Key facts: Nestle approved for Perrier wells; court halts Coffee+ brand

A Brazilian court has issued a preliminary injunction against Nestle, ordering it to stop using the Coffee+ brand due to potential consumer confusion with Coffee++. The ruling favors Coffee++, which holds the trademark since 2020. Nestle may face fines if non-compliant. Coffee++ plans international expansion and vows to defend its brand against Nestle's lawsuit seeking to invalidate its trademark in Brazil.

France's Gard department has allowed Nestle to continue using two wells for Perrier production with new conditions. Nestle must submit a study on the filtration method's impact on the water's microbiome within 12 months and conduct enhanced safety checks for two years. Three other wells are no longer permitted for use. This follows scrutiny over illegal water treatments, leading Nestle to adopt microfiltration.

HSBC HOLDINGS proposed to privatize HANG SENG BANK. If successful, HANG SENG will delist on January 27 next year, and the Hang Seng Index will have one less Hong Kong financial stock. STANCHART has been rooted in Hong Kong for many years, with business coverage in the "Belt and Road" market, possessing the potential to fill the gap left by HANG SENG's delisting

- HSBC Holdings has proposed the privatization of Hang Seng Bank, with a vote scheduled for early next month, aiming to delist by January 27.  
- While China's inclusion in the Hang Seng Index has increased, it still mandates retaining at least 20 Hong Kong companies; the impact of Hang Seng's exit raises questions about whether Standard Chartered can fill this gap given its long-standing presence in Hong Kong.  
- Despite recent increases in Standard Chartered's market capitalization and stock activity, factors like dual listings and liquidity concerns complicate its potential inclusion in the index.
