1995

A look back at the main business headlines of 1995. The last 12 months have seen the financial rescue of Mexico, how rogue trader Nick Leeson bankrupted Britain's oldest merchant bank, the City of London's biggest firms are being taken over by foreign rivals, a deal with Enron that would have seen the largest foreign investment in India's energy sector has been cancelled, and the views of media barons Rupert Murdoch and Ted Turner.
