Business Matters: Millions "displaced" by World Bank 17 April 15

Fri, 17 Apr 15

The World Bank faces fresh allegations that it has failed to properly police the consequences of its development policies, displacing millions of people from their homes without giving them proper compensation. We hear from the man who developed the Bank's resettlement procedures in the 1970s and 80s and current President Jim Yong Kim. There are fresh concerns about whether Greece and its international lenders will find a way to break the impasse1 over its huge debt burden. The UK Independence Party wants a referendum on whether the British should stay in the European Union. Ahead of the UK's general election Roger Helmer, the leader of UKIP in the European Parliament, outlines its economic strategy. And the online marketplace for arts and crafts, Etsy, makes its stock market debut2 in New York, but with a greater responsibility to shareholders3 can the firm stay true to its idealistic roots?
