:00:23. > :00:25.Minister flies to the US for Brexit talks Live from London,

:00:34. > :00:42.George Osborne heads to New York to tell American investors that

:00:43. > :00:44.Britain leaving the European Union is an opportunity and not a worry.

:00:45. > :00:51.Also in the programme, Aaron's in Farnborough.

:00:52. > :00:59.It is the Farnborough International airshow, one of the most important

:01:00. > :01:05.aviation events. Despite the care of optimism among big industry chiefs

:01:06. > :01:11.gathering, there are some headwinds facing the passenger jet business. I

:01:12. > :01:14.have the boss of bowling joining us live very shortly.

:01:15. > :01:23.We are 30 minutes in in London and there are more

:01:24. > :01:29.And we'll also be hearing from the head of Boeing,

:01:30. > :01:37.one of the world's largest global aircraft manufacturers on everything

:01:38. > :01:41.So today we want to know when it comes

:01:42. > :01:43.to travelling by air what is most important to you?

:01:44. > :01:45.Bigger seats, more leg room, or is just about security?

:01:46. > :02:09.The British Finance Minister is today flying to New York

:02:10. > :02:14.for talks with major investors in an effort to strengthen trade

:02:15. > :02:17.links between the US and the UK after the vote to leave

:02:18. > :02:25.In a piece for the Wall Street Journal George Osborne said that

:02:26. > :02:38.improving ties with the US is now a "top priority".

:02:39. > :02:40.The two countries are each other's largest investors,

:02:41. > :02:52.with almost $1 trillion dollars invested in each other's economies.

:02:53. > :02:56.In fact the US invests 10 times more in the UK than it does in China

:02:57. > :02:59.while the UK invests 50 times more in the US than China does.

:03:00. > :03:02.Additionally a million people in the US work for British companies

:03:03. > :03:05.with the same number working for American firms in the UK.

:03:06. > :03:07.Andrew Walker is a BBC economics correspondent.

:03:08. > :03:16.Andrew, we are hearing about the numbers involved from Sally there.

:03:17. > :03:23.told we would be at the back of the queue for US- UK trade deals.

:03:24. > :03:28.that by President Obama, but you have to bear in mind that he is not

:03:29. > :03:30.the person managing the queue, as it were, it will be his successor.

:03:31. > :03:42.There is no question that for the US, the economic relationship

:03:43. > :03:47.with the EU will be a higher priority. It is a bigger economy

:03:48. > :03:54.than the UK. Having said that, the UK is no minnow. Because of the

:03:55. > :03:58.investment relationship in particular, it will be a big deal.

:03:59. > :03:59.The UK, bearing in mind that the United States the biggest single

:04:00. > :04:13.export market, clearly, it is a very important relationship.

:04:14. > :04:17.For the US, important. Maybe China and the rest of the EU are bigger,

:04:18. > :04:19.but not one to be ignored. In terms of deals that are currently

:04:20. > :04:22.in place. We have this massive deal going on

:04:23. > :04:33.between the US and Europe, TTIP. What does this mean for that, do you

:04:34. > :04:35.think? It means that Britain is ultimately

:04:36. > :04:41.not going to be a partner to that deal as it stands.

:04:42. > :04:44.Therein mind that we shouldn't assume

:04:45. > :04:48.that -- bear in mind that we shouldn't assume that that

:04:49. > :04:55.deal is nailed down. It has a long way to go and it is controversial,

:04:56. > :04:58.particularly on the European side. There are some provisions that are

:04:59. > :05:03.absolutely loathed by political absolutely loathed by political

:05:04. > :05:06.forces in Germany and here. Some people see it as a threat to the

:05:07. > :05:13.National Health Service. Some are concerned about provisions for

:05:14. > :05:17.companies to sue governments. The other point that campaigners for the

:05:18. > :05:20.Leave vote would make is that it is a lot easier to negotiate for one

:05:21. > :05:28.country than it is coordinate the negotiating positions

:05:29. > :05:30.of 28 members of the EU. The future, I think, for TTIP is

:05:31. > :05:36.deeply uncertain, but it will clearly be on Mr Osborne's mind

:05:37. > :05:43.while he is in the United States. Thank you, Andrew.

