Banks' failures are leaving people vulnerable to huge financial harm
Banks' failures are leaving people vulnerable to huge financial harm. This is according to new research from The Money and Mental Health Policy Institute, which found that over 16 million people know someone else's PIN number. Sharing PINs is even more common for carers and a lack of support by the banks leaves them using risky workarounds to help those for whom they care. To find out more, Olivia Demetriades was joined by Helen Undy of the The Money and Mental Health Policy Institute and Leah Milner, a freelance journalist who lives with bipolar.

Brexit Supreme Court case: a look back at day two of the government’s Brexit appeal case
It’s day three of the politically sensitive appeal that will decide whether the government or parliament has legitimate authority to trigger Brexit. On Tuesday, Lord Pannick QC opened the argument on behalf of the lead claimant, Gina Miller, labelling the government’s assertion that it was entitled to use its prerogative powers to trigger Article 50 as “inherently implausible”. So, what might we expect from day three? David Mundy, Partner and Parliamentary Agent at Westminster based law firm Bircham Dyson Bell, joined Share Radio Breakfast to discuss.

The FCA outlines new proposals to crack down on financial spread betting, has this come as a shock to the industry?
The Financial Conduct Authority has outlined new proposals to crack down on financial spread betting. Financial spread-betting products known as "contracts for difference" are agreements that allow two parties to exchange the difference between the opening price and closing price of a contract. However they are notoriously risky- with an investigation by the FCA finding that 82% of investors lost money on them. Shares in spread betting companies fell dramatically today after the news. To find out more about the measures proposed, Simon was joined by Jake Green Regulation Partner at law firm Ashurst.
