	Description:		Royal Dutch Shell is facing prosecution in the Netherlands over a Nigerian oilfield. Our reporter discusses the background to the case, which alleges corruption in how the oilfield was acquired. Also in the programme, with just four weeks until the UK's scheduled departure from the European Union, Robin Kyle of Seven Investment Management tells us how Scottish businesses are preparing. The electric car maker Tesla has launched a $35,000 version of its entry-level car, but our reporter explains how the firm plans to close showrooms and switch to an online-only sales model to make the move profitable. We travel to the Craft Beer Rising festival in London to find out how the beer industry is evolving. Plus we look back at the rest of the week's big business stories with Charlie Wells of The Economist in London, and Melody Hahm of Yahoo Finance in New York.
