Pfizer/ Allergan Merger Called Off

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The biggest drug company merger of all time is off. We hear why the US taxman was unhappy about Pfizer's attempt to cut its tax bill with a transatlantic wedding from Richard Rubin, who covers US tax policy for the Wall Street Journal. Also in the show: how some of China's rich break laws to sneak their money out of the country, in order to invest it overseas. And, as Uber launches in Kenya - what impact is it having on regular taxi drivers. Picture Credit: Simon Dawson/Bloomberg via Getty Images.
