China has unveiled its latest show of concern for the embattled private sector: asking citizens to call out problematic behaviour that is holding back entrepreneurs. The government will collect tip-offs on everything from barriers to market entry for private firms, to unfair competition, local protectionism and arbitrary fines, the State Council said in a social media post. Beijing will ask local officials to intervene, or send in supervision teams for more serious cases, it said. The appeal for public assistance comes as President Xi Jinping tries to promote a more welcoming environment for the private sector.

KUALA LUMPUR, June 6 (Bernama) -- Emerging geopolitical fault lines may induce sovereigns, central banks and companies in Asia Pacific (APAC) to diversify the currencies in which they raise funds, invest their reserves or invoice merchandise trade, according to Moody's Investors Service. It said in a statement today that the US dollar is unlikely to be unseated as the primary currency for international trade and reserves in the near future. 'Financial fault lines in APAC would increase reliance on domestic or regional pools of capital, which would stimulate the growth of local currency bond markets and reduce exchange rate risks for issuers.
