Jim Rogers: The serious problems in emerging markets 'are going to get worse'




 A recent report, published by the European Commission, revealed that corruption costs the EU roughly $120 billion a year. That's around 1% of economic output. Where is the corruption and where is it squeaky clean? Erin Ade reports.

Famed investor and author Jim Rogers is a bull on China and Asia. He sees a shift in the economic importance of Asia, and has even relocated his family to Singapore - to be a part of it! But right now the emerging markets are a big concern. Erin was keen to get Jim's view on the crisis in emerging markets and she certainly does. Jim also gives his view on the US, European, Japanese and Chinese economies -- and the Gold Standard.

In the 'Big Deal,' Erin and Boom Bust producer Edward Harrison discuss money. What exactly does the pyramid on the back of a dollar bill symbolize? And where does a pound or a dollar really derive its value? Erin and Edward explain.

Interest Rates around the world are going higher


The interest rates around the world are going higher. If the US considers further tapering, then, I think, global markets will eventually have to suffer. If you take this whole ocean of liquidity out of the financial markets, somebody is going to suffer. When the US starts tapering, the less developed markets will suffer first.
The flows into emerging markets will come under pressure. Whether the Federal Reserve is going to taper for second time or third time, the markets around the world are going to suffer.
