A senior <keyword id="11892778" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="taliban" source="Orion">Taliban</keyword> official said the death toll of the 5.9-magnitude earthquake — which destroyed at least 1,800 homes — will likely rise as more information comes to light.It's just the latest addition to Afghanistan's already <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/taliban-calls-for-international-aid-after-massive-earthquake-afghanistan-2022-6">widespread humanitarian woes. </a>"The situation in the country is very difficult," Ramiz Alakbarov, the United Nations' humanitarian coordinator for Afghanistan, told reporters from Kabul on Wednesday. "This does add to the burden — this does add a lot to a daily burden of survival."He continued: "Half of Afghanistan's population is already in humanitarian crisis."Afghanistan has dealt with a slew of crises since the <a href="https://www.insider.com/women-are-leading-afghanistans-non-violent-resistance-against-taliban-2022-6">Taliban seized control</a> of the country in August 2021 — the second time the militant group has done so — as the US and NATO forces withdrew.

Nearly half the country's population — 19 million people — face severe hunger, according to the <a href="https://www.wfp.org/news/wfp-rapidly-deploys-food-and-logistics-equipment-earthquake-hit-eastern-afghanistan?&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=organicpost&amp;utm_campaign=newsrelease&amp;utm_content=linkcard">World Food Programme</a>. On top of this, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/isis-challenging-taliban-legitimacy-afghanistan-security-new-bombings-2022-4">sporadic terror attacks</a> from ISIS-K — the Islamic State's local affiliate — have challenged the Taliban's already strained governance and undermined its authority. "The people of Afghanistan have undergone extraordinary hardship, and this natural disaster compounds an already dire humanitarian situation," US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday. US sanctions have prevented the Taliban from <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/afghanistan-frozen-funds-taliban-biden-to-pay-terror-victims-2022-2">accessing billions</a> in funding. Shelley Thakral, a Kabul-based spokesperson for the World Food Programme, told Insider that food insecurity across the country is an issue, as over 90 percent of people do not have enough to eat.Families have resorted to "very desperate coping mechanisms" to feed their families, Thakral said, like selling personal possessions, and in some cases, their children."People have been in debt because after the fall of the country, people lost jobs," Thakral said. "The economic country has really had massive impact on people's livelihoods." Meanwhile, aid groups are turning their attention to the impacted areas from Wednesday's earthquakes — Afghanistan's remote and mountainous Paktika and Khost provinces.But it's not easy to get there. Thakral said a convoy delivering food from Kabul faced a 10-hour drive, including heavy rain and winds. Driving between remote villages can take hours, and the roads are not always paved. "The scale of it — we're still coming to terms with," Thakral said. "We have what we call a humanitarian response team, which is made up of multi-agencies, NGOs that will go down and make a very technical assessment.""It's all hands on deck," she added. UNICEF's Afghanistan representative Mohamed Ayoya said in a statement shared with Insider that "the de facto authorities" have requested the support of UN agencies teams to respond to the disaster. Ayoya said the agency is distributing aid like kitchen equipment, hygiene supplies, and warm clothes. The UN's humanitarian affairs office said in a <a href="https://reliefweb.int/report/afghanistan/afghanistan-flash-update-1-earthquake-paktika-and-khost-provinces-afghanistan-22-june-2022-1445" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> that the Taliban's defense ministry has sent dozens of ambulances and multiple helicopters to the region, where it is conducting search and rescue missions. A spokesperson for the <keyword id="6356001" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="international" source="Orion">International</keyword> Committee of the Red Cross told Insider that the organization is also sending medical supplies to hospitals in the region."Beyond the urgency to respond to the humanitarian needs triggered by today's catastrophe, States and development agencies are also encouraged to return to Afghanistan and continue their support for projects that are on hold," the spokesperson said.

