Bloomberg Daybreak: Europe Edition19 Des 2025

EU's €90B Ukraine Loan, Shooting Suspect Found Dead, Why €23B Empire Fell

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.

On today's podcast:

(1) European Union leaders reached an agreement to loan Ukraine €90 billion ($106 billion) for the next two years, aiming to strengthen Kyiv’s hand at the negotiating table and keep the war-torn country afloat.

(2) The Bank of Japan raised its benchmark interest rate to the highest in 30 years and said more increases are in the pipeline if conditions allow, in a sign of growing conviction that it can attain the stable inflation target it has pursued for more than a decade.

(3) The Bank of England cut interest rates but joined a wave of other central banks in warning that the speed and scale of future reductions is now in the balance.

(4) Officials have found the dead body of the suspected shooter in a Brown University rampage and the murder of a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor in his Boston-area home.

(5) TikTok’s long-delayed plan to separate from Chinese parent ByteDance Ltd. was put in motion Thursday when the video sharing sensation said it’s being bought by a group of buyers led by Oracle.

(6) Wells Fargo was sued by a former manager who says he was fired for pushing the bank to create a more diverse workforce and objecting to its practice of interviewing minority applicants for jobs that were already filled.

(7) As shoppers at London’s renowned Selfridges department store soaked in the festive mood ahead of Christmas in 2021, the billionaire Weston family were closing in on the sale of the landmark. But instead the family got caught up in the collapse of Benko’s €23 billion empire less than two years after the Selfridges deal.
