Wake Up to Money

Will Bain with the details of a 'framework' for a likely compromise on trade talks between the US and China this week. Proposals include a deferral of China's strict export controls of rare earths, minerals critical to US tech and industrial production. In return, the US proposes an end to promised retaliatory tariffs. We hear from an international trade expert on the robustness of the framework. And, a consultation has ended on Government plans to fine firms that repeatedly pay their suppliers late. Big companies have warned of investment risks if the plans go ahead. We speak to a small business leader involved in the discussions. And in football, embattled Sheffield Wednesday have finally entered administration. With a 12-point deduction from the EFL to contend with, what chances are there a likely buyer can be found?.
