i think what is interesting about the uk economy in the last six months is this quite stronger than expected growth. if you look at the gdp number. but a very worrisome trend. so a liberal market that remains very, very firm with respect to other similar economic weakness. and i think that is what we really have to solve on the uk economy to know if this relativerelativ relatively soft, but also, i mean, rather encouraging if you look at other european countries numbers. i think we will have to wait until well into next year to understand if this is going to have a long-lasting consequences on the uk economy and also on the consumer sector. it's too early to say.

often on the uk economy. the economy next year could do a bit better than this year. it may be the economy that shows the biggest improvement, believe it or not, in its gdp growth rate. that improvement, though, we think is flattering the underlying reality. but stock markets, the uk stock market is a little about the like chelsea, arsenal and man dhefter city. a lot of the glamorous, exciting players are not based in the uk to begin with. it's an international stock market and it's very dominated by the resources sector. we quite like energy, but we're not so keen on the materials. we don't think the uk is going to do as well as the s&p or the euro stocks. we're expecting markets to be more strong because local expectations are going to be overly depressed and they matter. >> kevin, briefly, what about the yen? this seems to be one of the biggest stories for the bank of japan. do you bet on the bank of japan here? >> we expect them to loosen and of coursively push the yen down. the only qualification one has

one is that obr reckoning on the uk economy. thought only back in march it was going to grow -- pain a negative growth for the year. next year they thought it was going to be 2% growth. it's probably only going to be 1%. in terms of those two targets you mentioned, eradicating the structural deficit in a five-year period, that's going to have another couple of years. >> right. now, there we go. you can see jim there in egypt. i wonder whether we should just go as we've decided to cut to him or maybe we can bring steve back. right. we'll try and reestablish steve. we will be going to jim to talk about egypt. we've also got judy standing by. steve, you were brutally cut off in your prime. so let's talk about -- let's get back to the point where you were at, which is talking about the structural deficit. >> yeah, i think that's where you cut me off in my prime. but anyway, the deficit is clearly not going to achieve getting rid of that in a five-year period. many estimates believe that in 2013-2014, the next fiscal year, it's going

international competitors, our economy here in the uk is growing by 0.6%, whereas in germany, we've seen growth of 3.6%. in the u.s., growth of #.1% during the same period. so certainly not a cause for celebration. still a difficult operating environment. under the former chancellor's plan, we would have been borrowing less in the next three years. because the government has failed to get our economy growing and because the policies have pushed us into recent double dip recession, they'll be pr rowing 212 billion pounds more than they planned. put that in context, that is the equivalent of what we in the uk will be spending this financial year on health, transport and defense in aggregate. >> you were talking quite rightly about the low level of

all of us across the uk can expect to see rain coming through today. is moving, as you say, from west to east. things should start to improve in western areas as we go into the afternoon and the evening. and that, then, brings us into a day for tomorrow where we'll see a mixture of sunshine and showers. so the last of the heaviest rain is beginning to move away from the uk just at the moment. >> helen, hi, it's louisa. we're seeing some pictures as you're speaking of how it's affecting transportation surfaces. have you seeing it affect a large portion of real networks across the uk or is it kind of in certain districts? >> the rail networks have clearly been affected. the rain caused some damage to rail tracks last month down in the southwest. and, of course, with the river so high now, any amount of rain is going to add to difficulties with transport disruption. not only on the rails, but on the roads, as well, because the ground is saturated. because there is nowhere for this new rain that falls to grow. we are not out of the woods when it comes to t

tavis: you mentioned the uk. how does this notion of "antifragile" apply in a place like egypt right now? >> the way i was complaining about egypt before the arab spring. when you suppress political life -- political life loves volatility. switzerland is a perfect place where you have volatility at the municipal level, but nothing of talk. the exact perfect on stable system is like saudi arabia or egypt. egypt before the arab spring, we had no information for 40 years. no information. a system artificially stabilized and you have hidden risks under the surface and you do not know what they are. that is what happened with the arab spring and now we are seeing things and it may turn into a total mess. the system is fragile last by depriving it from some rigid depriving it of political ofatility -- depriving it political volatility. tavis: doesn't always lead to greater strength? >> you want to -- does it always lead to greater strength? >> you want to favor the systems. unfortunately, the more the government becomes

