Thanks DTV for the excellent history.
TV Ark has this clip:

Clinton's speech to the WEF (the lead story here) took place on the 26th of January 1995, so we're only 10 days into the BBC World era here.
There's also a 1992 clip of "World Business News" from WSTV - with a familiar theme tune, and apparently Collaterlie Sisters presenting.

and from April 1994, a flags-era WSTV WBR, recorded from Star TV Malaysia (lest the mods get het up, as far as I can tell it was uploaded to YouTube by the person who recorded it)

So did "World Business News" and "World Business Report" co-exist in the early 90s, or did the brand come into being sometime in those two years?
