The SIB has also been investigating the trade in copper in liaison with the US Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).Enquiries may be redoubled into the scandal that hit Chile’s state copper giant Codelco in 1995 when it lost $170m on unauthorised LME trading. Its top dealer has denied fraud charges.Mr Akiyama, referring to Hamanaka’s secret book, said it recorded trades which were about twice the amount a year shown in official paperwork Mr Hamanaka processed for the company.Sumitomo’s annual copper trading volume in 1995 was $9.4 bn, the Asahi Shimbun said.Mr Akiyama said Sumitomo only learned of what was going on when Hamanaka confessed on 5 June to his rogue trading and showed company officials the secret book. Mr Akiyama said the trader was able to get away with his unauthorised dealings for so long because papers from banks he used in his trading transactions, which should have been sent to the company’s financial department, were instead sent directly to Mr Hamanaka.The company was only fully alerted to Mr Hamanaka’s activities when bank documents meant for the trader were mistakenly sent to the company’s financial department, the Asahi said.. Sock Shop, Red or Dead and Contessa, three subsidiaries in the failed Facia stores group, have been sold by receivers, helping to save more than 1,000 jobs. The sales, announced yesterday, follow a separate purchase by Carlton International, the luggage manufacturer, of branches of Salisbury’s, another part of Facia’s former empire.
About 75 outlets in the Sock Shop chain, employing 500 staff, are being sold for a “substantial” but undisclosed sum to Jumper, a UK retail chain based in Carnforth, Lancashire. About a dozen shops were not included in the sale.Red or Dead, one of the UK’s leading fashion chains, has been sold back to its founders and former owners, Wayne and Gerardine Hemmingway, preserving more than 100 jobs.Contessa, the UK’s largest specialist lingerie retailer, is being acquired by Chancerealm Group, owned by Theo Phaphitis.

The deal safeguards some 400 jobs in 80 of the 120 outlets being sold.Fifteen months ago Mr Phaphitis bought the Ryman stationery chain from KPMG, which was acting as receivers to the failed Pentos Group.Tony Thompson, of accountants KPMG, lead receiver to Facia, said: “We have kept the stores open in the belief that this was vital to preserving the businesses. We have now been able to sell the bulk of the Facia stores in receivership and thereby save nearly 1,100 jobs.”We only finished the negotiations late on Saturday evening after a long day of talks. We are very pleased to have saved so many jobs and preserve such well-known High Street names.”Fellow receivers Grant Thornton said on Saturday that Carlton International had bought 52 branches of the Salisbury’s handbag, costume jewellery and suitcase chain for an undisclosed sum.KPMG said that the purchase – a week after Swiss-based Mister Minit snapped up 39 stores – brought the total number of Salisbury shops sold to 91, with Grant Thornton still seeking buyers for around 80 more.Grant Thornton said it understood that Carlton International intended to keep all 300 staff in the shops concerned, along with the Salisbury’s name.Grant Thornton partner Maurice Withall said: “We still have a number of offers of interest in the remaining stores and we will be entering into discussions with the interested parties next week.”Mr Thompson added that KPMG expected to sell Oakland, the men’s fashionwear chain, by the middle of this week and also hoped to find a buyer for Torq, the jewellery business.”We have now sold the bulk of the Facia Group retail outlets and it appears likely that secured creditors will be paid in full,” he said.. Insurers preparing for a pounds 10bn boom in sales of long-term care policies to the elderly are set to confound the Government by opposing its plans not to impose tight regulation on the industry. Despite claims by Stephen Dorrell, the Health Minister, that controls would “inhibit innovation and the development of new products”, insurers said yesterday they wanted long-term care to be brought under the Financial Services Act.
The Association of British Insurers, which had previously opposed tougher regulation, is due to issue its own proposals this week.A spokesman said yesterday: “We have decided that the sale of such products should be controlled under the FSA.”David Robinson, head of sales and marketing at Scottish Provident, said: “We believe strongly that the public must be reassured that legislation governing any form of partnership arrangement [between the Government and insurers] has been thought out thoroughly before it is introduced.” He added that selling of such plans should be regulated by the Personal Investment Authority, the financial watchdog.Legal & General and Prudential, two of Britain’s leading insurers, also said they were in favour of effective regulation of the market.Research by Munich Re, a leading insurer, said last month that the market for long-term care products could be worth up to pounds 10bn a year. Sales of home-income plans, where homeowners surrender part of the equity in their home in return for a guaranteed income in old age, could be worth up to pounds 100bn, some estimates suggest.The insurers’ initiative in calling for tough regulation is aimed at preventing a repeat of the pensions scandal, in which 1.5 million people were wrongly advised to buy a personal pension.The proposal to boost the merits of private cover follows increasing anger among many elderly people and their children that they are being forced to sell off their only assets to fund the costs of care.Last month, Mr Dorrell issued a consultation paper, in which the Department of Health proposes that for each pounds 1-worth of cover bought by a policyholder, local authorities will disregard pounds 1.50 of assets when means-testing elderly people for long-term care.When added to the pounds 10,000 in assets disregarded by the authority when means-testing individuals, a one-off premium of pounds 7,000 might allow a person to protect a house worth pounds 60,000 from having to be sold before the council has to help out.However, the Government said last month that it felt there was little need to regulate the new industry because this was likely to stifle innovation and competition.Consumer groups have argued that without controls on how they are sold, long-term care policies could be targeted at vulnerable people, who may be frightened into taking out the wrong plan.. Lord Hollick, chief executive of United News & Media has decreed an “open-plan” office on the eighth floor of United’s Blackfriars headquarters, although the Labour peer has kept a private office for himself.

