Behind the Money: KKR, Bain and private equity’s push into Japan

When international private equity groups first entered Japan at the turn of the 21st century, newspapers criticised them as vulture funds and politicians steered clear of public contact. Today, it’s a different story. Dozens of buyout groups have set up in the country and the establishment is courting them. The FT’s Tokyo correspondent David Keohane and Tokyo bureau chief Leo Lewis explain why there’s been a shift, and how private equity’s presence may rejuvenate Japanese corporates.

Political Fix: Labour's year in review

This is an episode of Political Fix, the FT weekly podcast that takes you into the corridors of Westminster to unwrap, analyse and debate British politics with a regular panel of FT correspondents. It’s been another turbulent year in UK politics. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced down rebellions from within his own party, overseen scandals and sackings, and delivered a constant barrage of bad news from health and housing to small boats and the Budget. He’s fared a little better on the world stage – with successful state visits, securing a comparatively competitive trade deal with Trump, as well as a tentative rapprochement with Europe. But with every international success, Starmer’s standing domestically seems to diminish: he ends the year, on some measures, as the most unpopular PM ever. In this special live episode of Political Fix, host George Parker is joined by Anna Gross, Stephen Bush and Chris Giles to analyse how the Labour party got here – and where it goes next.

Tech Tonic: Defying death

How much do we really know about ageing? For decades, scientists have been trying to understand the biology of the ageing process - what happens to our bodies as we get older? And is it possible to slow that process down or even stop it all together? In this series of Tech Tonic, the FT’s Hannah Kuchler and Michael Peel look into the past, present and future of longevity - the wellness movement focused on extending and bettering your quality of life. Episode 1 follows Hannah as she speaks with UCL professor David Gems about the history of ageing research, and then with longevity researcher Matt Kaeberlein to discuss how the industry has developed - including current drugs that could have anti-ageing effects. Plus, Michael visits the Reviv clinic in London where he experiences, first hand, the growing consumer interest in the longevity craze.

Bring back Mark!

Candid Comments

The show gives a useful overview of developments in business, tech, politics, and how it all impacts the economy. I listen daily, but I much prefer the days when the regular host delivers the news. With all due respect to her intellect and intent, Sonja’s voice is not made for podcasts. Especially when nestled in the ear, it comes across as grating and scolding. Please give us Mark’s dulcet voice daily, and find another substitute host!

It’s difficult to start a day with news in these times. However, this FT news briefing gives me a look most often from a financial perspective. I find that informative, engaging and usually easy to understand. Thank you.
Horrible inaccurate coverage of DOGE

Completely unworthy of you. Spouting the lies & completely inaccurate descriptions of the situation. Better no coverage than this. You are usually good.
Not worth it

I’m an FT subscriber and decided to part ways with this podcast. I’ve listened to this podcast since its start back in 2018. I used to enjoy it. However, over the years, I found it to be increasingly disappointing. I think the story choices are poor – there is too much slanted American political coverage. I want news about markets, industries, and the macroeconomy. Also, I’ve never really liked the various hosts for the podcast. They come across as inexperienced and unserious. Their scripting is bad, which is only compounded by the hosts’ childish deliveries.
