AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Iceland’s Peace Ranking: Iceland stays the world’s safest country for a 19th straight year in the Global Peace Index 2026, improving by about 2% as violent protests fall, while Greece climbs to 53rd. Crypto Crackdown: Europol and partners dismantle AudiA6, a crypto laundering service tied to ransomware, washing over €336m since 2021; arrests follow in Georgia and major infrastructure is seized. Pension Politics (UK): Lord Walker, Iceland’s supermarket executive chairman, urges Labour to scrap the UK state pension “triple lock” as “mathematically unsustainable” and “profoundly unfair,” adding pressure on Keir Starmer. Trade & Investment (India–Switzerland): India’s Piyush Goyal and Switzerland reaffirm commitment to deepen economic ties under the India-EFTA TEPA, including Swiss pharma and biotech investment discussions. Local Economy (Iceland-related): Grindavík residents plan a peaceful protest outside Alþingi over uncertainty about the town’s future and limits on state-owned Þórkatla home use. Transport Rules (Budapest): Foreign students’ discounted Budapest passes tighten from June 15, requiring a Hungarian residential address. Climate Resilience (EU): A new European Environment Agency report flags uneven progress on climate adaptation across EEA states, with implementation gaps still limiting risk reduction. STEM Talent Warning: A new report warns major economies could lose trillions if STEM graduate pipelines don’t keep up with demand.
