Three businessmen advising the incoming US President tell us what to expect from him. Trade war with China? Millions of citizens stripped of their health insurance? A recarbonised US economy?

Rich Lesser, chief executive of Boston Consulting Group, talks trade, tax and business policies. Toby Cosgrove, head of Cleveland Clinic healthcare, plays down fears over Obamacare. And Daniel Yergin of analytics firm IHS discusses Trump's likely energy policies.

Presenter Joe Miller catches up with them on the last day of the World Economic Forum in Davos, where all three are laying out their stalls.

Joe also drops in on an incongruous "Mexico Night" event in this snowy Swiss ski resort, where he finds nervous Mexicans putting on a brave face.
