Share this content:

This article from BBC World Business is a superb overview on some of the key issues facing the European / Global economy during 2014. The interview with Martin Wolf is especially prescient as the structural flaws / problems in the Euro Zone are likely to remain a high profile issue throughout 2015. Please do take a few minutes to read through this piece as enrichment study.
