After months of negotiations Ukraine and a committee of its creditors (which include Franklin Templeton, an American investment house and BTG Pactual, a Brazilian one) reached a deal this week to restructure the country’s international bonds, as well as a smattering of other sorts of debt, worth about $18 billion. Payments have been pushed back, meaning that the government will not need to cough up any principal or interest on the debts in question until 2019. The principal on the bonds will also be cut by 20% on average.</p><p><div class="content-image-float-290 retina-290"><img src="http://cdn.static-economist.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/original-size/images/print-edition/20150829_FNC579.png" alt="" title=""  width="580" height="634" /></div></p><p>This is a better deal for Ukraine than many were expecting.

The interest of Monsanto, the world’s biggest seed producer, in buying Syngenta, the largest agrochemicals firm, had threatened to whittle them down to five. That raised worries about whether the reduction in competition would mean less innovation—and thus slower improvements in crop yields—as well as higher costs for farmers.</p><p>However, Syngenta played hard to get. It rebuffed a bid of $45 billion in June. And another, made on August 18th, worth around $47 billion. So, on August 26th, Monsanto walked away. But consolidation of the industry may be in prospect anyway. The takeover battle stimulated the interest of other big agricultural suppliers: BASF, another of the big six, had reportedly sought financing to make a rival offer for Syngenta. And Monsanto itself may not be done. Next year the firm may set its sights on another target, reckons John Klein, an analyst at Berenberg, a bank.</p><p></p><p>Two decades ago the industry was far more fragmented.

Mr Johnson worked as a chief-of-staff and a palace manager for various heads of state, Russian billionaires and royal families. Part of his job was to oversee the travel arrangements of his super-wealthy employers. There wasn’t space to include many of his anecdotes in the print article, but it was a fun chat.</p><p>What was fascinating was, for people for whom money really is no object, just how prosaic some of their needs were. It was not unusual for them to send an employee ahead to some remote island to install their own IT infrastructure, for example, at fantastic cost. Mr Johnson said that this was often done under the guise of cyber-security. Sometimes it was: even on beach holidays they would often bring in their own guy to work with hotel staff to make e-mail and the like completely secure. But often, he suspected, it was more to do with a fear of missing something on the box. “You could be on the most remote island possible...<a href="http://test.economist.com/blogs/oliver/2015/08/luxury-travel?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

The American economy is now thought to have grown by 3.7% at an annual rate in the second quarter, a much higher estimate than the 2.3% that was given in an initial evaluation of the quarter. After so much bad news about the Chinese economy, which has been a factor behind the meltdown of Chinese share indices, the US figure came as a relief to markets. Commodities also rallied: Brent crude soared by 10%, its biggest one-day gain in over six years, to settle above $47.50 a barrel. On August 28th Britain's statistics office left unchanged its estimate of second-quarter GDP growth in the UK economy at 2.6%.</p><p>With the American economy racing ahead, investors wondered whether the Federal Reserve might indeed raise interest rates in September, a move that the central bank had been preparing markets for but which looked increasingly unlikely given the turmoil of the past week or so.

New data are expected to show on August 28th that core CPI, the central bank’s preferred indicator of inflation, turned negative in July for the first time since the bank launched a big programme of quantitative easing (printing money to buy bonds) in April 2013 (see chart). At the time, it pledged to lift inflation to 2% in two years.</p><p>The news will heap further pressure on the BoJ to ease monetary policy yet more this year, as will worries about Chinese growth. The fact that Japan’s economy shrank by 1.6% in the second quarter on an annualised basis adds to the concerns. The central bank is currently buying about ¥80 trillion ($670 billion) of long-term Japanese government bonds (JGBs) a year, or twice the annual issuance. It now holds over ¥300 trillion of JGBs, or nearly a third of all outstanding bonds.</p><p></p><p>Mr Kuroda’s excuse for deflation’s apparent return is that the falling oil price has pushed down core CPI, which excludes fresh food but...<a href="http://test.economist.com/news/finance-and-economics/21662606-life-keeps-getting-harder-japans-central-bankers-core-concern?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

It is blessed with cascading waterfalls, tennis courts, pools and a Spanish-style villa. Despite such enticing features, the island languished on the market for three years, before selling in July for a mere $14.5m—half the original asking price.</p><p>Little Bokeelia is not the only island that is proving hard to shift. In the Bahamas, where prices per acre are among the world’s highest, hundreds of atolls lie unbought.

