Apple's recently launched credit card is under investigation by financial regulators for apparently discriminating against women.

Customers have complained that the card's lending algorithms are offering less credit to women than to men.

Ian Guider, markets editor of The Sunday Business Post, joined us for The Last Word's daily business round-up with this story and more, including:

  • Prepaid Financial Services in Navan sold for €327 million
  • Walgreens could be sold for $70 billion
  • Construction activity has declined at the fastest rate since 2013
  • Wetherspoons owner told by shareholders to stop using official company platforms to support Brexit
