In a special series of interviews and reports, Sky News will be focusing on the collapse of Lehman Brothers, its impact across the globe, the lessons learnt and what the future holds, a year on from the day the bank failed in September 2008.
During three days of programming on Sky News, Business Presenter Anna Jones will report from locations across New York, including the former bank’s headquarters - now occupied by Barclays - and the world famous trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange, while interviewing top industry figures.
Among the top names interviewed during the series will be: Sir John Gieve, former Deputy Governor of the Bank of England; US Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke; Laura D'Andrea Tyson from the President's Economic Recovery Advisory Board; and London Mayor Boris Johnson,
who will be in New York at the time. Anna will also talk to former Lehman Brothers’ employees and industry commentators.
A special hour-long edition of Jeff Randall Live will broadcast from Sky’s West London studios on Monday 14 September, the eve of the collapse of Lehman Brothers. Among the guests will be William Donaldson, Chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission; Tony Lomas
from PriceWaterhouseCoopers, administrators for Lehman’s European operations; and Terry Smith, Chief Executive of City brokerage Tullett Prebon.
Interviews and special reports from Sunday 13 – Tuesday 15 September
