- Britain's FTSE 100 .FTSE index is seen opening down on Friday, with futures down 0.3%.

* FRASERS GROUP: Frasers Group FRAS.L executive David Epstein will succeed Daniel Grieder as CEO of Hugo Boss BOSSn.DE from January 1, 2027, the German fashion group said on Thursday, cementing the British retailer's influence over the company.

* EUROPEAN UNION: British finance minister John Healey said on Thursday the government would pursue closer cooperation with the European Union at next week's UK-EU summit in areas where the benefits to businesses and consumers outweighed the costs.

* OIL: Oil prices were mixed on Friday, but set for their second weekly decline, as the US plans to continue its Iranian blockade, reducing the chance of renewed large-scale fighting that could disrupt Middle East supplies, though attacks on shipping remain a danger.

* COPPER: Copper prices inched higher on Friday after a sharp selloff in the previous session, but remained on track for a weekly fall as concerns surrounding Nvidia and AI investment outweighed support from tight supplies in top consumer China.
