Can the Eurozone Cope Without Greece?

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel reportedly believes the eurozone can manage a Greek exit. Is that really true? What does this mean for the ECB's eurozone stimulus plans? We ask experienced euro-watcher, Lena Komileva, managing director and chief economist at the consultancy, G Plus Economics. Also, we have a report from the Mount Prison in Hertfordshire, where criminals are being employed to make high-end kitchenware. Finally, Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times ponders why so many top business leaders engage in exhaustive fitness-training. Is there really a correlation between a lean body and a lean business?