The new layout is aimed at creating what one insider calls an “open and accessible environment” at United, reminiscent of the offices of the old MAI, Lord Hollick’s media and financial services company, which earlier this year merged with United.
Significantly, Lord Stevens, United’s chairman, remains in his palatial office on the ninth floor, fuelling speculation that the Tory peer is no longer calling the shots at United, owners of the Express titles, regional newspapers and a conference division.The new arrangements strike some insiders as the confirmation of Lord Hollick’s growing power at United, and the increasing isolation of the Lord Stevens, who ran the newspaper group for 15 years.Within the management area, which takes up half the eighth floor, executives are free to roam, and have access to all areas save the private offices of Lord Hollick and his senior staff. However, there is what one insider calls a “ring of steel” around the open area, as a way of securing confidential documents.It was within this space that United’s highly secretive plans to bid for the television rights to the Premier League were finalised. The project, which included a proposal to offer a range of digital television services, has now been shelved, following the deal reached between the league and BSkyB earlier this month.Says a senior United executive: “There are really two theories about security and confidentiality. Some companies just lock all confidential material in safe in the chief executive’s office. We prefer to have a more open environment, at least for the senior people.”Beyond its significance as an indication of relations between the two peers, the open-plan concept is at the heart of a raging debate in management consultancy circles about corporate efficiency. According to one school, much influenced by US experience, the open plan encourages more communication, a flatter, more efficient management structure and less friction between various layers of management.

Other experts argue, however, that executives need private space in order to concentrate.One US advertising agency has no private offices at all – nor even any desks. Staff are equipped with lightweight portable phones, and can make use of couches and tables spread out in the open space.Media companies in the UK are more likely than most to have an open-plan environment – influenced, perhaps, by the layout of most newspapers, where only the very senior staff have private offices. Capital Radio, which is moving from its cramped headquarters in Euston Road to Leceister Square, is considering using an open-plan system, at least for most managers. But Chrysalis, for instance, which owns radio station Heart 102, has stuck with the traditional layout.. Andrew Tuckey, deputy chairman of Barings when it crashed last year, is being asked to head up the investment banking arm of Credit Lyonnais. Jean Peyrelavade, chairman of the French bank and a close friend of Tuckey, is keen to hire the corporate financier to spearhead Credit Lyonnais Capital Markets’s expansion in London.
It is unclear whether Tuckey is willing to take the job – he was not available for comment yesterday – and it is also unclear how his banking peers would regard the move if he did.

Agana touched in a long throw from Andrew Legg to give Howard Kendall’s side the lead. Panthers were not helped by losing their American, Chris Fite, two minutes into the game with an ankle injury.. Tony Agana and Devon White scored the goals that gave the First Division strugglers Notts County victory in the Anglo-Italian Cup, their first trophy at Wembley. Towers’ American, Tony Windless, scored 25 of his 27-point total in the second half.Doncaster Panthers’ hopes of winning the title ended with an upset 98- 80 defeat at Chester Jets, who are second from the bottom of the league. The Budweiser League title went up for grabs last night, with London Towers most likely to snatch the championship from the long-time leaders Sheffield Sharks, who lost 74-71 at home to London Leopards.

