A mistake too many tourists make in cities around the world costs them more than money

[amsterdam tram public transportation]Flickr / Peng.芃 ¤ 用双脚丈量世界 When I landed at Amsterdam Schiphol to work with Business Insider Netherlands, I wasn't in a rush. Coming off a sleepless red-eye at 6:30 a.m., I wasn't due at the office and couldn't check in to my Airbnb for another eight or so hours. As far as I was concerned, even after an hour spent waiting in the passport line, I had all the time in the world. So I figured I'd sort out the train into the city instead of hopping in a cab. Man, was it easy. Taking the €5.20, 30-ish-minute shuttle from Schiphol to Amsterdam Centraal, the city's main train terminal and transport hub, probably took less time and effort — and certainly less money — than I would have spent waiting in the taxi line at the airport. Later in the week, watching the increasingly familiar stops tick by on Amsterdam's above-ground tram on my way to Dam Square, I had a a thought: ANYONE WHO DOESN'T TAKE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IN A NEW CITY IS MISSING OUT. The more places I'm lucky enough to visit, the more I'm convinced defaulting to a cab, Uber, or car is unnecessary. This doesn't apply, of course, to more rural areas where you need a car to get around, or that dreaded airport-to-hotel slog many people make with suitcases bigger than their children. But in a major city, taking a cab or car isn't as much as a luxury as it is a disservice. I've written before about my deep love for hop-on, hop-off tour buses in a new city, but in many places, public transport takes a close second. In London, the tube is painfully easy (barring weekday rush hour, as with anywhere) and the above-ground bus system is extensive — not to mention fun. I was surprised to see how easy, cheap, and convenient it was to take public buses around the Greek islands of Mykonos and Santorini. On the island of Sardinia, impressively clean coaches will ferry you from town to town, with views over the hills and the sea. The other day, a tram driver in Amsterdam saw me coming just a moment too late and held the tram at the station because I "looked disappointed." I haven't even tried the subway or buses. This perspective could be colored coming from New York City, where sliding into a car guarantees you nothing but privacy. In Manhattan, it's not quicker, it's not cheaper, and it's rarely all that much easier than piling on the subway. If you're trying to get across town, forget it: Most times of day, it would be quicker to walk. So I've become used to public transportation. At home, it's generally a necessary evil required to get to and from work, but elsewhere, it's an opportunity. Especially in the case of above-ground systems, opting in means seeing more of the city. It means getting a better sense of the area's geography, and, although I'll refrain from saying anything trite about immersing yourself in another culture, it's more interesting than sitting in a silent, climate-controlled backseat. New places can be intimidating, cities perhaps more than anywhere else. But making the effort to try the local transport isn't just cheaper than hiding in a cab — it's also more fun. NOW WATCH: Starting an interview with this question will force an interviewer to focus on your strengths

Shares rally and pound jumps after divided Fed leaves US interest rates on hold – as it happened

Global stock markets welcome Federal Reserve’s decision not to hike rates last night * Europe has too many banks - ECB boss Draghi * Bank of England sees ‘challenging period’ after Brexit vote * But factories have a good September * Pound and shares rally * The agenda: Fed calms the markets 6.20pm BST ANY SPEECH BY THE BANK OF ENGLAND GOVERNOR MARK CARNEY WILL BE SCOURED FOR CLUES AS TO HIS LATEST VIEWS ON UK INTEREST RATES. But Carney’s comments in a speech in Berlin offer little enlightenment on that subject, being more concerned with green financing. Katie Allen reports: Bank of England governor Mark Carney has thrown his weight behind taking the fledgling market in green investments mainstream to help cut carbon emissions and boost global economic growth at the same time. Carney used a speech in Berlin on Thursday to highlight green finance as an opportunity to boost financial stability while also tackling climate change. He made no reference to the Bank’s current stance on interest rates in the UK, which were cut to a record low last month to shore up the post-referendum economy. But Carney did discuss the global picture of low interest rates and how more investment in green technologies and and projects to cut emissions could help raise interest rates. 6.01pm BST Over in Greece protests are back on the increase with seamen beginning a two-day strike and anarchists piling the pressure on ticket inspectors by taking over their department and calling for free transport. Helena Smith reports from Athens: The heavy price inflicted on Greece as a result of its rescue by bailout was rammed home again today as seamen – in the first of a series of autumn strikes – walked off the job in protest over pension cuts. Ferries plying routes between islands and the mainland will be stuck in ports until Saturday in a 48-hour strike that will cause havoc at a time when the country continues to enjoy a bumper tourist season. The cuts, part of reforms demanded by international lenders, have been branded “totally illegal” by seamen who are likely to continue the industrial action in the months ahead. The walk-out came as anarchists also turned up the heat on the leftist-led government, rowdily occupying the offices of public transport ticket inspectors at the transport ministry. The protestors, part of a group that calls itself Rouvikonas, distributed leaflets that declared: “workers and passengers together for free transport.” In a statement posted on the anti-establishment Athens IndyMedia site the group’s members said they had carried out the sit in with the express purpose of getting inspectors to not only allow free travel but “allow the poor to get away with it.” “We call on you to reject your role, reject this work, to allow the violators to get away with it. That simple,” it said, insisting that many Greeks could simply not afford the €1.40 cost of a public transport ticket. At least ten were subsequently detained. Continue reading...