:05:44. > :05:45.Eurozone finance ministers will today meet in Brussels

:05:46. > :05:47.to discuss the state of the bloc's economies.

:05:48. > :05:50.High on the agenda will be whether or not to impose fines

:05:51. > :05:53.on Spain and Portugal for breaching the Eurozone's Stability

:05:54. > :05:58.Both countries have been running large budget deficits

:05:59. > :06:13.which exceed the agreed limit of 3 percent of GDP.

:06:14. > :06:15.Deutsche Boerse says it's considering lowering the approval

:06:16. > :06:17.threshold for its proposed merger with the London Stock

:06:18. > :06:20.The German exchange is concerned that the threshold could be hard

:06:21. > :06:23.to reach with the current structure of its voting shareholders.

:06:24. > :06:25.If the deal goes through, the tie-up will create the world's

:06:26. > :06:29.The outlook for the global economy remains grim despite it having

:06:30. > :06:32.overcome the impact of the 2008 financial crisis.

:06:33. > :06:35.That's the verdict of the world's 20 largest economies who have

:06:36. > :06:37.been meeting in Shanghai for a G20 summit.

:06:38. > :07:04.In June the World Bank cut its forecast for the global

:07:05. > :07:06.economy in 2016 from 2.9 percent to 2.4 percent.

:07:07. > :07:09.Let's take a look round the world at what's business stories

:07:10. > :07:13.First, the success of a new Pokemon app is good news for Japanese

:07:14. > :07:15.gaming company Nintendo - who's shares are soaring.

:07:16. > :07:20.Ashleigh Nghiem has been following the story.

:07:21. > :07:28.Some argue about -- arguing about the value of these things and say it

:07:29. > :07:32.is hard to gauge the value of companies that are not making

:07:33. > :07:33.profits. Big profits expected for airline

:07:34. > :07:45.manufacturers. The Farnborough airshow is the

:07:46. > :07:47.biggest international show of its kind, I think.

:07:48. > :07:52.Let's look at some other stories. Among the big winners on the markets

:07:53. > :08:06.today, Japan are doing well. First, the success of a new Pokemon

:08:07. > :08:09.app is good news for Japanese gaming company Nintendo -

:08:10. > :08:11.who's shares are soaring. Ashleigh Nghiem has been

:08:12. > :08:22.following the story. Nintendo shares have surged 25%

:08:23. > :08:26.today. Since its debut last Friday, Pokemon Go has added $7 billion to

:08:27. > :08:31.the company's market value in just two days. What is the fuss about?

:08:32. > :08:39.The game is a clash between reality and fantasy. It gets people to move

:08:40. > :08:44.around their neighbourhoods to catch virtual Pokemon characters using

:08:45. > :08:51.their smartphones. Nintendo was late to move into mobile gaming, but at

:08:52. > :08:56.least one analyst has said that Pokemon Go would need to bring in

:08:57. > :09:00.more than $150 million each month to have any meaningful impact on the

:09:01. > :09:06.firm's profits. That is a pretty high number. Good

:09:07. > :09:13.to see you, Ashley. Look at the close in Tokyo - up almost 4%, a

:09:14. > :09:17.really good performance despite the fact that the yen is still extremely

:09:18. > :09:23.strong in relation to the dollar. Hong Kong followed suit. US payroll

:09:24. > :09:37.figures came through better than expected, which boosted trade in

:09:38. > :09:40.Asia. Japan's president got a majority in the upper chamber, which

:09:41. > :09:46.would allow him to push through some reforms. You can see gains are

:09:47. > :09:52.particularly strong in Germany and France. We will talk some more about

:09:53. > :10:00.the trading day in a moment, first, here is some era in New York to talk

:10:01. > :10:13.us through what to expect. -- Samira. Markets are hoping for a

:10:14. > :10:17.lift this week. The economy had 287,000 new jobs in the month of

:10:18. > :10:22.June. Demand is likely to pick up, good news for an economy that

:10:23. > :10:25.depends on consumer spending. Numbers on consumer prices,

:10:26. > :10:29.industrial production and consumer sentiment will also be released and

