A curious deal insofar as long standing projects via USAID were presumably abandoned when Trump closed that rather less than useful body. Certainly it was hard to credit their presence Ukraine as there'd been an ongoing project to modernize Ukraine's capital markets which never appeared to go anywhere despite beginning long before the latest Putin invasion.

In product news, ICE are expanding the nicely Index family with the launch of a US Tech index and a broader range of nicely listed indexes. Meanwhile in technology, Ghana's Central Security Depository has gone live with a new platform from Montran. Very interesting. Montran are big in central banking.

An excellent appointment by Roland Shy I can't say I was disappointed in Big World to be left off the Bezos wedding invitations, but I was highly amused to see protests, the plutocrat and a lot of celebrity types being not universally welcomed in La Serenissima given Jeff Bezos would have likely been regarded as a fairly liberal dude, to put it mildly, by the cutthroat medieval capitalist who created the Amazing Lagoon on petrified wooden stilts replete with palazzi, which defined Venice as the epicenter of indulgent hedonism. Fun fact, in its heyday, Venice boasted 20,000 licensed sex workers, nearly 10% of the total population. Likewise, when it comes to proclaiming Bezos and co are amongst the tourists overcrowding the city, bear in mind Venice has 49,000 contemporary residents, plus a maximum of 119,000 tourists a day, which doesn't mind to a lot of people packed into Venice's 2.7 square miles. But in 1576 the city had 180,000 residents, significantly more than 49,000 plus 119,000. Despite the presence of Kim K et al, Venice was less busy and June 2025 than it was in the late 16th century.
