This is the last regular edition of 2015, and as some of the team take a short break, we'd like to wish a merry Christmas and Habari Gani for those marking Kwanzaa.
This has been a tough year on many fronts - natural disasters, terror attacks, economic weakness in some markets and plenty of other challenges. But we seem to have made it through - and some have done very well in the process.
We'll examine some of those developments in our review of 2015 when we return on December 31st with a special edition looking back on the year that's been and forward to what lies ahead in 2016.
Until then, enjoy your break if you have one, and we look forward to soon kicking off the new year with a renewed sense of optimism and purpose.
