But why is inflation coming down? And with all the news of job cuts, could you buy peace of mind by taking out private unemployment insurance? Also; billions of bucks of US taxpayers cash have already been diverted to bailout the American banking system. But should its struggling car makers get a big Federal handout too? That's the question that's being debated in Congress this week. Wake up to Money has been tracking the progress of the BBC's Box; which you may remember is a bright red shipping container painted with the BBC's logo that's travelling the globe to illustrate how globalisation is affecting us all.

The world wants more of our food and drink than ever before. But why have exports increased so rapidly? Also; Japan is in Recession for the first time in seven years. It follows news at the end of last week that the Eurozone had also had two consecutive quarters of negative growth. The CBI has revised its economic forecast for the coming year predicting the economy will contract by 1.7 percent in 2009 and unemployment will hit almost 10 percent of Britain's workforce. Finally we discuss if world leaders managed to reach some agreements on the weekend about how to deal with the global economic turmoil.Andy Verity and Mickey Clark present this morning's business stories, including: In what's supposed to be the toughest world economy for years, there's been a big jump in food exports.

This comes just couple of days after the Bank of England gave its most gloomy assessment of the UK economy. This weekend the leaders of the G20 are meeting but what can they do to fix the global economic mess? Also today there's a meeting of companies and people owed money by the bankrupt US investment bank that started all the recent trouble; Lehman Brothers. Do they have any chance of getting their money back? Finally, research into executive rewards published this morning shows the basic pay for a managing director of a small company is £65,000 substantially less than a GP, according to the Institute of Directors that published the research, from fat cattery. It also highlights the gap between those at the top of large financial services firms and those running the smallest companies.Andy Verity and Mickey Clark present this morning's business stories, including: Later this morning we're expecting official confirmation that Europe is in recession.