:10:30. > :10:35.could add more good cheer for investors. In earnings news, JP

:10:36. > :10:38.Morgan Chase will kick-off the US bank earnings season, whilst Fargo

:10:39. > :10:48.will announce results. Joning us is Maike Currie,

:10:49. > :10:57.investment director Quite a lot going on, but such a

:10:58. > :11:03.positive note to start the week across the board. Yes, and it is

:11:04. > :11:09.thanks to Friday's US job figures. Asian markets have risen

:11:10. > :11:15.significantly. Not as strong a week as we expected, though. The Nintendo

:11:16. > :11:21.news, it highlights the importance of tech. It is a core part of the

:11:22. > :11:25.Japanese market. The question it raises is the credibility of

:11:26. > :11:31.negative interest rates. The bank of Japan has moved into that negative

:11:32. > :11:36.territory, but still its currency is very strong. Looking ahead, there

:11:37. > :11:41.are various things going on in the US. We had the payroll numbers on

:11:42. > :11:46.Friday, which was positive. The previous month, it was that nasty

:11:47. > :11:53.surprise, not many jobs added to the economy. Give us your thoughts on

:11:54. > :11:55.where we are rat. There is a lot of negative news about the UK

:11:56. > :12:05.referendum and the negative impact of that. -- where we are at. I don't

:12:06. > :12:10.think we will see the US raising interest rates in July, probably not

:12:11. > :12:14.in September, but perhaps in December, which means it will be a

:12:15. > :12:20.full year since the last rate rise. Thank you for joining us. We will go

:12:21. > :12:28.through the papers shortly. Aaron is at Farnborough.

:12:29. > :12:35.Yes, it is one of the most important aviation events on the planet. Think

:12:36. > :12:39.big, think huge business, hundreds of billions of dollars of deals

:12:40. > :12:44.taking place here on the grounds of this airport. This year, there are

:12:45. > :12:48.some headwinds facing the industry. I have the big boss of bowling, he

:12:49. > :12:59.is standing in the wings, and he will join us live very shortly.

:13:00. > :13:04.Britain has enjoyed a generally strong economic recovery, but not

:13:05. > :13:11.all parts of the country are feeling the benefits. Then Thomson is in

:13:12. > :13:18.Skegness. He has been talked -- Ben Thomson. He has been talking to

:13:19. > :13:21.local businesses about boosting the economy in seaside towns. It is

:13:22. > :13:31.gloriously and quiet, but the problem is about how to get people

:13:32. > :13:38.here for the for the rest of the year. It is about getting more

:13:39. > :13:42.people coming here, more people working here and crucially, getting

:13:43. > :13:46.more people spending here. Craig Leyland is with me this morning. We

:13:47. > :13:50.look around and it is a glorious morning - you would wonder why

:13:51. > :13:56.people wouldn't want to come, but it is not always like this, and the

:13:57. > :14:02.challenge is to get people here all year round, how do you do it? We

:14:03. > :14:06.have about half ?1 billion a year of a tourist economy. It is about how

:14:07. > :14:10.we maintain that and make it an all year round economy. We are seeing

:14:11. > :14:14.inward investment from local businesses, and we are looking to

:14:15. > :14:18.attract outside business. We have a premier in planned, subject to

:14:19. > :14:25.planning permission, which will raise the profile. It is about

:14:26. > :14:30.getting infrastructure in place. It is cheaper for people to go overseas

:14:31. > :14:36.in many cases, but it is about investment in roads, railways.

:14:37. > :14:41.People are sane you can't get a meal after 6pm in some towns, and you

:14:42. > :14:46.can't get a train after 8pm to get home. We need to sort out that

:14:47. > :14:52.stuff. That's right. Those criticisms are well founded. I

:14:53. > :14:55.attended the British hospitality Association conference two weeks

:14:56. > :15:02.ago, where all these issues were raised. This is about making

:15:03. > :15:07.recommendations happen. We have to look at infrastructure. Rail

:15:08. > :15:12.infrastructure is another issue. Getting people here is critical. We

:15:13. > :15:18.have blue flag beaches here, they are a fantastic attraction all year

:15:19. > :15:25.round. We're cleaning them first thing in the morning. We have lots

:15:26. > :15:29.to offer. That is Ben, who is talking to politicians and leaders

:15:30. > :15:35.there. Aaron is at Farnborough. We are forever you could want us to

:15:36. > :15:47.be. -- we are wherever you could want us to be.

