Stuart Gulliver, HSBC's chief executive, has said the bank had decided to drop "indefinitely" plans to look at moving its headquarters from London to Hong Kong. HSBC, which paid 1.5bn dollars (950m pounds) tax in the UK last year, threatened to leave the UK in the face of punitive financial regulation. News that is has squashed the review into changing its domicile will be a major boost to HMRC and the UK, where HSBC employs 50,000 people. "Although we talked at one point about reviewing this, it has been postponed indefinitely," Mr Gulliver, told a group of shareholders in Hong Kong. He added: "There are too many moving parts to make a rational, conscious decision," The Telegraph says.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel suffered an electoral setback yesterday as opposition to European austerity measures spread across the continent. The German chancellor may be tempted to rethink her approach after her allies in the country's largest state, North Rhine-Westphalia, lost 9 per cent of the vote in their worst showing since the Second World War. The result left her in a weaker position for her first meeting tomorrow with François Hollande, the socialist president-elect of France, who has demanded that the EU adopt higher-spending policies to battle the recession, The Telegraph reports.

Debt-laden tour operator Thomas Cook is in advanced talks with its banking group about agreeing a £1.2bn deal to secure the future of the company. The beleaguered company said it was close to striking the agreement with its banking group, just months after the latest refinancing deal which secured an extra £200m. Thomas Cook will give away 5% of the company's shares to the banking consortium and pay a one-off fee in exchange for a two-year extension on its loans to 2015. The group is also exploring a possible sale and leaseback of up to 20% of its aircraft fleet, as part of the deal, which could take place in the next few months and generate about £100m. The group owns 91 planes at present, according to The Telegraph.
