Omans "Omanization" strategy, which requires local hiring quotas in the private sector, is the subject of final talks as India and Oman approach the completion of a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement CEPA.

In 2024–25, Indias exports to Oman were $443 billion, while its imports, which included chemicals, fertilisers, and petroleum, totalled over $6.51 billion.

G7 finance ministers and central bank governors have committed to resolving excessive global economic imbalances, highlighting the necessity of a shared framework to combat nonmarket policies that jeopardise economic stability.

The G7 also talked about reducing the cap on Russian oil prices and enforcing penalties in the event that a ceasefire in Ukraine is not achieved. The document also emphasises the importance of lowvalue goods, especially from Chinese ecommerce companies, and the resilience of supply chains. In the upcoming months, it is anticipated that the final declaration will influence international trade policy. Read More..

Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act Advances With 5% Remittance Tax Proposal

Under President Donald Trumps One Big Beautiful Bill Act, foreign remittances sent by nonU.S. nationals, including those with green cards and H1B visa

Under President Donald Trumps One Big Beautiful Bill Act, foreign remittances sent by nonU.S. nationals, including those with green cards and H1B visas, would be subject to a 5% tax. With $32 billion in remittances from the United States to India in 2023–2024, this tax, if applied at the point of transfer with no exemption level, could have a $1.6 billion financial impact on millions of Indian citizens in the United States. Along with financing for immigration enforcement, border security, and asylum fees, the law also supports Trumps larger policy goals. There are worries about the economic ramifications for U.S. allies as it has progressed in the House Budget Committee and is getting closer to a floor vote. Read More..
