Worldwide Exchange is a television business news program on CNBC channels around the world. It is broadcast live from studios on three continents. The global program is anchored by Michelle Caruso-Cabrera in New York, Ross Westgate in London and Christine Tan in Singapore, and is produced by CNBC Europe in London.

Regular segments include the Global Stock Watch, CEO Call, and US Lookahead (a preview of the US stock markets). Worldwide Exchange also has regular contributions from CNBC-Arabiya.

Worldwide Exchange began its broadcast on December 19, 2005, and is the first CNBC program to be jointly produced by three of the network's regional channels. It airs from 4am to 6am ET on CNBC in the United States, 10am to noon CET on CNBC Europe, and 4pm to 6pm (with DST) or 5pm to 7pm (without DST) Hong Kong/Singapore/Taiwan Time on CNBC Asia. As a result of the success of Worldwide Exchange, a second joint production, Capital Connection, debuted on CNBC Europe and CNBC Asia on March 26, 2007.

Worldwide Exchange replaced Wake Up Call, an early morning pre-market program on CNBC US; Morning Exchange, a mid-morning program on CNBC Europe; as well as Asia Market Wrap and CNBC Tonight on CNBC Asia, a daily wrap-up of the top business news in Asia.

Contents

[edit] Format

The programme begins with the three anchors introducing themselves from Asia, Europe, and United States, respectively, along with the headlines from each continent. A round-up of trading in Europe and Asia follows, along with a look at US stock futures, after which the top business stories in each continent are narrated in turn.

The first half-hour also features the programme's signature segment, the fast-paced "Global Stock Watch". The remainder of the program consists largely of a mix of business headlines (which are repeated in the programme's second hour), interviews with guests and issue-specific dispatches from CNBC reporters.

Two regular segments which appear towards the end of the broadcast are a preview of Squawk Box, (which immediately follows Worldwide Exchange in the US and Asia), and the "US Lookahead."

Also at the end of the broadcast before the three anchors sign off (if time permits), the US anchor (Caruso-Cabrera) takes a final look at US stock futures.

[edit] Segments

Below are some of the regular segments on Worldwide Exchange:

  • Global Stock Watch: This segment, seen after the first commercial break, begins with the final closing numbers in the Asian markets from CNBC Asia's reporters, followed by a summary of ongoing European trade and the latest from CNBC Europe's reporters, and concluding with a look at the highlights of the U.S. corporate and economic diaries. Available only on Worldwide Exchange.
  • Market Call: Seen during the second hour with a guest.
  • U.S. Lookahead: A preview of the day's trading in the U.S. stock markets with a guest.

[edit] Programme Facts

  • Worldwide Exchange is billed as "the first ever global business news broadcast."
  • The graphics used on the programme come from CNBC Europe, which explains the network that produces the show. These were actually used only on Worldwide Exchange for nine months before being extended to all other CNBC Europe programmes on September 18, 2006.
  • Worldwide Exchange is simulcast in the US on CNBC and CNBC World (also at 4am ET).
  • The FTSE CNBC Global 300 Index was unveiled on the September 18, 2006 edition of Worldwide Exchange.
