Business Matters: Crisis In Crimea - What's At Stake?

Sat, 15 Mar1 14

The US Secretary of State, John Kerry, has been meeting with his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, to discuss the crisis in Crimea. The talks come ahead of a referendum in the region, which could see Crimeans voting to secede2 from Ukraine and develop closer links with Russia instead. We look at the economic forces at play, both in Crimea itself and in Ukraine as a whole. Plus, US regulators sue sixteen of the world's biggest banks for alleged3 interest rate fixing. And China's answer to Twitter, Weibo, announces its intention to float on the New York stock market. We experience a day in the life of a Californian paparazzo, and hear how Serbian voters will also be heading to the polls at the weekend - for the country's second general election in less than two years. Plus, we take a leisurely4 look back at the stories which have been making the biggest business headlines over the past week. All the while joined by our guest Peter Ryan from ABC in Australia
