BBC may sell slice of £1bn Worldwide
BBC executives are considering the part- privatisation of the corporation's lucrative commercial arm, BBC Worldwide, as part of a wide-ranging review, the director general, Mark Thompson, has told the Guardian.Among the options under consideration is a stockmarket listing of the business, which had annual revenues of about £1bn last year. BBC Worldwide sells the rights to popular shows such as Strictly Come Dancing to international buyers.'One of the things we should look at over this period is whether 100% ownership of Worldwide is essential going forward,' Thompson said.If the BBC decides to go ahead with a part-privatisation, investors could buy shares while the corporation would keep control of the commercial arm, which also publishes magazines and licenses merchandise from popular programmes such as Top Gear. It would be the first significant privatisation for years and comes amid pressure on the BBC from both sides of parliament to share the benefits of its guaranteed licence fee

Brazil is the first Latin american country to emerge from recession Brazil is the first Latin American country to emerge from recession—and one of the earliest among the G-20 countries to have done so—following a 1.9% quarter-on-quarter expansion in economic activity in the April-to-June period. Whereas the global environment remains difficult and the export sector therefore continues to struggle, the strength of domestic demand has propelled the economy to the start of a recovery. The second-quarter rebound came after two consecutive quarters of shrinkage (1% in the first three months of 2009 and 3.4% in the last three months of 2008), which had put Brazil into a technical recession.
