Mobility at the Munich motor show

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Mobility, not just motoring, is the theme of this year's Munich motor show, the IAA. The BBC's Theo Leggett is there and talks to us about the challenges facing the auto industry as it moves away from petrol and diesel. We hear from the EU Tax Observatory as they calculate European banks log $24billion a year in tax havens around the world. China's biggest property company Evergrande's creditors have called for immediate repayment of debts, could this be China's Lehman moment? Vivienne Nunis reports on the impact of Covid 19 on Kenya's economy, and the latest Marvel offering Shang Chi breaks records at the box office. All through the show we're joined by Peter Morici, economist at the University of Maryland and Rachel Cartland, writer and author who is based in Hong Kong.