so there will be talk of risk of a triple dip in the uk as a result. ro-dollar already weakening substantially after trichet was pretty bearish with their forecasts. they didn't cut rates. let's get a recap then on what's happened with the final trading day of the week. in asia, the final time this week. >> thank you, ross. asian bourses finished the trading week on a mixed thoet. shanghai composite gained a strong 1.6% today and up over 4% on the week. stocks related to infrastructure xwr growth continue to surge after they look to boost inventment demand by over $6.4 trillion over the next decade. agriculture stocks surged on supportive policies. the hang seng was dragged lower by utility stocks, but a strong trading debut of picc. that is hong kong's biggest ipo in two years. and the nikkei edged lower from its seven month high as investors booked profit ahead of the u.s. jobs data, but sharp shares soared over 8% after taiwan said investment talks were still on. south korea losses in automakers were offset by gains in technology shares and ship buil

they don't think they're operating quite the same way here in the uk. for example, local bank managers relationship managers are not given the sap kind of discretion to make lending decisions in respect to businesses in their community that they know that they see every day. so we have to change the culture in our banks. but there is also a market failure in terms of having a financial services sector of small to medium sized businesses and that's why p opposition is arguing strongly for british investment bank. we're alone in not having a state backed investment institution to plug that market failure. and i think the officer of budget responsibility, our independent fiscal council here, has made clear part of what is holding back growth is this credit problem that we have. now, sure of course the eurozone affects the wholesale money markets, but there are things that you can do domestically to address that. and if you look at, say, sorry to use germany constantly, but during the liquidity crunch in 2009, germany investment bank kfw was able to immediat

that is not allowed within the uk bribery and it is a good example of where the legislation has sought cut out a grey area. >> transparency international played a part in developing the bribery act. before it, the uk was lagging behind in the fight against corruption. >> if you go back to 2007, we had zero cases. whereas the us had more than a hundred, germany had more than fifty. we are now catching up. i hope that with the bribery act we will see a further increase in uk law enforcement and see more cases coming through. >> how can companies protect themself against employees being corrupt? that's a particular challenge for large firms. halcrow group employs 4,500 people in britain -- most of them engineers. they work on construction sites around the world. bribery is common practice in the building sector, so halcrow has taken to training its staff at least once a year so everyone knows what's allowed. >> recognizing an approach, it could come in a very innocent way, or innocent looking way. and so its about ensuring that our people dont expose themselves and the company by getting

it sounds like the uk and sweden got their way. how significant is this agreement? >> the early hours of the morning. one may wonder whether that's good news for sweden and the uk that they opted out of the banking supervision or whether that's good news for them in that sense that they opted out and had their way. bottom line is, we have an agreement. that's the most important thing. otherwise, they threaten meetings going between the years leading up to christmas because everybody agrees that we might have a type of agreement before the year is out. the agreement that is on the table, ecb will be the banking supervisor. the straightforward ecb supervisory council will be flanked by two other committees, a mediation committee and a steering committee. the personnel of this and the rotation principal of that yesterday to be decided. there were some sticky points and we'll move that into deep space. it's somewhat of a compromise into what banks are going to be compromised. germany only wanted the minimum, something like 30 banks across the area. the french wanted the

they have not gone down the path of real austerity and the uk has. ople that argue that's a mistake in terms of crushing the economic growth. the one thing fascinates about the u.s. versus the uk today. although the uk has not had growth, it has created jobs. in many ways that's a mirror image of the u.s., which had a reasonable amount of growth and much is jobless growth. do you have any views why the uk has managed to create jobs and america hasn't? >> last week about the uk, we're becoming a more competitive economy. we've aggressively cut the business tax rates and moving up the rank of competitive economies in the world. i think the challenges in britain america are pretty similar. we face the same issues with a competitive ship to economic power to china and the like. we have to educate our children better. we're doing the things. i think the issues we take on entitlement reform and education reform, these are the things that the u.s. congress and administration have to tackle in the next year on or so. >> what about europe? will the euro zone u

i'm pondering is when you look at how much qe has taken place in japan compared to, for example, the uk, it's actually a relatively small amount. if japan tries a much larger qe event, surely we go down the route of the uk which in and of itself does not demonstrate a huge increase in inflation and a huge increase in market growth, either. >> arguably, that is one of the problems with the huge task that the boj has ahead of it. people progress in terms of growth, japan has bigger problems, much bigger problems in terms of the demographic in terms of the structural hold back. so there are a lot of sectors at play now. i think one of the names that the boj has is whether this will work or not. but if were looking at it more from a yen perspective, certainly two things are going to drive the yen are going to be the relative price of the boj balance sheets with respect to, perhaps, the fed and the ecb and the other being the jgb. >> and briefly, in summary, what are your favorite strategic calls? >> the strategic calls for us are going to be buying the rupee against the yen. we are looking
