BBC World Service - Business Daily, Italy Votes No

Italians reject constitutional change. Where does that leave its troubled banking sector?

As Italy votes against constitutional change and its prime minister Matteo Renzi says he will resign, what does that mean for reform of the country's troubled banking sector?

We speak to Lorenzo Codogno, a former chief economist of the Italian treasury and now of the London School of Economics and LC Macro Advisors, about what Italy's rejection of constitutional change means for the country's troubled banking sector. Also Dutch engineer Auke Piet of Amazon Resources tells us how he plans to ship millions of litres of water from Suriname to Barbados to relieve the Caribbean island's worst drought in half a century. And our regular commentator Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times tells us why she has no faith in company bosses who say they "love" their employees.
