Morning Money: Will the new transatlantic "Privacy Shield" be effective at defending your data?
Discussions surrounding 'Privacy Shield' are ongoing - it's a new transatlantic agreement that will allow data to flow freely between the EU and US, whilst also ensuring that data is properly protected. Companies have waited months for the deal, after its predecessor, the US Safe Harbor Agreement, was struck down by European courts in October 2015. But so far only Microsoft, CA Technologies and Workday have signed up. Joe Aldridge looks into the new agreement by speaking with Peter Church, a Counsel and data privacy expert at law firm Linklaters.

Morning Money: “The UK will start to annoy people if they don’t pull that trigger”- Ryan Heath on Article 50
Ryan Heath, Senior EU Correspondent and Associate Editor at Politico Europe, joined Share Radio Morning Money to bring us the sharpest political analysis in the business. Why is it a bad idea to wait too long before ‘pulling the trigger on Article 50?’ Because EU leaders will lose patience and ‘push us out the door’. And why is a General Election later this year dangerous? Because it will be seen as a rerun of the referendum vote.
