Bayes Market Launches New Social Prediction Platform, Transforming Human Insight into Tradable Asset
In an era marked by AI, deglobalization, and geopolitical uncertainty, Bayes Market opens a fresh arena beyond traditional asset—a platform where insights about the future can be priced, traded, and monetized.
Trading on Probability, Filling Gaps in Traditional Finance
Bayes Market operates as a prediction market not relying on a single underlying asset, but around information. Users of prediction market trade on probabilities of events from geopolitics, climate to K-pop group comebacks base on their own believes.
Each contract's price reflects the market's collective assessment of an event's probability. Instead of forcing investors to hedge indirectly via ETFs or options, Bayes Market offers a direct hedge on the event itself, addressing a critical blind spot. Users can turn tomorrow's uncertainty into today's actionable trade, in a granular way.
Asian Dynamic Meets AMM
Bayes Market employs an Automated Market Maker (AMM) to deliver low‑slippage, high‑transparency trading experience. At the same time, the platform focuses on long‑tail events, making prediction approachable, diverse, and culturally relevant especially in Asia.
The team believes that everyone should be able to trade and create events that of their own interest. Bayes Market covers entertainment, pop culture, and social issues beyond macroeconomics and politics, embedding prediction in our daily lives. This unlocks the mass market adoption beyond crypto users.
Decentralized Market Creation
Bayes Market will soon let users initiate their own prediction events, whether it is a dating reality show or inflation. This challenges the existing paradigm where centralized institutions define tradable markets, turning prediction markets into a grassroots catalyst of shared reality. Stay tuned for Bayes Market's next version update.
An Ecosystem for a 'Cognition‑as‑Value' Market Economy
Bayes Market is now officially launched, supporting Bayes Points and USDC, with Points incentive programs. The platform invites data providers, content platforms, communities, and Web3 innovators to co‑create an ecosystem where cognition itself becomes a new type of value.
About Bayes Market
Bayes Market is founded by a cross‑disciplinary team specializing in market design, digital media, algorithmic modeling, and decentralized finance, dedicated to building a fairer and smarter information market.

Hong Kong's CK Hutchison seeks Chinese investor to join Panama Ports deal
HONG KONG (AP) — A Hong Kong conglomerate that's selling ports at the Panama Canal said Monday it may seek a Chinese investor to join a consortium of buyers, a move that could please Beijing but bring more U.S. scrutiny to the geopolitically fraught deal. CK Hutchison Holdings' initial plan to sell its port assets to a group that includes U.S. investment firm BlackRock Inc. pleased President Donald Trump, who has alleged that China interferes with the critical shipping lane's operations in Panama. However, they apparently angered Beijing and drew a review from Chinese anti-monopoly authorities. A Beijing-backed newspaper posted scathing commentaries about the deal, with one describing it as a betrayal of all Chinese. Beijing's offices overseeing Hong Kong affairs have reposted some of these commentaries, widely seen as an indication of Chinese leaders' stance. A Hutchison subsidiary has operated ports at both ends of the Panama Canal since 1997. After months of uncertainty brought by tensions between Washington and Beijing, Hutchison said in a statement that the exclusive negotiations period with the consortium has expired. However, it added 'the Group remains in discussions with members of the consortium with a view to inviting major strategic investor from the PRC to join as a significant member of the consortium,' referring to the People's Republic of China. It said they needed to change the membership of the consortium and the structure of the transaction for the deal to be able to pass reviews by 'all relevant authorities." The awkward position Hutchison found itself in for months highlights the challenges Hong Kong business elites face in navigating Beijing's expectations of national loyalty, especially when relations between China and the United States are strained. Hong Kong has overhauled its electoral system to ensure the city is run by 'patriots.' CK Hutchison is owned by the family of Hong Kong's richest man, Li Ka-shing. It announced March 4 that it would sell all its shares in Hutchison Port Holdings and in Hutchison Port Group Holdings to the consortium that also includes BlackRock subsidiary Global Infrastructure Partners and Terminal Investment Limited, a subsidiary of the Mediterranean Shipping Company. In May, Hutchinson co-managing director, Dominic Lai told shareholders that Terminal Investment was the main investor. Its parent company is led by Italian shipping scion Diego Aponte, whose family reportedly has a longstanding relationship with Li's. The initial deal, valued at nearly $23 billion including $5 billion in debt, would have given the consortium control over 43 ports in 23 countries, including the ports of Balboa and Cristobal, located at either end of the canal. That agreement also required approval from Panama's government. The deadline for their exclusive negotiation period ended on July 27.

