The Commonwealth is a group of 56 countries, most of whom have deep ties to the former British empire. The coronation of King Charles III is raising questions about whether this political association is still relevant today.
Today on the show, we look at some of these questions through an economic lens and explore how Commonwealth countries in the Caribbean are thinking about the future of their relationship with the UK.
