Evan Davis and guests debate the efficiency of the market at allocating investment capital to business. Do undeserving companies get more than they should?

The view from the top of business. Presented by Evan Davis, The Bottom Line cuts through confusion, statistics and spin to present a clearer view of the business world, through discussion with people running leading and emerging companies. The programme is broadcast first on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 and later on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service Radio, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World News TV and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ News Channel TV.

Evan and his executive guests consider how well the market works at allocating investment capital to the right businesses. Do deserving companies get enough, do the undeserving get more than they should?

Joining Evan in the studio are Terry Smith, chief executive of stockbrokers Tullett Prebon; Israeli serial entrepreneur and investor Yossi Vardi; Ken Olisa, chairman of boutique technology merchant bank Restoration Partners.

Producer: Ben Crighton
Editor: Stephen Chilcott.
