business round up in venture capital that's just around the corner. a pleasure to have you with us today.
12:30 am
what content you got to watch this week are cool to us drama continue to play out the soap opera let's talk concentrate on all the facts on the show you've been inundated with and maybe perhaps i'll get sick of it all so we're going to get a call so until about the process i'm old and that is a course which looks like it would be to stand in the you. according to you prime minister and they can say i will become the first year as an country to exit an international bailout mr kenney's said that the era of the bailout will be no more all off to announcing plans to withdraw from the i.m.f. e.u. support by the end of this year although mr kerry did warn that the country's financial troubles on. so just turn my view back in twenty ten ireland was forced to take an eighty five billion euro bet out of the country's biggest banks collapse fall stored to twenty that eve and it's not just our men's league that is optimistic but in july ratings agencies down and pools upgraded islands credit
12:31 am
outlook from stable to positive because the country's debts were forming faster than expected so let's get some analysis right now with irish economist david mcwilliams in dublin. so david good news for my bed. well it started too soon arctic the good thing not least because i was sitting in the i.m.f. e.u. troika bailout is regarded by the state or at least under ties and marketed by the states as being the sort of end of the crisis but. we will still be borrowing substantial amounts of money next year the growth rate of the economy hasn't increased in any material way i know typically exiting the bailout is only you only end up paying hedge funds by borrowing from pension funds because of means in proper english and clear english so my my sense is that what we have is a situation whereby in the last three years the irish government how has the
12:32 am
opportunity to change the growth potential of the country to address some internal problems that we have with respect to gives and vested interests and trade union movements but ultimately did nothing so you know good tutor repeat a great expression the irish establishment never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity and here's been one and so what a club we go we go back and issue bonds to. pension foams and to investors in london but it's hardly a sign of success what would you say that about the island on the face of it looks to be in a much better stick to a send than the likes of paul it's a goal cyprus greece would you say say what's island doing i mean it's a very very different economy to portugal or cyprus our greece in the sense that we have some parts of the economy which are probably the most productive in europe if not most of the developed world so i don't think it's fair to compare us to the
12:33 am
others and say we're doing well we might matrix for doing well i don't know what yours is employment is income is immigration is the lives of ordinary people and the lives of ordinary people how to. totally affected negatively by the last couple of years but what we find rather bizarre is that the bond market which is largely dancing to mr derby's tune as long as he promises to do whatever it takes to save the euro bond yields remain low all around the periphery of europe . they are trumpeting their great success we've lived in the country and have children the country of relations in the country work here see a very very different picture one where domestic demand is entirely flush one where people's incomes are falling out attacks are rising and one where all sorts of what we would have regarded as normal normal social services are being cut so again
12:34 am
you know if success is that my job servers teachers who are being forced let's say to work long hours in order to pay somebody in america whose money just speculate in our bond market then yeah but up doesn't seem to me to be success and certainly nothing excited about oh no no i don't think that's. coming out of amongst us and then you'll see what it's what the economy is really doing internally as opposed to reading writing reports from investment banks i thank david met william says speaking to us from dublin now someone that knows all about ireland. is and it's it just costs a highly hey i had to get you a because of a c. i have shown you know what's going on that what is going on so you agree with dave that yes i go i have i do i think david talked about a sense that what you say on their own what you read in the newspapers is not does
12:35 am
not reflect the reality the grad who are living there let's take public transport and i don't for example headlines in the irish times will tell you that fares for dublin commuters are going up ten percent and i think all right well you know that's not terribly bad but what david also said was that there was a huge failure on the. to rein in some of the unions yes so the public infrastructure is affected by strikes on the one hand the what you don't know what you don't see is that the average length of a commuter train is called the darts that brings commuters in and out of them average length has been reduced so commuters being squashed right now into smaller trains right out which they're being asked to pay more yeah so the squeeze is calling for all so yeah this is what you don't see in market reports arise or as i say should because i mean i'm focusing on the data because the data is reasonably optimistic and we like i said about the prime minister's comments this week about coming away from this international bailout package found that to me that seems
12:36 am
positive because they are going to stand around the good to be independent no longer reliant on international help now i read in this one of the i think in the great to use the cliche he would say i wouldn't get into kenny's the prime minister who's on the back foot he's just suffered a humiliating defeat in a referendum where he tried to abolish the upper house of the irish parliament this would reduce the number of checks and balances obviously in the political system i think people have been asked to pick up of a pretty heavy burden ok we'll leave it there i want to chat to you all day about this by car but across it thank you so much that you can insight that a little bit of irish charm here a venture capital today thank you. switzerland is famous for its call she is its banking secrecy and well most importantly in my view it's chock of course the walt largest offshore wealth sent to switzerland it's signed an agreement convention with the organization for economic cooperation and development otherwise known as the o.e.c.d.
12:37 am
the agreement means sharing banking information with dozens of other countries so i'm now joined by hans our kauffman swiss politician and economist for more information on this particular topic do you think that this is a good thing for the global economy do you think that this is more transparent say . less kind of black market. activities going on do you see this as a positive move. you know i'm still ready martin brave little ferry to see. privacy has no necessary to do we start acceleration because of a newly introduced a banking secrecy between good tools both wars. immediately also introduced to growth hairiest at least holding so for thirty five percent so in sweets and. really cheat taxes all income for all involves or shares because
12:38 am
thirty five percent. of all the sort of in use are directly going through to state parks to probably start you are off for instruments from the e.u. from the united states where you do not tire of we told in taxes that step program so one could also have solved the problem by introducing globally substantial beef holding taxes do you think it's far as switzerland's economy is concerned it could be a bad thing and negative impacts come hard for an impact because we are quite unclear on. saying goodbye to another hundred thousand to two arms of thousand foreign customers and especially us customers are an old. and accepted their legal notice it's mostly spanx and i fear to direct we. may be two billion in revenues has called. thank you for your
