World Business Report

Available for over a year

Eurozone growth remains weak as its biggest economy, Germany, only just avoids going into recession. Plus, as economic output in Italy shrinks again, we hear why the government there wants to make it easier for companies to hire and fire workers. We have a report on the British boy who has become the youngest computer specialist in the world. The five year old is now a Microsoft Certified Professional after passing the tech giant's exam. We will take a look back over the key business events of the week and get the latest from the financial markets.
