The future of the Euro

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Estonia has just joined the Eurozone in the midst of the worst crisis in the history of the European conmmon currency so what's in it for the club's newest member? Business Daily has been out on the streets of Tallinn, the Estonian capital, to find out what Estonians think of the nation's new currency and Justin Rowlatt debates the economic implications of Eurozone memebership with Helen Veiper, who is on the board of the Estonian Trade Council, and Gustav Horn, the Director of German Institute of Macroeconomic Policy. Also, Me, Me, Me Plc. Would You, You, You consider going public - floating yourself on the Stock Exchange? That's what author Cathal Morrow plans to do. We ask him why he wants to go public and how it is likely to affect his private life. And, for many African countries remittances from people working abroad are now a major source of income but there are risks associated with these global connections as Wycliffe Muga explains.