Global crypto market crosses $2 trillion, bitcoin accounts for over 50% of the market cap

New Delhi, As the surging <keyword id="6354947" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="bitcoin">Bitcoin</keyword> grabs most of the headlines, Ether or Ethereum, the second biggest cryptocurrency, is touching <keyword id="10720211" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="record-valuation">record valuation</keyword> and could still be bought cheaper -- for nearly ₹1.16 lakh or $1,600 for one Ether. According to industry players, Bitcoin which is hovering around $40,000 is beyond the reach for <keyword id="10720212" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="most-investors">most investors</keyword> while Ether that has touched an all-time high is still within reach. According to Rahul Pagidipati, CEO, ZebPay, Ether tends to follow Bitcoin. "Now that Bitcoin has hit record high and is consolidating, investors are adding Ether. Together the two <keyword id="2721952" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="crypto">crypto</keyword>currencies constitute nearly 80 per cent of the total crypto market cap," Pagidipati said. "Nearly 3 million ETH ($3.8 billion) have been locked up for long-term staking, removing them from the buyable supply. With lower supply comes higher prices," Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin said that Ether is touching record valuation because Bitcoin is consolidating and investors are looking at Ether to reap greater economic benefits in the long term. "Ethereum is up about 135 per cent since the start of the year and is expected to become as valuable as Bitcoin in the years to come," Thakral added. "We hope Indian counterparts will take note of this and enable the growth of the digital asset industry in India by providing a positive regulatory environment. Ethereum <keyword id="6355684" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Blockchain">Blockchain</keyword> has very strong fundamentals and a lot of projects are using it to power their infrastructure." As India plans to introduce the 'Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2021', to prohibit all "private cryptocurrencies" in the country, the industry stakeholders have come out in unison hoping that the Indian government would listen to all stakeholders before taking any decision. "As more people see new applications for the Ethereum protocol, like staking, they're realising that Either is real and has lasting value, just as they are realising the truth about Bitcoin," said Pagidipati. Owning one full bitcoin is probably a dream now for most people. "But you can still buy a full Ether for ₹1.6 lakh, still in reach for many. Those who remember Bitcoin at that price may be thinking that this opportunity won't last for much longer," the ZebPay CEO noted. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is already exploring the possibility as to whether there is a need for a digital version of fiat currency and in case there is, then how to operationalise it. The apparent softening in RBI's stand on cryptocurrency came after the Supreme Court last year set aside a circular issued by the RBI that barred any entity from providing banking services to anyone dealing with virtual or cryptocurrencies. The RBI, in its booklet on payment systems, noted that central banks around the world are examining whether they could leverage on technology and issue fiat money in digital form. With the overall value of all cryptocurrencies surpassing the $1 trillion mark, industry experts have said that crypto may become the most important asset class of the 21st century and India needs to catch up fast with the global trend.

Slowing economic growth across the globe and trade tensions also contributed to the wealth drop, according to <a href="https://www.wealthx.com/report/the-wealth-x-billionaire-census-2019/">Wealth-X</a>.In fact, this was the first time in three years that high net worth individuals saw their fortunes shrink, according to French technology consulting firm <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>.In the ninth edition of its annual World Wealth Report, Capgemini examines how high net worth individuals manage their wealth. The report examines these individuals in three groups: "millionaires next door," with net worths between $1 million and $5 million; mid-tier millionaires, with net worths between $5 million and $30 million; and ultra-high net worth individuals, with net worths above $30 million. About 90% of the world's high net worth individuals fall into the "millionaires next door" group, according to <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>. The report found that, at the end of the year, "millionaires next door" outperformed billionaires: The collective wealth of "millionaires next door" dropped less than half of 1% in 2018, according to <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>.Billionaires, on the other hand, fared the worst."[Billionaires] account for around 1% of the population of high-net-worth individuals, but they accounted for 75% of the overall wealth decline in the high-net-worth individuals space," Capgemini's Deputy Head of the Global Financial Services Market Intelligence Strategic Analysis Group Chirag Thakral told Business Insider.Billionaires' investment choices may be to blame, Thakral said. "Millionaires next door" tend to choose less risky investments that perform better in volatile markets, Thakral said, while billionaires often include riskier investments like commercial real estate, hedge funds, and private equities in their portfolios.Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-3-new-billionaires-one-day-new-tech-market-2019-7">China's new tech market just minted 3 billionaires in a single day, and it might be a turning point after a rocky year for the country's wealthiest people</a>As <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/stock-market-investing-strategies-for-rising-volatility-vix-baml-2018-11">Business Insider</a> previously reported, buying and holding stocks from companies with long histories of growth is the best investment strategy in a volatile market, according to Bank of America strategists. Large-cap consumer staples, industrials, and technology stocks also tend to perform well in a turbulent market, Bank of America said."It's the risk versus reward scenario, where in a good market [billionaires] are the ones leading the growth, in a bad market, they're the ones who are affected the most," Thakral said. <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/oil-paint-mixture-pigment-expensive-art-painting-2019-7">A liter of oil paint can cost $1,100.

