AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Youth Jobs Watch: The ILO says global youth unemployment rose to 12.4% in 2025, with 67 million young people out of work and 257 million not in employment, education or training (NEET), warning AI could shrink entry-level roles further. Hormuz & Hiring Risk: Iran rejects claims of “total control” over the Strait of Hormuz and says the waterway stays closed unless the US accepts its conditions; the standoff is disrupting shipping and keeping oil volatile. Energy Pressure: The IEA warns oil stockpiles are “rapidly depleting,” lowering supply forecasts and raising urgency to reopen Hormuz—an indirect hit to regional business confidence and jobs. Turkey Peace Framework: Turkey’s parliament passed a PKK peace law framework enabling disarmament steps and reintegration, but debate continues over Abdullah Ocalan’s role. Labour Mobility Deal: Kenya and Qatar agreed annual political consultations and will push to review their 2012 bilateral labour agreement to expand jobs for Kenyans in Qatar. Fintech Expansion: Bahrain’s Skyro appoints a former Mastercard executive to lead Middle East expansion, signaling more hiring in the region’s payments space. AI Startup Funding: Israel’s Wonderful is reportedly seeking a $500m raise at a $5b valuation, as it expands AI agents into banks, hospitals and international markets.
