Richard Quest (BBC World Business News)
Created | Updated Jan 28, 2002
If you think business and finance are dull and dry and you receive BBC World News - then prepare to change your mind! At 22.30 CET1 tune in to the Business News with Richard Quest in New York and Patrick O'Connell in London2.
Watching them for the first time might leave you slightly dazed and confused, asking yourself whether they actually are serious about it. But, yes, they are.
But as you came in Quest of Richard, here a short description of this man. He has this certain glint in his eyes you would rather expect from people on the verge of turning into raging madmen. His behaviour also has a certain air of frenzy. But he has stayed calm so far. He was born in 1962 in West Yorkshire, UK, but now works for the BBC business section mainly from New York. Watching him you could have the impression he likes his job quite a lot, especially when he is send out to report from sunny places (like California). And he always wears rather colourful ties...

And with this I want to leave you with his favourite sentence: "Whatever you're up to in the next 24 hours, I hope it's profitable."