The net worths of Hong Kong's wealthiest residents fell 13% in 2018, compared to the global average of 3%, according to <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>. In the twenty-third edition of its annual World Wealth Report, <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a> examines how high net worth individuals manage their wealth. Defined as those with more than $1 million, <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a> found that 2018 was the first time high net worth individuals (HNWIs) around the world experienced the first overall decline in their wealth in seven years.In Hong Kong, one in 10 residents who began 2018 as HNWIs could no longer be considered as such by the year's end. Such losses are not atypical for Hong Kong's wealthy residents, who <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a> describes as "consistently sensitive to equity market movements." Hong Kong's wealthiest often enjoy the greatest profits when the markets are bullish, but experience the steepest losses during market routs, Capgemini's Deputy Head of the Global Financial Services Market Intelligence Strategic Analysis Group Chirag Thakral told Business Insider.Thakral chalks the decline in Hong Kong's wealth up to two main factors."The key reason for this time I would say obviously, the market capitalization was down around 12% and then the GDP growth was a decline rather than a growth, and then the real estate market is also cooling off in Hong Kong," Thakral said. "Those factors put together were the reasons which led to the overall Hong Kong equity market going down, which affected the Hong Kong billionaires - or the millionaires - this year."Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/billionaires-middle-east-fortunes-increased-wealth-money-reasons-2019-7">There's only one part of the world where millionaires did not see their collective fortunes shrink in 2018: the Middle East</a>The losses weren't limited to Hong Kong, however.

Choosing the right wealth manager can be a highly personal decision, but there is one factor that billionaires value in wealth managers over any other, French technology consulting firm <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a> found in its 2019 World Wealth report: good customer service. In the ninth edition of its annual World Wealth Report, <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a> examines how high net worth individuals manage their wealth. The researchers surveyed 2,500 high net worth individuals worth over $1 million across the globe.Customer service has only been a primary focus of the ultra-wealthy for about three years, the Deputy Head of <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>'s Global Financial Services Market Intelligence Strategic Analysis Group Chirag Thakral told Business Insider. Over 90% of the ultra-wealthy people surveyed reported that they considered how they were treated by potential wealth managers and management firms when making a decision, according to <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>. Customer service ranked above all of the other factors studied, which included fees, referrals from peers, the firm's past performance and geographical location."Wealth management is a personal touch business," Thakral said. "End of the day, [your] value proposition is the way that you maintain personal connections with the client."As a result, more wealth management firms are giving their managers technological tools to minimize their administrative work and maximize the time they can spend with customers, Thakral said.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image">Shayanne Gal/Business InsiderWhen looking for a wealth manager, billionaires value customer service over the firm's past performance, according to Capgemini's 2019 World Wealth Report.</div></div></div>The ultra-wealthy are good at picking wealth managers that fit their needs, Thakral said, as 79% reported being satisfied with their wealth managers and 82% reported being satisfied with their management firms.

The report found that 2018 was the first time in seven years that HNW individuals - defined as those with net worths over $1 million - across the globe saw their fortunes shrink.The report, currently in its 23rd edition, found that rising oil prices and economic reforms helped the collective wealth of HNW individuals in the Middle East rise 4% in 2018. And their wealth isn't the only thing on an upward trajectory: The population of HNW individuals also grew 6% in 2018.The net worths of HNW individuals in the Middle East have had a "mixed performance" over the past several years as fiscal reforms have reduced the region's dependence on oil, <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>'s Deputy Head of the Global Financial Services Market Intelligence Strategic Analysis Group Chirag Thakral told Business Insider.For the past three years, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman has worked toward what he calls <a href="https://vision2030.gov.sa/en">"Vision 2030,"</a> a plan to diversify the Kingdom's economy. The plan includes measures to increase employment, social responsibility and construct a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/saudi-arabia-500-billion-city-desert-mega-city-fake-rain-2019-7">futuristic</a> $500 billion city, according to its <a href="https://vision2030.gov.sa/en">website</a>.Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/saudi-arabia-500-billion-city-desert-mega-city-fake-rain-2019-7">Saudi Arabia's crown prince reportedly wants to build a $500 billion desert city with artificial rain, a glow-in-the-dark beach, and robot dinosaurs</a>"All those policies have started helping the overall economy, which has helped the high-net-worth individual growth," Thakral said. "There's a dynamic business culture."<h2>How HNW individuals fared in 2018, by region</h2>The growth in the region's HNW population was particularly prominent in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, where HNW individuals' wealth rose 4% and 6% respectively, according to the <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini's</a> report.On the flip side, HNW individuals in the United Arab Emirates were not able to escape global <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-volatility-how-retail-investors-fared-this-year-2018-12-1027829466">market volatility</a> because of the UAE's deep economic ties to the West, Thakral said.

