AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoHormuz diplomacy stalls: Trump says the US-Iran ceasefire is on “life support” after rejecting Tehran’s latest proposal, while he weighs reviving “Project Freedom” escorts—keeping shipping risk elevated and oil prices near $100. US sanctions pressure: The US Treasury tells banks to flag suspected Iranian money-laundering tied to shell firms, crypto flows, and disguised oil shipments (including “Malaysian blend”). Iran doubles down: Iran says ending regional wars remains top priority and insists on its rights around the Strait, as it also launches a new Strait of Hormuz shipping control/toll system requiring detailed vessel declarations. Oman’s local pulse: Oman’s central bank raised OMR23m via treasury bills; ROP foiled a $6.6m cyber-fraud-linked transfer; and Muscat hosted Travel Market 2026 while an Omani Women’s Academy project won a UNESCO-linked sustainable education award. Regional context: GCC non-oil growth led balanced expansion in Q3 2025, even as Hormuz tensions threaten food and fuel supply chains.
