Here are the top business stories making the headlines in the morning newspapers.
Stoneywood paper mill focus should remain on a sale
Administrators for Stoneywood paper mill should focus on selling the site to a new buyer, says the Scottish Government.
More than 300 workers lost their jobs after the mill was put into administration less than a fortnight ago.
It has prompted calls for the Scottish Government to consider taking the site into public ownership in a bid to save jobs.
Asked if that was a possibility, a government spokesman said the focus should "remain on the administrators conducting a further sales process".
He added that government jobs agency Scottish Enterprise is "working with them to explore all possibilities to rescue the jobs".
The Ferguson Marine shipyard in Port Glasgow was nationalised by the Scottish Government in 2019.
But the Press and Journal says the SNP has faced widespread criticism as a result of the ferries-construction crisis, with the scandal escalating in recent months.
Vestas in offshore wind farm agreement
Inch Cape Offshore has appointed Vestas as the preferred wind-turbine supplier for the Inch Cape offshore wind farm off Angus.
Energy Voice says the agreement also includes a 15-year operations and maintenance (O&M) contract.
Inch Cape recently announced the renewables hub at the Port of Dundee as its intended pre-assembly site and the Port of Montrose as the project's O&M base.
When the wind farm is up and running, it will be Scotland's largest single source of renewable power when built, with the capacity to generate the equivalent annual power needs of more than 1.7million homes.
Trump seeks £420million in damages from CNN
Donald Trump launched a lawsuit against CNN yesterday, seeking £420million in damages over claims the cable TV network defamed him with comparisons to Adolf Hitler and Chairman Mao.
The former US president claims in his lawsuit, filed in US District Court in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, that CNN had used its considerable influence as a leading news organisation to defeat him politically, in a sustained "campaign of libel and slander".
The Telegraph says CNN declined to comment on the case.
Mr Trump, a Republican, claims in the 29-page lawsuit that CNN had a long track record of criticising him but had ramped up its attacks in recent months because the network feared that he would run again for president in 2024.
Ury Estate homes go on sale
The first homes and plots at golf legend Jack Nicklaus' £80million residential golf community near Stonehaven have been made available.
Nicklaus Companies and FM Group will build the luxury homes at Ury Estate, around an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, which is currently under construction.
The first phase of £80million development was launched yesterday.
Fully-serviced self-build plots and five-bedroom homes are now available to purchase in The Village with the promise of a "spectacular view" of the golf course for owners.
The Press and Journal says the construction for the golf course began in 2021 and is scheduled to open in summer 2024.
Credit Suisse shares fall on worries
Shares in Credit Suisse plunged yesterday as fears mount over the financial health of the Swiss bank.
The BBC says shares fell by more than 10%, after the bank's boss failed to reassure investors - but later bounced back.
Last week, chief executive Ulrich Koerner insisted in a memo to staff that Credit Suisse's financial position was solid.
It comes ahead of a restructuring plan due when the bank reports results at the end of October.
Merger talks between Vodafone and Three
Vodafone is in talks with Three about merging their UK businesses.
It would mean the third and fourth largest mobile phone networks respectively combining to create a business with 27million customers.
The companies say it would accelerate the rollout of 5G and rural broadband.
The BBC says any deal would be scrutinised by the Competition and Markets Authority.
Reports suggest the two companies are hopeful of striking a deal by the end of the year.
Vodafone said it would own 51% and Hutchison - which operates Three - 49% under the deal being discussed.
Glendronach work
French group TotalEnergies is ramping up activity at its Glendronach gas discovery West of Shetland.
A contract to secure a semi-submersible drilling rig for the project was put out to tender by the company in August, with two further deals in the pipeline.
Energy Voice says a one-well campaign is expected to last about 90 days and kick off in spring 2024.
A final investment decision on Glendronach, which is located in Block 206/4a of the North Sea, about 20 miles east of the Laggan field, is expected before the end of the year.
Decarbonisation project
Infrastructure developer Carlton Power has secured planning permission for a £300million decarbonisation project.
The Trafford Green Hydrogen development will be Greater Manchester's first low carbon hydrogen fuel hub.
Energy Voice says the project at Carlton Power's Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park, is now the UK's largest consented green hydrogen scheme.
Green light for battery-storage plant
Equinor has approved a final investment decision on the Blandford Road battery-storage project in the UK.
The scheme will be built under a strategic partnership between Equinor and Noriker Power, a flexible power developer in which the company made an equity investment last year.
The battery-storage plant will be built in Dorset. The project will use CATL lithium-ion battery racks and connect to SSE's distribution network, providing capability to manage power intermittency, balance supply and demand and deliver grid services to both SSE and National Grid.
Energy Voice says the project will start construction in January 2023 and is expected to be operational by the third quarter.