The collapsing oil price has slashed Nigeria’s export earnings. Foreign reserves have fallen from more than $40 billion early last year to just over $30 billion now. In response Mr Emefiele (pictured) devalued the local currency, the naira, in November and again in February. The devaluations are stoking inflation. Like many other central bankers in commodity-exporting countries, he is faced with the unenviable choice of raising rates despite the damage to an already faltering economy, or leaving them be despite rising inflation and a swooning currency. Unlike other central bankers, however, Mr Emefiele has decided to compound the awkwardness of his position by getting involved in industrial policy as well.</p><p>In June the central bank said it would not provide foreign exchange for 41 categories of imports, ranging from wheelbarrows to private jets. The idea, Mr Emefiele says, is both to conserve dollars and to stimulate local manufacturing. “Central banks in developing countries like ours cannot sit idly by and concentrate only on price and monetary...<a href="http://test.economist.com/news/finance-and-economics/21662603-nigerias-central-bank-pioneers-new-method-shore-up-local?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

Villagers rely on irrigation to grow maize, potatoes and spinach. Informal and often woolly codes govern how much water each farmer diverts to their own fields, and how much they leave for their neighbours downstream. Some farmers, naturally, turn out to be more grasping than others. Economists typically see such decisions as irreducible: there is no accounting for individuals’ values and preferences. But a new study* investigates why there is such variation in generosity among Mufindi’s farmers.</p><p>The researchers asked other villagers to rank each farmer’s social status on a scale of one to four. Then they invited the farmers to take part in a game in which participants had to decide how much water they would take under different scenarios. Participants were paid small sums, which varied according to how well they did in the game. They received more money if they reaped a bigger harvest by taking more than their share of water, but less if the other villagers fined them for violating water-sharing...<a href="http://test.economist.com/news/finance-and-economics/21662596-new-paper-asks-why-some-tanzanian-farmers-are-more-selfish-others?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

By 2002 eBay had hosted nearly $15 billion of transactions and had more registered users than Britain had people. Yet the fad for online auctions faded almost as quickly as it appeared. Only 20% of sales on eBay, which turns 20 on September 3rd, now involve auctions.</p><p>At eBay’s inception, users could sell things only by auction. This was tremendously exciting for economists, who love the things for their ability to magic prices out of thin air and to allocate goods efficiently by determining who values them most highly. The main obstacle to holding auctions is the cost of bringing together enough interested buyers and sellers. But eBay made connecting buyers and sellers cheap. Without it, that broken laser pointer may well have languished unsold.</p><p></p><p>EBay also benefited from a first-mover advantage.

One in three railway bridges in Germany is over 100 years old, as are half of London’s water mains. In America the average bridge is 42 years old and the average dam 52. The American Society of Civil Engineers rates around 14,000 of the country’s dams as “high hazard” and 151,238 of its bridges as “deficient”. This crumbling infrastructure is both dangerous and expensive: traffic jams on urban highways cost America over $100 billion in wasted time and fuel each year; congestion at airports costs $22 billion and another $150 billion is lost to power outages.</p><p>The B20, the business arm of the G20, a club of big economies, estimates that the global backlog of spending needed to bring infrastructure up to scratch will reach $15 trillion-20 trillion by 2030. McKinsey, a consultancy, reckons that in 2007-12 investment in infrastructure in rich countries was about 2.5% of GDP a year when it should have been 3.5%. If anything, the problem is becoming more acute as some governments whose finances have been racked by the crisis cut back. In 2013 in the euro zone, general...<a href="http://test.economist.com/news/finance-and-economics/21662593-historic-opportunity-improve-infrastructure-cheap-danger?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

Supporters of the Base Erosion and Profit-Shifting (BEPS) project, being worked on by the OECD, argue that it will bind multinationals to a consistent set of global tax rules, providing them with less licence than they now have to short-change governments through artful use of loopholes in national laws. Sceptics worry that it could only lead to chaos if countries adopt the new guidelines to differing degrees, or if some governments conclude they are too soft, and take unilateral action to stop tax revenue on profits being siphoned abroad.</p><p>With two months to go before the club of rich and middle-income countries presents its plan to the G20 for approval, much of its detail remains unclear. But no one doubts that, with so many clashing national interests at stake, there are limits to what can be achieved. Discord has been evident lately, even among allies: in June a US Treasury official accused Britain and Australia of undermining international agreement by “going their own way”. One beef is over Britain’s new “diverted profits” tax, which imposes a levy on profits routed to tax havens through “contrived...<a href="http://test.economist.com/news/business/21662552-proposals-consistent-global-rules-company-tax-cause-worries-all-round-patently?fsrc=rss">Continue reading</a>]]></description>
