I'm struggling to find the correct regular expression to return:

'industry =[[Banking]], [[Financial services]] |products = [[Investment Banking]]'

from the following:

<?php
$x =  '[[Basel]] |key_people = [[Axel A. Weber]] (Chairman){{br}}[[Sergio  
Ermotti]] (CEO) {{br}} |area_served = Worldwide |industry =[[Banking]],   
[[Financial services]] |products = [[Investment Banking]]';
';
?>

Use preg_match to garb the last two parts of | delimited text.

preg_match('~(?<=\|)[^|]*\|[^|]*$~', $str);