SMU issues its inaugural Sustainability Bond, raising S$150 million to advance environmental and social initiatives
SINGAPORE, July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Singapore Management University (SMU) today announced that it has completed the issuance of a S$150 million Sustainability Bond. The proceeds of the Bond are earmarked for financing and refinancing green and social projects that deliver clear environmental and social benefits, as guided by SMU's newly established Sustainable Financing Framework. The Sustainability Bond, the first such bond by an Autonomous University (AU) in Singapore, was issued on 28 July 2025 at a coupon rate of 2.022% and will mature on 28 July 2032. The Sole Lead Manager and Bookrunner for the bond issuance was Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC). SMU President, Professor Lily Kong, said, "This inaugural Sustainability Bond is more than just a financial instrument — it reflects our belief that universities must play a leading role in building a more sustainable and inclusive future. We've been guided by our Sustainability Blueprint since 2022 and are proud to contribute to the priorities set out in the Singapore Green Plan 2030. As a university, we take seriously our role in shaping future-ready graduates who are not only intellectually agile, but also attuned to the pressing challenges of our time. By embedding sustainability in our operations and investments, we hope to lead with purpose and conviction." "Launching this bond in our 25th anniversary year feels especially meaningful — it signals our intent to grow with purpose, and to leave a positive, lasting impact on the communities we serve," she added. SMU Sustainable Finance Framework In June 2025, SMU established a holistic and comprehensive Sustainable Financing Framework which aligns SMU's financial practice with its sustainability goals (outlined in the SMU Sustainability Blueprint) and embodies SMU's deep commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. The Framework outlines the criteria and guidelines for SMU to allocate and manage the proceeds raised from sustainable finance transactions. Developed in collaboration with its sole sustainability advisor, OCBC, the Framework provides the foundation for SMU to engage in sustainable finance transactions such as green, social and sustainability bonds and loans. It guides SMU's issuance of sustainable finance debt instruments to finance or refinance projects and assets that deliver measurable environmental and/ or social benefits. These include green buildings, energy efficiency upgrades, green infocommunications technology infrastructure, sustainable water and waste management, as well as programmes that promote inclusive education, knowledge sharing, and mental health and wellbeing. Mr Lim Boon Wee, SMU's Senior Vice President, Administration, said, "This bond issuance is a strategic milestone for SMU as we align our financial strategy with our sustainability goals, and channel capital to where it matters most. It enables us to finance infrastructure and initiatives that enhance environmental performance and social impact, while ensuring transparency and accountability to our stakeholders." The Framework received a Second Party Opinion from ratings agency, Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), affirming its alignment with internationally recognised standards and its significant contribution to sustainable outcomes. Moody's further assessed the Framework as having a significant contribution to sustainability, giving it an overall Sustainability Quality Score of SQS2 – Very Good. SMU also maintains a Aaa rating by Moody's, the highest possible rating in assessing creditworthiness, reflecting the University's robust institutional framework and healthy operating performance. First Sustainability Bond issuance by a Singapore university SMU's Sustainability Bond is the first such bond issued by an AU in Singapore, and is differentiated in the scope of impact. Apart from green initiatives with environmental benefits, SMU is committing a portion of the proceeds raised to fund social programmes that promote inclusive education benefitting its students from low-income families. This differs from Green Bonds (focusing solely on projects with environmental benefits) and Sustainability-Linked Bonds (which are tied to predefined sustainability performance targets only) previously issued by other universities in Singapore. Ms Elaine Lam, Head of Global Corporate Banking, OCBC, said, "With our strong track record in guiding clients through their green transition with strategic advisory and targeted financing solutions, we are excited to strengthen our long-standing partnership with SMU by supporting its first Sustainability Bond issuance covering both environmental projects as well as social programmes that promote inclusive education. A first by an autonomous university in Singapore, this bond issuance speaks to SMU's leadership in integrating sustainability into its core mission, potentially inspiring its students to become future leaders who advocate for both environmental stewardship and social equity." Highlights of SMU's sustainability-related achievements Ranked 18th globally in the Environmental Sustainability lens, Environmental Impact category for the QS World University Rankings: Sustainability 2025 Winner, Sustainability Institution of the Year, 2024 International Green Gown Awards Won the fifth consecutive Silver Ribbon Mental Health Award in as many years since the awards were inaugurated by Silver Ribbon (Singapore) in 2020 Entire campus awarded the Green Mark Platinum certification, with the first Green Mark Platinum Zero Energy building in the city centre First university in Singapore to introduce sustainability literacy and community service as graduation requirements - End - View original content to download multimedia: SOURCE Singapore Management University Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data

Japan Expects Only 1-2% of $550 Billion US Fund to Be Investment
Japan expects only 1-2% of its recently agreed upon $550 billion US fund to be in the form of actual investment, with the bulk of it being loans, according to the nation's top chief negotiator Ryosei Akazawa. At the same time, Tokyo would save roughly ¥10 trillion ($68 billion) through lower tariff rates in its deal with America, he said.
