Manage episode 203802154 series 1301464
In the Balance asks whether the 53 countries of the Commonwealth could become a new force in global trade. With rising trade protectionism around the world, and the UK splitting off from the European Union, how important could this grouping of diverse nations be to the future of international trade?

The programme comes from the historic royal palace of Marlborough House in London, headquarters of the Commonwealth movement.
