The BBC has named former Google executive Matt Brittin as its new director-general, as the public broadcaster faces challenges to its funding model and a lawsuit from President Donald Trump over a misleading edit. Brittin will take the role from May 18, the BBC said in a statement on Wednesday. The post will be filled on an interim basis by Rhodri Talfan Davies, a BBC board member. Predecessor Tim Davie was in post for about five years and resigned last November over a Panorama documentary that misrepresented Trump’s comments. “Matt’s passion for the BBC, his understanding of the challenges facing the organization, his commitment to its independence and his determination to maintain the BBC’s position as one of the country’s greatest national assets were critical factors in the Board’s decision to appoint him as the 18th Director-General,” said BBC chairman Samir Shah in a statement. Read More: Former Google Executive Set to Shake Up BBC as Director-General The expected appointment of Brittin, 57, has been met with cautious optimism so far. Former Google colleagues describe him as a popular, savvy leader, while peers and industry figures have praised his understanding of both traditional and digital media. Hiring a longtime technology executive signals a shift for the BBC, the oldest and biggest public service broadcaster in the world. Brittin is one of the first appointees to the job without longtime experience at the organization, or as a journalist. The broadcaster is defending a lawsuit filed in Florida by Trump, after the makers of an episode of its flagship Panorama program spliced together separate parts of his speech on Jan 6. 2021. Those edits gave the impression that the president called for violence ahead of an attack on the US Capitol that day. Former director-general Davie and the BBC’s Chief Executive Officer for news, Deborah Turness , resigned after details of the misleading edit emerged in a leaked memo. Shah apologized and said the edit “wrongly ga...

Investors should not panic amid the current oil supply disruption but should ensure they have diversified inflation hedges in their portfolios, Sebastian Page, head of global multi-asset and chief investment officer at T. Rowe Price, said. Page, who oversees more than $500B in assets for the firm, told CNBC that while the Strait of Hormuz crisis will eventually end, the uncertainty around timing makes proper hedging essential. In the interview with CNBC, Page acknowledged the unprecedented nature of the current supply shock. “There’s no historical playbook for this kind of supply disruption,” he said, noting that forecasts for when the Strait of Hormuz will reopen vary widely. While some betting markets suggest a 40% chance of reopening by April, other professional forecasters give only a 1% probability of reopening by April 10 and a 60% chance the crisis extends beyond May. Page emphasized that T. Rowe Price is not dramatically shifting its investment strategy despite the turmoil. “In our asset allocation committee, we actually went into this: hedging for inflation risk, neutral between stocks and bonds, and long diversification,” he explained. The firm maintains overweight positions in small caps and international non-U.S. equities, viewing small-cap valuations as “a coiled spring” ready to benefit once the crisis passes. The CIO outlined his firm’s approach to navigating the current environment. “To get through this, we have been hedging for inflation, long real-asset equities, stocks of commodity-linked companies, and energy companies,” Page said. He also noted the firm is short duration, holding more cash than long bonds, and suggested investors without commodity exposure should consider adding it to their portfolios. Page challenged the conventional wisdom that Treasury bonds are sufficient portfolio hedges. “People think treasuries hedge a portfolio. Well, they don’t if you get an inflation shock,” he warned. His key message for investors: “Diversify your hed...

200mm/E+ via Getty Images An Israeli strike on Iran’s Caspian Sea port of Bandar Anzali disrupted a key supply route used by Russia and Iran to transfer weapons, including drones and ammunition, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the situation. The attack, Israel’s first in the inland sea, hit naval facilities, vessels and infrastructure tied to military logistics. The Caspian corridor has been a critical link for moving Iranian drones and munitions to Russia, while also supporting broader trade between the two countries. The strike highlights growing cooperation between Moscow and Tehran during the war, as well as Israel’s efforts to disrupt those ties. It may also have knock-on effects for civilian supply chains, including food and energy, given the overlap between military and commercial shipping in the region. While the operation could temporarily slow weapons flows, analysts expect Russia and Iran to reroute shipments through alternative channels. Moscow condemned the attack, warning against further escalation in the Caspian, the Journal reported.
