Programming note: Squawk Box Europe on Monday on CNBC Africa will be live from Paris, France.


What the business channel CNBC Africa (DStv 410) won't tell you (and probably don't even know), I will: Squawk Box Europe will be done entirely live from Paris, France this Monday 16 April from the Palais Brongniart, the former home of the French Stock Exchange.

South African TV viewers will be able to see Squawk Box Europe this Monday from between 10:00 to 11:00 (although its on for 3 hours overseas).

With the French Presidential election less than a week away, Squawk Box Europe on Monday will provide local expert analysis on the health of the country's economy, the impact of the election on business in France and the significance of France's role in leading the Euro zone out of the credit crisis.

The presenters Steve Sedgwick and Karen Tso will be joined by Paris reporter Stéphane Pedrazzi for the programme, which is usually produced live from CNBC Europe's regional headquarters in London.
