Roland Lescure is a member of the French parliament for the ruling La Republique en Marche party, and tells us what the new tax hopes to achieve. Oxfam's tax policy specialist in France, Quentin Parrinello discusses the French government's strategy with tech firms. And Daniel Bunn, director of global projects at Washington think tank the Tax Foundation, explains why the US government is opposed to the move. Also in the programme, our regular economic commentator, New York-based business journalist Diane Brady, considers the implications for US investment banks of Deutsche Bank's decision to turn away from that sector of banking.