EU slammed for not knowing of key official's offshore firm

BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union's executive body was accused Thursday of failing to properly check the business interests of its top officials after leaked documents showed its former competition chief was a director of an offshore company based in the Bahamas. Critics pounced on the revelation that Neelie Kroes, who led the European Commission's powerful anti-trust unit between 2004 and 2010 and is now a paid adviser to Uber and Bank of America, had an undisclosed interest in a company in the Bahamas as further evidence of the EU Commission's lax approach to vetting. Mint Holdings had been allegedly set up from the United Arab Emirates, with the aim of raising money to buy some assets from energy giant Enron, which subsequently collapsed following an accounting scandal. Kroes, who in 2010 moved on to become the Commissioner responsible for digital matters until 2014, said through a lawyer that she did not declare her role because the company never became operational, according to the ICIJ. "Barroso has already undermined the image and the credibility of the Commission by announcing that he will work for Goldman Sachs, the bank which helped Greece to conceal its public accounts," said Gianni Pittella, president of Socialist and Democrats group in the European Parliament. The very same politicians that preach to our people to cut back on wages, pensions and public services join shady criminals in the trillion euro industry of tax dodging, money laundering and corruption, said left-wing German lawmaker, Fabio De Masi.

Fintech could be bigger than ATMs, PayPal, and Bitcoin combined

[A Bitcoin ATM is seen inside a bookstore in Acharnai in northern Athens, Greece June 30, 2015. REUTERS/Dimitris Michalakis ] We’ve entered the most profound era of change for financial services companies since the 1970s brought us index mutual funds, discount brokers and ATMs. No firm is immune from the coming disruption and every company must have a strategy to harness the powerful advantages of the new financial technology (“fintech”) revolution. The battle already underway will create surprising winners and stunned losers among some of the most powerful names in the financial world:  The most contentious conflicts (and partnerships) will be between startups that are completely reengineering decades-old practices, traditional power players who are furiously trying to adapt with their own innovations, and total disruption of established technology & processes: * TRADITIONAL RETAIL BANKS VS. ONLINE-ONLY BANKS: Traditional retail banks provide a valuable service, but online-only banks can offer many of the same services with higher rates and lower fees
 * TRADITIONAL LENDERS VS. PEER-TO-PEER MARKETPLACES: P2P lending marketplaces are growing much faster than traditional lenders—only time will tell if the banks strategy of creating their own small loan networks will be successful
 * TRADITIONAL ASSET MANAGERS VS. ROBO-ADVISORS: Robo-advisors like Betterment offer lower fees, lower minimums and solid returns to investors, but the much larger traditional asset managers are creating their own robo-products while providing the kind of handholding that high net worth clients are willing to pay handsomely for. As you can see, this very fluid environment is creating winners and losers before your eyes…and it’s also creating the potential for new cost savings or growth opportunities for both you and your company. After months of researching and reporting this important trend, Evan Bakker, research analyst for BI Intelligence, Business Insider's premium research service, has put together an essential briefing that explains the new landscape, identifies the ripest areas for disruption, and highlights the some of the most exciting new companies. These new players have the potential to become the next Visa, Paypal or Charles Schwab because they have the potential to transform important areas of the financial services industry like: * Retail banking
 * Lending and Financing
 * Payments and Transfers * 
Wealth and Asset Management
 * Markets and Exchanges
 * Insurance
 * Blockchain Transactions
 If you work in any of these sectors, it’s important for you to understand how the fintech revolution will change your business and possibly even your career. And if you’re employed in any part of the digital economy, you’ll want to know how you can exploit these new technologies to make your employer more efficient, flexible and profitable.        [BII The Fintech Ecosystem]Thomson Reuters Among the big picture insights you’ll get from this new report, titled _THE FINTECH ECOSYSTEM REPORT: MEASURING THE EFFECTS OF TECHNOLOGY ON THE ENTIRE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY_: * Why financial technology is so disruptive to financial services—it will soon change the nature of almost every financial activity, from banking to payments to wealth management. * The basic conflict will be between old firms and new—startups are re-imagining financial services processes from top to bottom, while incumbent financial services firms are trying to keep up with new products of their own. * Both sides face serious obstacles—traditional banks and financial services firms are investing heavily in innovation, but leveraging their investments is difficult with so much invested in legacy systems and profit centers. * Meanwhile, startups are struggling to navigate a rapidly-changing regulatory landscape and must scale up quickly with limited resources. * The blockchain is a wild card that could completely overhaul financial services. Both major banks and startups around the world are exploring the technology behind the blockchain, which stores and records Bitcoin transactions. This technology could lower the cost of many financial activities to near-zero and could wipe away many traditional banking activities completely. This exclusive report also: * Explains the main growth drivers of the exploding fintech ecosystem. * Frames the challenges and opportunities faced by incumbents and startups. * Breaks down global and regional fintech investments, including which regions are the most significant and which are poised for the highest growth. * Reveals which two financial services are garnering the most investment, and are therefore likely to be transformed first and fastest by fintech * Explains why blockchain technology is critically important to banks and startups, and assesses which players stand to gain the most from it. * Explores the financial sectors facing disruption and breaks them down in terms of investments, vulnerabilities and growth opportunities. * And much more. _THE FINTECH ECOSYSTEM REPORT: MEASURING THE EFFECTS OF TECHNOLOGY ON THE ENTIRE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY_ is how you get the full story on the fintech revolution.
