強い台風23号は13日、日本の南を東寄りに進んでいます。昼前には勢力を維持したまま伊豆諸島に最接近する見込みです。
気象庁は、電柱が倒壊したり建物の一部が飛散したりする恐れもある猛烈な風が吹く所があるとして、厳重な警戒を呼びかけています。また、大型の台風の影響で高波や高潮の恐れもあり、沿岸部では特に注意が必要です。

Bad loans in the Philippine banking system climbed to a nine-month high in August. This rise comes as lenders, squeezed by narrower margins due to falling interest rates, may have turned to riskier retail borrowers in search of higher returns.
Latest data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas showed an increase in nonperforming loans (NPLs), which are defined as debts overdue by at least 90 days. This trend highlights growing concerns about credit quality amid changing market conditions.

万博を呼び水に、観光客誘致や経済活性化につなげたいとの期待も高まっていますが、一方で誘客では「大阪独り勝ち」の傾向も見受けられています。

The presidency may have confirmed THE WHISTLER’s earlier exclusive report on the health status of the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, following the announcement that the Central Bank Governor, Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, will lead Nigeria’s delegation to the 2025 World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF) Annual Meetings in Washington, DC.
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, revealed on Sunday that Cardoso will serve as the alternate governor for Nigeria and head the country’s delegation to the meetings, which open on Monday, October 13.
“Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, the Governor of the Central Bank, will lead Nigeria’s delegation to the World Bank and International Monetary Fund Annual Meeting in Washington, DC, which opens on Monday, October 13,” the State House press release stated.
The presidency confirmed that Minister Edun is currently indisposed, and Mr. Cardoso would represent Nigeria on his behalf. Also included in the delegation is the Minister of State for Finance, Doris Uzoka-Anite.
According to the World Bank, key highlights of the Annual Meetings include the Development Committee Plenary session on October 16 and the International Monetary and Financial Committee meetings on October 17. Other events will feature regional briefings, press conferences, and forums focused on international development, the global economy, and financial markets.
This development comes just days after THE WHISTLER exclusively reported that President Bola Tinubu was considering appointing a new finance minister due to Edun’s deteriorating health condition. Our report indicated that the minister, who has been battling undisclosed health challenges for several weeks, was expected to be flown abroad for treatment.
We also reported that his temporary absence had prompted consultations within the presidency about an interim arrangement to ensure policy continuity.
“The president holds Edun in very high regard. His health challenge is unfortunate, but the government must continue to function. The priority now is his full recovery,” a senior government official told THE WHISTLER.
Appointed in August 2023, Edun has led the Tinubu administration’s economic management team and steered fiscal reforms aimed at stabilizing the economy.

**Why India’s Largest Oil Producer Has a Lower Market Cap Than Zomato**
*By Dwaipayan Roy | Oct 12, 2025, 06:21 PM*
—
**What’s the Story?**
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), India’s largest oil and gas producer, is perceived as undervalued by the market. Despite having a market capitalization of around ₹3.1 lakh crore, ONGC trails behind food delivery giant Zomato in terms of market value.
This discrepancy largely stems from the fact that ONGC’s stakes in subsidiaries and minority investments account for over a third of its total market capitalization, which the market has not fully priced in.
—
**Market Comparison: ONGC vs. Major Indian Companies**
Over the past 13 years, ONGC’s market capitalization has grown by only 26%. In contrast, other listed Indian companies have experienced phenomenal growth in valuations:
– **Reliance Industries**’ market cap surged from ₹2.43 lakh crore in July 2012 to ₹18.7 lakh crore today.
– **Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)** saw its market value rise from ₹2.42 lakh crore in July 2012 to ₹10.95 lakh crore now.
This stark contrast highlights the sluggish market growth of ONGC despite its dominant position in the oil and gas sector.
—
**Value of ONGC’s Portfolio: Stakes in Subsidiaries and Minority Investments**
ONGC holds significant stakes in several subsidiaries and other companies, yet the market has yet to fully appreciate these assets’ value:
– A **71.63% stake in Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited (MRPL)**, valued at over ₹18,000 crore.
– A **54.9% stake in Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL)**, worth approximately ₹52,770 crore.
In addition, ONGC has minority stakes in:
– **Indian Oil Corporation** – 14.2%, valued at ₹31,000 crore
– **GAIL (India) Ltd** – 5%, worth about ₹5,900 crore
Combined, the total value of ONGC’s stakes in subsidiaries and minority investments exceeds ₹1.07 lakh crore — more than a third of its current market capitalization.
—
**Government Perspective: Addressing Market Perception**
Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri recently expressed concern over the market’s undervaluation of state-owned oil public sector undertakings (PSUs). He stated that despite these PSUs’ strong profitability and significant contribution to the economy, investors harbor a “perception bias” that suppresses their market value.
Minister Puri also highlighted that over the past six years, India’s three major oil marketing companies—Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum—have collectively generated profits totaling ₹2.5 lakh crore.
—
**Conclusion**
While ONGC remains India’s largest oil producer with substantial assets and stakes in profitable subsidiaries, the market has yet to fully value its diversified portfolio. Addressing the perception bias around PSUs could unlock significant value for investors in the sector.

**WI’s Jayden Seales Fined for Inappropriate Throw at Yashasvi Jaiswal**
*By Parth Dhall | Oct 12, 2025, 06:17 PM*
West Indies pacer Jayden Seales has been fined 25% of his match fee by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for breaching its Level 1 Code of Conduct. The incident occurred on Day 1 of the ongoing 2nd Test against India at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Seales also received a demerit point, marking his second within two years—the first was against Bangladesh in December 2024.
### The Incident
The breach happened during the 29th over of India’s first innings. Seales fielded the ball on his follow-through and threw it at Indian batter Yashasvi Jaiswal, hitting him on the pads.
The ICC ruled that Seales violated Article 2.9 of its Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel. This article prohibits “throwing a ball (or any other item of cricket equipment) at or near a player in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an International Match.”
### Sanction and Hearing
Initially, match referee Andy Pycroft proposed the penalty; however, Seales contested the sanction, leading to a formal hearing. Seales argued that he was attempting to run out Jaiswal.
After reviewing replay footage from multiple angles, the match referee determined that the throw was unnecessary and inappropriate since it hit Jaiswal while the batter was safely within the crease.
### ICC Guidelines on Level 1 Breaches
According to ICC regulations, Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum fine of 50% of a player’s match fee, and up to two demerit points.
The charge against Seales was brought forward by on-field umpires Richard Illingworth and Paul Reiffel, third umpire Alex Wharf, and fourth umpire K. N. Ananthapadmanabhan.
### Match Performance
In the first innings, Seales went wicketless as India declared at 518/5 after 134.2 overs. He bowled 22 overs, conceding 88 runs, including two maidens.
Meanwhile, fellow West Indies bowlers Jomel Warrican and captain Roston Chase shared four wickets between them.
