Japan trade negotiator to visit US to press for swift implementation of auto tariff deal
TOKYO, Aug 5 (Reuters) - Japan's top tariff negotiator Ryosei Akazawa said he planned to visit Washington from Tuesday to press the United States to have President Donald Trump sign an executive order to bring an agreed 15% tariff rate on automobiles into effect. The U.S. last month agreed in a trade deal with Japan to lower existing tariffs on Japanese automobile imports to 15% from levies totaling 27.5% previously. Duties that were due to come into effect on other Japanese goods will also be cut to 15% from 25%. "We will push the United States to make sure that an executive order be signed on the agreed tariff on automobiles and automotive components as soon as possible," Akazawa told parliament. Referring to the problem of "stacking" where goods can be affected by multiple tariffs, Akazawa also said Japan wants to make sure that goods that are already levied at more than 15% would be exempt from the additional 15% rate.

Philippine annual inflation at 0.9% in July
MANILA, Aug 5 (Reuters) - Philippine annual inflation moderated to 0.9% in July from the previous month's 1.4% rate, helped by a slower rise in utility costs, the statistics agency said on Tuesday. The headline rate was the lowest reading since October 2019. Economists in a Reuters poll had expected an annual inflation rate of 1.1%, within the central bank's forecast range of 0.5% to 1.3% for the month. The annual core inflation rate, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, was 2.3% in July.

White House readies order to fine banks for dropping customers for political reasons, WSJ reports
Aug 4 (Reuters) - The White House is preparing an executive order that would fine banks for dropping customers for political reasons, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. The order directs bank regulators to investigate whether any financial institutions might have violated the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, antitrust laws or consumer financial protection laws, the Journal reported citing a draft text of the order. The order, which could be signed as early as this week, provides for monetary penalties, consent decrees or other disciplinary measures against violators, the report added. The order also directs regulators to strike policies they have that might have contributed to banks dropping certain customers and requires the Small Business Administration to review the practices of banks that guarantee the agency's loans, the Journal said. Reuters could not immediately verify the report. The White House did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