The Towers, who defeated the Derby Bucks 92-84 on Saturday, are now four points behind Sheffield with each club having four games remaining to play.
Two three-throws from Karl Brown sealed victory for the Leopards, who went into the game without their suspended coach, Billy Mims, and with only one American, following the two-year ban on DeCarlo Deveaux following his involvement in the brawl at Derby two weeks ago.Brown scored 10 of the Leopards’ first 15 points, including three three- pointers, to inspire a victory which gives their London rivals hopes of winning their first championship.After leading 56-35 at half-time the Towers withstood a strong Derby fightback, capped by a three-pointer from Carl Gonder, which cut London’s lead to 84-78. Trailing 33-20, England produced a final flurry to send Stuart Potter over in the corner.Natal: Tries Allan, Small; Conversion Honiball; Penalties Honiball 6; Drop goal Honiball. England A: Tries Hunter, Potter; Penalties Grayson 4; Drop goal Grayson.NATAL: H Reece-Edwards; J Small, P Mller, D Muir, C van der Westhuizen; H Honiball, K Putt; R Kempson, J Allan, A Garvey, M Andrews, S Atherton, W Bartmann (capt), G Teichmann, D Kriese.ENGLAND A: P Hull (Bristol); I Hunter (Northampton), D Hopley (Wasps), S Potter (Leicester), J Sleightholme (Bath); P Grayson, M Dawson (Northampton); R Hardwick (Coventry), M Regan (Bristol), D Garforth (Leicester), G Archer (Newcastle Gosforth), R West (Gloucester), J Hall (Bath, capt), A Diprose (Saracens), N Back (Leicester).. Pieter Muller was held up just short of the English line, but John Allan picked up and was driven over by his colleagues.Three more penalties saw Natal leading 16-12 just before the interval, when Hull produced some magic in his own 22 to slip three tackles and send the ball spinning out to the right, Ian Hunter finally going over in the corner to give England A a 17-16 lead at the interval.Honiball’s boot put Natal back in charge in the opening 10 minutes of the second half and, with England tiring, James Small went over in the corner after some excellent approach work from Wahl Bartmann. Then Paul Hull fumbled inside his own 22 and the Natal forwards were quick to seize the advantage. Both sides scored two tries, but the England A fly-half Paul Grayson came off second best to Honiball with 15 points from four penalties and a drop-goal.
England took the lead with the first of Grayson’s penalties.

He and Honiball then traded kicks to make it 6-6 midway through the first half. He landed six penalties, a conversion and a drop goal after taking over the kicking duties from Hugh Reece-Edwards, who had missed two early penalties. The Frenchman Bruno Trouble observed that it might be better to abandon the semis and just let TNZ tune up its two boats in preparation to beat the US. The Aussies may not agree, but the bookies would.AMERICA’S CUP (San Diego): Citizen Cup, semi-final, day one: Pact ‘95 bt America3, 32sec. Louis Vuitton Cup, semi-final, race one: oneAustralia bt Nippon Challenge, 2min 39sec; Team New Zealnd bt Tag Heuer, 2:15.. Henry Honiball, the former Springbok fly-half, kicked England A to defeat with a 23-point haul in a scrappy game dominated by the boot in Durban on Saturday.

The second Team New Zealand boat was devastating.Nor did John Bertrand have any trouble in his remaining oneAustralia in sailing powerfully away from John Cutler in Nippon Challenge. The first whistle of panic was the appointment of a man, as David Dellenbaugh took over as starting helmsman and tactician for the first race of the semi-finals of the defender Citizen Cup from Jennifer “JJ” Isler following orchestrated group approaches by her team-mates to Koch.
They still lost, though Dellenbaugh wanted to take the blame for that, and Leslie Egnot, newly appointed as skipper even though Koch had said there would not be one, said they just did not have the experience to win and it was important to them all to win.Egnot said she was having trouble steering the new boat, the Kiwi accent of her adopted country even stronger than usual, but the New Zealanders she has grown up with were showing in the first race of the Louis Vuitton Cup semis that the defenders had better put their house in order and quickly.Russell Coutts gave the older of his two boats its first outing by beating his Auckland rival Chris Dickson, who had promised an all guns blazing performance. So, now we know. The America’s Cup is no arena for novices: any fault will be mercilessly exposed in the searing spotlight, and the all- woman experiment that 1992 winner Bill Koch thought could blow away myths about yachting skills is fast running aground.

I’m studies aj burnett not sure cc sabathia understand about the business impact, there wasn’t very much after the first Marriott bombing (in 2003) but maybe because executives were targeted or have become the victims of this one there’ll be an impact there.Q – What are you thoughts on the level of sophistication of these attacks?A – I think this one would have required really long-term planning because they must have first surveyed the targets repeatedly. They would have had to have raised the funds including the funds for staying at five-star luxury hotels. So my guess is that this one was more expensive than some of the earlier bombings. And we know that the Australian embassy bomb (in 2004), for example, probably cost around $8,000-$9,000.Q – We’ve just had the elections and Manchester United, a very popular team, were due to play. Do you think the timing was carefully planned as well?A – It’s very difficult if you look at past explanations of the bombings here to target an attack for a specific time, you can do it in a rough general area, but to target it for example for the Manchester United team’s arrival would be very difficult So that’s probably not very likely.

