Greek Deadlines

Business Daily

Available for over a year

As deadlines to resolve the Greek debt crisis have come and gone, Business Daily talks to Marc Ostwald a Bond Strategist at Monument Securities and finds out why there really are only days left for a deal to be struck between Greece and its private bondholders. And as austerity measures in debt-ridden European countries hit people hard - Justin Rowlatt discovers that in Portugal they could now threaten democracy itself. The research has been carried out by Professor Antonio Costa Pinto, a Senior Fellow at Lisbon University's Social Science Institute. Plus Simon Atkinson reports from the United Arab Emirates on the surprising development of green energy.
