World Business Report

Available for over a year

We explore how Global shipping firms are hoping to return to the Red Sea route after attacks on vessels by Yemen’s Houthis. We look at the fallout from Argentina's new president, Javier Milei, decision to sign a decree cancelling the contracts of seven thousand public sector workers. And we reflect on some of the issues which faced Hollywood in 2023.
