New regulations are tighter, which is driving more wealthy people to live in countries like Italy, which has an annual flat tax that ringfences overseas assets.

Why Apple is playing it slow with AI
Apple is taking its time with AI. While most tech companies are racing to push out AI features as fast as they can, Apple is doing the opposite. Its big announcement – Apple Intelligence – won’t arrive for most users until 2026. That’s a long delay in a market where speed seems to matter more than quality.

It called the bundle “Apple Intelligence,” but those tools won’t be widely available any time soon. For now, they’re limited…

For $400m, the Department of Defence acquired a 15% stake in MP Materials, making it the largest shareholder in the country’s sole producer of rare-earth metals.

Why should the estate agent apologise for telling the owner the truth about the value of their property?
By Trevor Abrahmsohn, Glentree International Our biggest issue stems from fellow estate agents who deliberately elevate the vendor’s expectation of value, and this tactic is designed to outcompete their peers, some of whom dare to tell the truth. In some cases, the overzealous evaluations can exceed the real underlying value by up to 30% and this serves to distort the direction as to where values are heading in the marketplace. We all read press comments about the state of the market and price drops, but actually, if you ignore asking prices and just compare changes of real value to real…
