WBR: Ukraine Ceasefire Announced 5 Sept 14

Fri, 5 Sep 14

A ceasefire has been agreed in Ukraine, as the EU weighs more sanctions against Russia. We analyse the impact of further economic sanctions on the Russian economy. A new secure system to protect people doing online banking1 will use a scan of the veins2 in their finger to authenticate3 their identity. Barclays Bank tells World Business Report about its new technology and Robert Schifreen, a former hacker4 who is now a computer security consultant5, gives us his opinion of the device. And if you have ever wondered where many used cars get a second life, you will probably find the answer in Benin. The small west African country has become one of the main destinations for second-hand6 cars and trucks, from Europe and North America. Every month, about 25,000 vehicles arrive in Benin, but their ultimate destination is usually Nigeria. You can hear the BBC's Sophie Ribstein report from Benin's commercial capital Cotonou.
