HSBC's Jean-Gilles Hedry there speaking to Bloomberg this morning.

His radical restructuring has won praise from investors and driven the bank's shares up almost 90% since he took the helm.

It means the bonus pool at Europe's largest bank is up 10% to $3.93 billion, the highest in at least a decade.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says the EU will deliver on its €90 billion aid for Ukraine one way or another.

The EU has been repeatedly blocked by Hungary from passing an aid package and further sanctions on Russia.

Speaking in Kiev, marking four years of the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, von der Leyen stressed that Ukraine would receive the funding.

European Commission President's words come as Ukraine is set to run out of funding in a matter of weeks.

Peace talks with Russia have also stalled, with both sides seemingly prepared for a long war of attrition.
