AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Crypto Regulation Shift: MiCA’s July 1 deadline is pushing unauthorised EU crypto firms to migrate to the UAE, where licensing is faster and less strict; experts say up to 80% of firms may struggle to survive the new rules. Iceland Whaling Under Scrutiny: Iceland’s fin whale hunt has restarted, with renewed claims of animal welfare violations and anti-whaling activists targeting Hvalur hf.’s fuel supplier while the Coast Guard shadows a protest vessel. EU Steel Protectionism: From July 1, the EU cuts duty-free steel quotas and raises tariffs for over-quota imports, aiming to shield the sector from global overcapacity and Chinese pressure. Reykjavík Tourism & Travel Demand: A “coolcation” trend highlights Reykjavik as a summer escape from heat, with airlines promoting Northern Europe routes. Reykjavík Arts Festival Angle: The Reykjavík Arts Festival is framed as a business-relevant cultural engine, employing thousands in creative industries and balancing local politics with international programming. Local Infrastructure Watch: A water leak closure in Broadstairs shows how long repair timelines can disrupt daily life and commerce.
