or more on all Chinese goods imported in his next one. Last week, he said he would impose an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods unless Beijing does more to stop the international flow of precursor chemicals for fentanyl.

He served on the Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees. He lost to Democrat Jon Ossoff in a runoff after the 2020 general election. In 2022, he ran for governor after Trump recruited him to challenge Republican Gov. Brian Kemp , who refused to help Trump overturn Georgia’s election results in 2020, when the state voted for Biden. Perdue lost to Kemp in the Republican primary by more than 50 percentage points. “David has been a loyal supporter and friend, and I look forward to working with him in his new role!” Trump said Thursday. Before he entered the Senate, Perdue had a long corporate career, including as president and CEO of Reebok and CEO of Dollar General and the North Carolina textile company PillowTex. The current U.S. ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns , told NBC News in October that U.S.-China competition would continue “into the next decade.” “It’s a very challenging relationship,” he said. “But it’s without any question the most consequential relationship that we Americans have with any other country.” Xi told Biden last month that he would work with the Trump administration and that “China’s goal of a stable, healthy and sustainable China-U.S. relationship remains unchanged.” This article first appeared on NBCNews.com .

Roslovic scores twice in Hurricanes' four-goal third in win over DevilsWhile history has softened the harsh view of Jimmy Carter’s presidency, there is one part of his legacy that looks worse as the years pass. Carter, , called to boycott the 1980 Olympics because of the Soviet Union’s invasion of Afghanistan, and the pressure he exerted on the U.S. Olympic Committee to comply, was wrong and naïve. It accomplished nothing other than to further entrench the antagonism between the United States and the Soviet Union, and inserted politics where it didn’t belong. Worse, it punished hundreds of athletes, robbing them of the moment and opportunity for which they had trained and sacrificed. Not just American athletes, either. Other countries joined the United States in boycotting the Summer Games in Moscow, including Canada and Japan, and the Soviet Union and much of the Eastern bloc retaliated four years later in Los Angeles. Carter, raised the possibility of a boycott in January 1980, a month after the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, hoping the embarrassment of the world staying home from the Summer Games would convince the communist powerhouse to leave Afghanistan. After the Soviets ignored a February deadline, Carter officially announced the boycott March 21, 1980. But it is the USOC, not the White House, that sends teams to the Olympics. In an April speech to USOC leaders, Vice President Walter Mondale painted the boycott as a moral imperative, saying "no less than the future security of the civilized world" was at stake in Afghanistan. He likened the Soviet invasion to Hitler’s Nazi Germany, and said the United States could not make the same mistake it had in 1936, when Jesse Owens led an American team to the Berlin Games. "As Joseph Goebbels boasted on the eve of the Olympics, the Reich expected the Games 'to turn the trick and create a friendly world attitude toward Nazi political, economic, and racial aims.' It worked," Mondale told the USOC. "... Neither Jesse’s achievements in Berlin nor any words spoken at the Games prevented the Reich from exploiting the Olympics toward their own brutal ends." A few hours after Mondale’s speech, the USOC agreed to Carter’s demand and said it would not send a team to Moscow. While athletes were hailed as patriots and praised for their sacrifice, that was little consolation for the harsh reality of Olympic sports. With the Games held once every four years, most athletes get only one shot when they’re in their prime. Four years earlier and they’re probably too young. Four years later and they’re probably too old. The boycott meant hundreds of athletes missed out on the opportunity to be recognized by the entire world as the best in the sports to which they’d devoted their entire lives. Given this was still in the days before professionals could compete in the Olympics, those athletes who would have won medals lost out on post-Games economic opportunities, including lucrative speaking engagements for which they’d still be in demand long after their days as an athlete had ended. Take Bill Rodgers, arguably one of the greatest distance runners ever. Rodgers was 40th in the marathon at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal. But beginning with the New York Marathon later that year, he won 15 of his next 19 races at the 26.2-mile distance, including Boston in 1978, 1979 and 1980. He set an American record at Boston in 1979, and Track & Field News ranked him No. 1 in the marathon for a third time that year. Had the United States gone to Moscow, he would have been a favorite to join Frank Shorter (1972), John Hayes (1908) and Thomas Hicks (1904) as the only U.S. men to win the Olympic marathon, a feat that would have made him a commercial superstar. But the United States didn’t go to Moscow. And by the time the Los Angeles Games arrived, Rodgers’ career was in decline. He finished eighth at the 1984 Olympic trials and didn’t even make the U.S. team for L.A. "We're simply a tool, an implement," Rodgers told the Washington Post at the time. "No one cares at all, until we can be used for their purposes. Then they can use it." At least Rodgers could still call himself an Olympian, having competed in Montreal. But there were other athletes for whom Moscow was their only chance. They remain in a weird sort of athletic purgatory, Olympians without an Olympics. "I feel like a doctor who knows the specialty, but I don't have that M.D.," wrestler Lee Kemp, who would have been the heavy favorite for gold at 74 kilograms in Moscow after winning the world title in 1978 and 1979, told the New Orleans Times-Picayune in 2010. Kemp retired after finishing second at the 1984 Olympic trials. Had the boycott accomplished what Carter hoped, maybe athletes could have taken some comfort in knowing their sacrifice had brought about change. But many of the United States’ closest allies – Britain and France among them – refused to join the boycott. The politics Carter hoped to keep out of the Olympics are now endemic to the Games. And not until February 1989, almost a decade later, would the Soviet Union leave Afghanistan. "There was not one positive," Kemp told the Times-Picayune. "Not one." Forty-four years later, it’s even more apparent Carter made the wrong decision.
