<description><![CDATA[Old Mutual, the South African insurer, is to lose Jonathan Nicholls, its finance director, less than two months after its chief executive also left the company. Philip Broadley, formerly financial director at Prudential, the UK life assurer, will step into the role, according to the FT.

Lenders warned homeowners last night that they should not expect cheaper mortgage repayments even if the Bank of England cuts interest rates today, writes the Times.

Rupert Murdoch has sharply cut forecasts for his media empire, predicting News Corp will suffer double-digit declines in operating income for this fiscal year, rather than the 4-6 per cent growth previously forecast. The group behind The Times and Sun newspapers, British Sky Broadcasting and Fox blamed adverse currency swings, &quot;a pretty grim picture&quot; at its local US television stations and deteriorating advertising revenues at its UK and Australian newspapers, reports the FT.

Royal Dutch Shell is to become the first big Western oil company to move large numbers of expatriate staff into Iraq to oversee its gas joint venture, the Times has learnt.

Directors of UBS could be forced to repay bonuses they have already been awarded as Switzerland&#039;s biggest bank, which has been severely damaged by the credit crunch, comes under intense pressure over executive compensation, says the Independent.

The European Commission is investigating Germany&#039;s &acirc;‚&not;8.2bn ($10.7bn) capital injection into Commerzbank, in the first public dispute between Brussels and state authorities over an individual bank&#039;s participation in a national rescue scheme. Antitrust regulators are questioning whether Germany&#039;s second-largest bank is set to pay too low a price in exchange for the &acirc;‚&not;8.2bn of capital the government has agreed to inject, according to the FT.

Hopes for further expansion of gas storage facilities needed to help the UK weather the vagaries of global energy markets received a blow yesterday when two projects suffered serious setbacks. While construction began on an E.ON facility in Holford, Cheshire that will be able to hold 165 million cubic metres of gas - about half the country&#039;s daily demand - two other companies planning storage projects acknowledged significant delays in developing the schemes, says the Independent.

Retailers are demanding a full percentage point cut in interest rates today after annual food inflation fell by its largest amount in nearly three years in October, writes the Independent. Stephen Robertson, the director general of the British Retail Consortium, said: &quot;A one-point cut would be a great Christmas present for hard-pressed households and the kind of bold tactic that could get the economy moving.&quot;

ITV has lobbied the government to lift the bar on product placement as advertising revenues fall 9pc in the run-up to the crucial Christmas period. Product placement can be &quot;creatively rather than commercially led&quot; and will create a new income stream in a tough climate, the troubled media group argued in a submission to the Department for Culture Media and Sport, reports the Telegraph.

The world&#039;s biggest steel maker, ArcelorMittal, shocked the market yesterday when it doubled production cuts and said earnings will drop. The increasingly bleak outlook for manufacturing across the globe as the world&#039;s economy veers into recession has taken its toll on demand from Mittal&#039;s clients including builders and car makers, says the Independent.]]></description>
