Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

(4) Money manager Danny Moses, immortalized in The Big Short, said private credit and private equity firms’ push into retail products reminds him of the years preceding the subprime mortgage crisis.

(5) European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the bloc will deliver on its €90 billion ($106 billion) loan package to Ukraine “one way or another” as the war-battered nation is set to run out of funds in a matter of weeks.
