About this episode
Peter Spiegel, Brussels bureau chief, joins the podcast to discuss the potential fallout from the bailout in Cyprus, which sees bank deposits tapped for the first time. Also under discussion are the results of the second leg of US stress tests, as the Fed orders JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs to improve their capital planning, and the latest debate about executive pay at UBS following the revelation that the bank paid nearly $27m to hire Andrea Orcel from Bank of America to head its investment bank and is paying its chief executive more than $9m.