:15:48. > :15:55.This is Business Live. George Osborne is picking up the special

:15:56. > :15:59.relationship, going to the US for post-Brexit talks. All of the

:16:00. > :16:03.markets are in healthy shape, making gains at the start of Monday.

:16:04. > :16:12.And now let's get the inside track on the world of aviation.

:16:13. > :16:15.The Farnborough International Airshow is under way.

:16:16. > :16:22.It is a huge event that takes place every year.

:16:23. > :16:25.Again we can expect deals worth tens of billions of dollars to be done.

:16:26. > :16:28.All the biggest players in the industry are there along

:16:29. > :16:30.of course with our very own Aaron Heslehurst

:16:31. > :16:40.Where are you? I am here! As you keep saying, I am at Farnborough

:16:41. > :16:46.Airshow! Lug around! It is certainly one of the most important aviation

:16:47. > :16:49.events of the year. For the lay people, when we think of

:16:50. > :16:54.Farnborough, we think of the wonderful displays, the weapons of

:16:55. > :16:57.war, commercial aircraft doing their thing in the sky. Sometimes we

:16:58. > :17:01.forget that behind the scenes there are chalets and bungalows and

:17:02. > :17:10.pavilions behind the airport where big deals are being made. Every two

:17:11. > :17:16.years, this airshow, the last one, over $200 billion of aircraft orders

:17:17. > :17:20.placed. This year, some are saying perhaps not as big in terms of that

:17:21. > :17:25.number in terms of orders because of headwinds facing the industry. Let's

:17:26. > :17:29.find out. We have one of the biggest aeroplane makers in the world

:17:30. > :17:36.without, Boeing, and I am joined by the CEO, the President, he is

:17:37. > :17:40.everything. Dennis, welcome to Business Live. Boeing is 100 years

:17:41. > :17:45.old and you look pretty good for your age. Not bad for 100 years! We

:17:46. > :17:51.are a great company and we will celebrate the centennial this

:17:52. > :17:56.Friday. Let's talk about Turkey. You had a cracking year in 2014 at

:17:57. > :18:03.Farnborough. Even last year, some great borders, a lot of aeroplanes

:18:04. > :18:08.on the order books. How is business given the global economic climate?

:18:09. > :18:13.Generally strong. We have 750 commercial aircraft in backlog. Our

:18:14. > :18:17.orders are about 121 this year. We have tough economic situations

:18:18. > :18:23.around the world but we still sees strong passenger growth overall.

:18:24. > :18:29.Some airlines are hesitant, going forward, about the current climate.

:18:30. > :18:35.They are delaying their orders. Have you seen that? We continued to see

:18:36. > :18:40.strong orders in the narrow bodies, small aircraft, worldwide. Some

:18:41. > :18:44.hesitancy in the wide bodies, which is where we see market demand and

:18:45. > :18:51.economic uncertainty. Over the next 20 years, we still see global market

:18:52. > :19:05.demand for 99,000 new aircraft. Wow. Despite Chinese pick-ups? --

:19:06. > :19:11.hiccups? We still see passenger growth in China at 15 to 30%. Back

:19:12. > :19:19.to the narrow bodies, short to mid range. The Boeing 737 Max is your

:19:20. > :19:25.competition to the Airbus 320. A little birdie has told me it has

:19:26. > :19:30.been outselling yours. Not really. We launched the Max about one year

:19:31. > :19:37.after Airbus, and since then it has been about 50-50 market share. We

:19:38. > :19:44.have sold more than 200 maxes and we will be flying it at Farnborough for

:19:45. > :19:47.the first time. Some may not know this, but UK aerospace industry is

:19:48. > :19:53.the second-largest in the world the United States. It employs 130,000

:19:54. > :19:58.people and contributes billions of dollars to the economy. I guess that

:19:59. > :20:01.will be highlighted today. You are going to meet the Prime Minister,

:20:02. > :20:06.David Cameron, and he is going to put pen to paper on a new deal. We

