Business Matters: Brazil in recession 30 Aug 14

Sat, 30 Aug 14

Brazil's economy goes into recession ahead of next month's general election. Output shrank by 0.6% in the three months to June and revised figures for the first quarter of the year also showed a fall of 0.2%. The World Cup, held in June and July, was not regarded as good for business as a whole because employees took more days off and many traditional tourists stayed away. We hear about the country's struggles and attempts to realign itself as an economic power. And, the last dash for powerful vacuum cleaners - Marie Keyworth discovers how new EU rules on the domestic appliance could disrupt the cleaning industry across the continent.