It might have been possible to try and get an attack around election time, but in the past Noordin’s group hasn’t been particularly worried by Indonesian political dynamics and they tend to attack when they are ready to attack.Q – By going after a target that’s been attacked before and clearly had fairly high security (the Marriott) does this suggest there is a clear message from the perpetrators that they can get you anywhere?A – I think that’s got to be one of their objectives The other is simply ‘to make Western nations tremble’ alex rodriguez . That was the phrase that Noordin’s group used after the Australian embassy bombing.Q – Do you think these attacks reflect more careful targeting in that it seems more foreigners were killed this time?A – I think again this group would have tried to learn from it’s mistakes in the past derek jeter autographed baseball . They would have almost certainly tried to reduce the number of Muslims killed.Q – Do you think this is likely to be an isolated attack or could mean a new wave of attacks.A – It’s impossible to know, but I think the police have got to be on the trail of the perpetrators because there was a lot of activity by the police in Cilacap (Central Java) in the weeks before this attack took place derek jeter signed baseball . And there must be some reason for the intensified activities so maybe they were on the verge of making arrests when this happened.Q – President Yudhoyono hinted at a press conference that he saw himself as a possible target?A – It’s true that many of the radical groups that we know to still be active frequently talk about Indonesian officials as “thaghut,” that is anti-Islamic, and they see those officials as being enemies of Islam because they refuse to apply Islamic law george steinbrenner .

But it’s doubtful you would have an attack on a major western target like this and have it simultaneously be also an attack on Indonesian officials.Q – If it does turn out to be Islamic militants, what are the sort of learning points for authorities?A – I think what it underscores that there needs to be a lot more attention to the very small number of Islamic schools that we know have become centers of communication for these groups alex rodriguez bio . It’s not so much what is taught at these schools or who the teachers are it’s that there’s a small number of schools that are affiliated to the militant network where fugitives are likely to come and seek refuge where there’s likely to be interaction between seriously dangerous extremists.(Editing by Alex Richardson) World Indonesia graig nettles autographed baseball .

Nobody in his right mind would be attracted to a film by any of them. That penalises Premiership teams since for European purposes Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish players are considered ‘foreign’ and United also have Eric Cantona, Andrei Kanchelskis and Peter Schmeichel.

He is still involved in local politics and hopes to regain his seat one day. Fee income grew 8 per cent, but Lloyds defended this as mainly a growth in business volume.Small business lending produced a substantial loss. James Latham, Leeside Wharf, Mount Pleasant Hill, London E5 9NG (tel 081-806 3333), a family firm of timber merchants established in 1756, supplies specialist woods. It is just one example of the 10 per cent of all SSSIs damaged each year. She is not on the Civil List herself, but her husband, Prince Andrew, is: last year he received pounds 249,000 from the public purse.Because they are the Queen’s grandchildren, the Duchess’s two offspring are watched over by two police bodyguards, even on her many holidays. Apart from missing out on career opportunities, they are worried about status and pay.

It must tell British Gas now that it will not be persuaded that 1998 is too soon to let other companies compete nationally to provide gas to British homes Ministers must stick to that target. The man who finally engineered his departure, the original fat cat of British industry, Richard Giordano, British Gas’s non-executive chairman, also has some questions to answer: namely why did it take so long for him to act when many outside the company realised more than a year ago that change was needed?The de-merger of British Gas into two companies is a step forward as far as the consumer is concerned. It will leave one component, British Gas Energy, to concentrate on providing the most competitive deal for 19 million customers. That the company could even attempt this is a sign of how far from being a fully fledged private company it is.Mr Brown had to go But he did not act alone. It failed to get the Government to bail it out of those costly long-term contracts that commit it to buying gas from other North Sea producers at prices that are now uneconomic.

When we were invited to buy shares in British Gas it was agreed it would be a monopoly for 25 years It should have been a licence to print money. It is a measure of how badly managed the company has been that shareholders have seen so little in return for their investment.Ministers have only gradually introduced more competition. British Gas persuaded ministers not to press ahead with earlier plans drawn up by the Monopolies and Mergers Commission for the company to be split up. Ministers have only slowly woken up to the mistakes they made when they privatised the company. Mr Brown and the old-style British Gas culture he embodied are not designed for that world, although yesterday’s decision to split the company in two is in part designed to hive off the liability of uneconomic long-term gas supply contracts.
The blame for creating the morass of misjudgement that has characterisedBritish Gas in the last few years, should not be confined to Mr Brown.

With competition, further cuts of up to 20 per cent are predicted. Prices adjusted for inflation are already at the level they were at in the early 1980s. By 1998, a string of oil and electricity companies will be competing with British Gas to supply households. Mr Brown’s retirement and the break-up of British Gas may offer consumers some hope. Beginning in the South-west this spring, domestic consumers will have a choice of gas suppliers That should mean lower prices and better service. Privatisation was meant to usher in a world of competition where executives would be judged on the merits of their performance. Even in his departure that ethic does not yet seem to have caught up with Mr Brown.
