The Economy of Russia

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Business Daily today focuses on Russia. Its economy has fallen further and faster than anyone expected, so we look at the impact that's having on the streets, and ask why would foreign businesses want to move into Russia now? We talk to the head of HSBC in Moscow. And the risks and rewards of delivering food to the workplace, when the workers in question are troops in hostile territory.
