India's bulging pipeline of large block trades and listings such as the $3 billion IPO of Hyundai Motor's unit will draw more funds to a market whose share of global equity capital market deals hit a quarterly record this year, bankers said. A paucity of deals elsewhere in Asia will add to the impetus for capital flows into India, they added. Higher global interest rates, geopolitical tensions, as well as China's economic slowdown and its move to restrict initial public offerings (IPOs) to support its secondary markets, have led to a slump in equity dealmaking across Asia.

STORY: Disney and appointees of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis reached a settlement Wednesday to end a high-profile lawsuit over the company's long-standing special tax district in the state.Disney is one of Florida's biggest employers and the state gave it sole control of that area in 1967 to encourage Disney World's development.Then in 2022, Disney's then-CEO Bob Chapek spoke out against a DeSantis state bill to limit discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity among younger students.Critics called it the 'Don't Say Gay' law - and after Disney employees protested, Chapek said it 'should never have passed.'After that, DeSantis asked the state legislature to revoke Disney's control over the special district, and appointed a new, hand-picked board to oversee it.However, Disney sidestepped that board with a last-minute contract that cited King Charles III.It also filed a federal lawsuit against DeSantis and his allies last year."But I can tell you that Disney may have gotten everything they wanted in Florida for the last 60 years, but there's a new sheriff in town now and we are not backing down to that."DeSantis began repeatedly bashing the company he called 'woke Disney' in public appearances as he geared up for his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination.Wednesday's news of a settlement comes months since he dropped out of the race.In the federal lawsuit, Disney had accused DeSantis of 'weaponizing' government over free speech rights.A judge dismissed the suit in January, but Disney appealed. That appeal is now on pause while the two sides talk.

A mum says she was left looking like a "character from a zombie movie" after having skin cancer removed under her eye. Sarah Trushell, 38, was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma - the most common form of skin cancer - on June 28, 2023. Her dermatologist warned she likely developed it after growing up in sunny Bermuda and Cyprus - while not wearing strong enough suncream. She had surgery under her right eye to remove the cancer - leaving her with a 3in scar along her cheek. The surgeon managed to remove the cancer cells "in one go" - leaving her cancer-free without needing further treatment. Doctors haven’t said how long the scar will take to heal and Sarah is having to learn to embrace her new face in the meantime.
