"The system has become quite unstable, it isn't self-sustainable anymore. I think the clubs should be able to decide their fate, as they also bear all the (financial) risk. Most clubs agree that it can't go on like that."

Global financial centres should facilitate cross-border financing, "rather than become the platforms and tools governments use to sanction other countries", Yi said, without mentioning the United States.

China is studying further measures, including expanding the scope of the stock connect scheme linking China and Hong Kong and improving the Shanghai-London Stock Connect program, Yi said in a speech posted on CSRC's website.

It opted instead to pursue a plan centred around an outright sale of its prized landline assets to state lender CDP, which owns 10% of TIM and controls its smaller rival Open Fiber. TIM this year turned its back on a 0.505 euro non-binding approach by U.S.

But while some traditions will likely be upheld, it's been reported that now Charles is monarch, he may be hosting a more relaxed event than the late Queen, who was believed to have some strict dinner rules in place.

The Princess of Wales - who could be seen holding her daughter's coat as the pair left together - put on an elegant display in a marine blue Catherine Walker coat and matching pill-box hat by Lock & Co.

They were followed by the Duke of York and the Princess Royal. Charles and Camilla arrived wearing matching royal blue outfits, with the King in a suit and the Queen Consort wearing a coat dress by Anna Valentine with a Philip Treacy hat.

It was likely to have been a moving moment for the royal family, with the 15th century chapel being the late Queen's final resting place and the Easter Sunday service the first to take place since her death.