The net worth of Qin Yinglin, the chairman of Chinese pig breeder Muyuan Foodstuff Co., has skyrocketed over $6.6 billion in 2019 so far to a total of $8.56 billion, Qin's profile on the <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/yinglin-qin/">Bloomberg Billionaires Index</a> shows. That is an increase of over 341%, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-13/pork-crisis-makes-pig-farmer-world-s-fastest-rising-billionaire">Bloomberg's Blake Schmidt and Emma Vickers</a> reported Friday.A global shortage of pork allowed <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-13/pork-crisis-makes-pig-farmer-world-s-fastest-rising-billionaire">Muyuan</a> to raise both its prices and its profits in the second half of 2019. Muyuan made 260% more in the third quarter of 2019 than during the same timeframe last year, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-13/pork-crisis-makes-pig-farmer-world-s-fastest-rising-billionaire">Bloomberg</a> reported. The company's success directly benefits the 54-year-old billionaire, who derives most of his net worth from the 60% stake in Muyuan he owns with his wife, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-13/pork-crisis-makes-pig-farmer-world-s-fastest-rising-billionaire">Bloomberg</a>. Qin founded Henan province-based pork producer with 22 pigs in 1992, according to the <a href="http://www.muyuanfoods.com/index.php/52f4a5390a">Muyuan's website</a>. An outbreak of African swine flu on Chinese pig farms cut the country's pork production by nearly a third and sent prices up approximately 50% above what they were this time last year, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-pig-facial-recognition-african-swine-fever-still-hits-2019-5">Business Insider's Alexandra Ma</a> previously reported. China is both the world's largest producer and consumer of pork, and the shortage forced the Chinese government to pull meat out of its stockpiles to meet the demand, the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-releases-stockpiled-pork-to-cool-price-surge-2019-9">Associated Press</a> reported in September. The government even resorted to implementing artificial intelligence, facial recognition, and blockchain technologies on some farms to monitor the pig's health to no avail, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-pig-facial-recognition-african-swine-fever-still-hits-2019-5">Ma</a> reported.A representative of Qin at Muyuan Foodstuff did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment on its chairman's net worth or the company's stock price.<h2>Pork billionaires are outliers among the Chinese ultra-wealthy</h2>Qin isn't the only pork billionaire to see his net worth skyrocket in 2019. The net worth of the world's largest pork producer, New HopeGroup chairman Liu Yonghao, has nearly doubled to $11 billion in the past 12 months, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-13/pork-crisis-makes-pig-farmer-world-s-fastest-rising-billionaire">Bloomberg</a>.Few other billionaires in China have shared Qin and Liu's success. The American and French fortunes on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index outpaced Chinese ones in the first half of 2019, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/french-billionaires-money-luxury-goods-demand-china-arnault-pinault-2019-7">Business Insider</a> previously reported, growing at rates of 35% and 17% respectively. The collective net worths of Chinese billionaires, meanwhile, grew 15%.Perhaps no one's fortunes have suffered more than Hong Kong's billionaires', however. Hong Kong's wealthiest residents often enjoy the greatest profits when the markets are bullish, but experience the steepest losses during market routs, <a href="https://www.capgemini.com/news/world-wealth-report-2019/">Capgemini</a>'s Deputy Head of the Global Financial Services Market Intelligence Strategic Analysis Group Chirag Thakral told <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hong-kong-billionaire-net-worths-most-volatile-2019-8">Business Insider</a>.Months of mass protests and civil unrest <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hong-kong-protests-billionaires-peter-woo-one-billion-loss-2019-8">wiped $15 billion</a> off the net worths of Hong Kong's 10 richest people between July and August. The two members of the Kwok family, Hong Kong's richest family and the owners of the city's largest real-estate developer, saw their net worths <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hong-kong-protests-richest-family-kwoks-losing-most-money-billionaires-2019-8">drop over a billion dollars each</a>. Meanwhile, "Superman" Li Ka-shing's fortune <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hong-kong-protests-billionaires-peter-woo-one-billion-loss-2019-8">fell $3 billion</a>.
