"Business Matters: World Leaders Gather for G20 15 Nov 14

Fri, 14 Nov 14

World leaders gather for the G20 summit in Brisbane - our chief business correspondent Linda Yueh joins us with the latest. Plus as Italy's economic remains¹ in the doldrums, we hear why the government wants to make it easier for companies to hire and fire workers - and what resistance it's meeting. We have a report on the British boy who has become the youngest computer specialist in the world. The six year old is now a Microsoft Certified² Professional after passing the tech giant's exam. And we take a look back over the key business events of the week. All this with our guest Peter Ryan, business editor for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in Sydney. Presented by Jon Bithrey.