:20:07. > :20:11.are excited about our growth in the UK. It is our third biggest Boeing

:20:12. > :20:15.operation globally. Great supply chain, great technology, great

:20:16. > :20:19.talent, and we will be announcing additional growth and investment as

:20:20. > :20:27.part of our prosperity initiative to Drake, including great news about

:20:28. > :20:33.the PA. That is a naval aircraft. And the Prime Minister will be

:20:34. > :20:40.signing an update, or a deal on updating the Apache helicopters. You

:20:41. > :20:45.started as an intern at Boeing 30 years ago. This has got to be an

:20:46. > :20:49.American success story. I started as an engineering intern in Seattle 30

:20:50. > :20:53.years ago and it is an extraordinary privilege to lead the company today.

:20:54. > :20:56.And think about what the world has done in terms of changing in the

:20:57. > :21:05.last century and what aircraft has done. Walking on the to walking on

:21:06. > :21:08.the moon, from riding horses to flying aircraft. To have the

:21:09. > :21:13.privilege to lead this company at our centennial is a privilege. The

:21:14. > :21:19.future is even greater. It is phenomenal. Where this industry has

:21:20. > :21:25.gone and where your company has gone in 100 years. You wonder what next?

:21:26. > :21:31.How do you go beyond the Dreamliner? Composite material and high-tech

:21:32. > :21:36.technology. Aeroplanes have been the same for lots of years, fuse a

:21:37. > :21:41.large, wings and a tail. We are looking at commercial aeroplanes to

:21:42. > :21:44.make them safer, more efficient and environmentally friendly. We are

:21:45. > :21:47.looking at higher speed transportation, so maybe a future

:21:48. > :21:52.where supersonic aircraft can get you anywhere in the world in an hour

:21:53. > :21:57.or two. We are now building the first rocket to take the first human

:21:58. > :21:59.to Mars. That is not going to be me! Dennis, we appreciate it and thank

:22:00. > :22:16.you for joining on Business Live. The

:22:17. > :22:18.Chinese are here in a very big way. For the first time they have their

:22:19. > :22:21.own national pavilion and the Chinese are saying they are open for

:22:22. > :22:23.business. The Chinese say they are ready to compete with the big guys.

:22:24. > :22:26.Plenty more from Farnborough Airshow throughout the day. See you soon.

:22:27. > :22:30.Thank you. He will be there all week, so we will hear from him. You

:22:31. > :22:36.could hear the engines or the world's largest hairdryer behind

:22:37. > :22:39.him! We asked you to get in touch with your thoughts on the most

:22:40. > :22:45.important thing when it comes to air travel. Viewers have said that he is

:22:46. > :22:50.like a boy in a candy store. You have also been tweeting us about

:22:51. > :22:55.that question that what is most important to you. James says troops

:22:56. > :22:57.service that does not feel economically calculated or

:22:58. > :23:04.artificial. Attention to fine detail when I am flying. Johann said price

:23:05. > :23:09.and legroom in particular. Boeing aircraft are more legroom than ever.

:23:10. > :23:13.Let us know if you are watching from Airbus. Either they have something

:23:14. > :23:19.to say. And this one, security and security, nothing precedes it. Maike

:23:20. > :23:23.Currie is with us in the studio. You are from South Africa and you do

:23:24. > :23:29.that flight all the time so what is important to you? It is a long

:23:30. > :23:33.flight, 12 hours. Comfort, service and the in-flight entertainment

:23:34. > :23:37.system needs to work. That is a good point. I did a 16 hour flight from

:23:38. > :23:41.Sydney to Dubai and the entertainment system was broken in

:23:42. > :23:47.the seat and I only had the channel that gives you the food of the

:23:48. > :23:50.interview with the chief executive! When I go on a flight with my

:23:51. > :23:52.family, three little boys, my challenge is getting to the end of

:23:53. > :23:56.the flight without drinks down my front. If I can get to the other end

:23:57. > :24:04.clean, I have achieved something. And that is not me spilling! The

:24:05. > :24:09.children! I am not clumsy. Other stories in the papers now. Theresa

:24:10. > :24:11.May, one of two women vying for the new leadership role of the
