using the topic of income inequality waste the forms that was the biggest threat to the global economy right now but you know when you got eight c. billionaires in attendance it's quite difficult to take that one seriously as assassin element of irony to that and according to the latest reports half of the world's poorest population that is three and a half billion people now have the same amount of wealth as the eighty five richest people added to that the one percent richest now have an accumulated wealth of one hundred ten trillion dollars that sixty five percent small in the world were stabbed from up here it is difficult to imagine how those people will become a priority for the people of babel well we are all equal in the eyes of god no matter how many millions or billions that we might have to weigh in the bank at this time of year the whole of devils gets involved in the financial for even the
11:31 am
church itself year after year a con of mis some politicians would come pay a price for a solution to the financial crisis. no i caught up with the nobel prize winning economist robert shiller on the problem here's what he had to say there should be a recognition that we need some inequality because people won't work if they think their income doesn't depend on it and i think it's ok to have billionaires actually for people who invent a new computer system people who are really begrudge them. but there has to be some limit and we don't there is a problem that some of the most wealthy people don't look like the most deserving people the issue that's really driving a lot of concern now is rising inequality at the top especially in the united states where the top one percent or the top one tenth of one percent and they tend to be in fry an egg. and so they are making
11:32 am
a huge amount of profits now and. one thing that's pointed to is. that their being the government and. making it easier for them to continue doing the economy has to go on to the people and. we have to work on preventing excesses like that now one way to solve the problem could be to tax the rich so i bumped into the c.e.o. of here on the streets of davos and i proposed this option day and there is a general acceptance that the rich need to play more and income inequality is is an issue and that's something that we all need to contribute to having said that if we push it too far and remove the incentive to work remove the incentive for entrepreneurship been going to hit in the you know in the opposite direction so like everything in life there's a balance lost you quite a bit about tax evasion he said that the bulls want
11:33 am
a fit for purpose at the has been some progress in the last year they still are not quite out to scratch but the difference between progress and i think many countries are focused on this and the important thing is countries are working together which i think is very very healthy but what we do continue to see is that countries compete to around tax. is something i've heard many times over the last few days here at davos is come to our country interest in our country because the tax rates are lower and as long as that continues we will see companies organizing their affairs in a way that allows them to pay less in terms of where they set up their operations so suppose it any else it is that every single country in the whole world to grade what she is probably said you know in my lifetime you know as well as income inequality gender inequality was one of the themes a shia was just sixteen percent of the patisserie buttons being women and so i caught up with the vice president of manpower mara swan and i asked why. so few
11:34 am
women part of it's the structure because what you the level the people the need to ten so intense until businesses improve the number of people in the c. suite it's very difficult for davos so they're actually just representing what's happening in the c. suite today so that's part of the problem and you know you know we can we can change that so we see business changes now one woman that helped make up this sixteen percent was the finance minister of nigeria and one thing that comes up year after year is the breaks and the question of whether or not they still have the dynamism that they want happen they were put together so i questioned whether the mint countries which is mexico nigeria and turkey all of those countries are ready to take over from the brakes absolutely i hate to describe it as the new bric but it's its own thing you know but i think it has an equally valid you know state of being if you look at the countries these are countries that you cannot afford to
11:35 am
ignore in the future you can't ignore indonesia or turkey which is correct or is all mexico on nigeria because these countries nigeria will be the fourth largest country in the world by twenty fifty it's going to have a huge market. has vast resources you look at indonesia the same thing a large population big market in the future it's going to be powerful. you know has its characteristics of the in both the europe and asia you know it's very strategically important and mexico of course is not as a middle income country at the cutting edge of several of the brics a mint need to do well in terms of social protection and so on so yes i think this group it has its own dynamic and we're excited to be in it. now russia is of course one of the bric nations and dabbles is a great opportunity for russia to come here and warm up the internet. no image of
11:36 am
course you've got an audience influence and power wallets now one of the themes this year was a loss of trust in the banking system so with russia having revoking thirty two licenses from its banks in just six months i caught up with the head of the t.v. the second largest lender in russia and i asked him about the clamp down if you take even the government for me poor before prepared before this meeting one of the weak point of for a russian unless the player meant was mentioned the relative weakness of the russian banking sector and this is because we do we still have quite a number all very weak financial institutions and banks so we are very much the porting the polish so the central bank i mean the those banks of the it was a i think thirty licenses with the ruble drawn these here it's only represent one percent of the banking of the people to all the retail deposits and their asses so he doesn't very much effect the. the banking sector today but it's clear up and
11:37 am
it's it's it's it's making us less dangerous or less risky for both corporates and the people who work with such bank so i think it's it's a very healthy process it's cleaning up the russian banking sector now seeing as we are in a skier is a lot here in davos and we get the sochi winter olympic games just days away which russia has high people give a boost to the economy i caught up with the biggest investor into the gaves the russian billionaire that sell bag i asked him why he invested so much money shorty is very but you go to a show. of very critical should pay should be for russia because this is. absolutely unique opportunity to go to risk government to be part of the development you need clusters to reach to sports because i'm closer and believe this one was a beautiful. we should. close your nukes acquirements simone to
