Beyond Brexit
Leading in changing times
As the UK begins the negotiation of our exit from the European Union, UK businesses will be considering how the new political landscape will affect their ability to trade in Europe and globally. On these pages, you will find our experts’ opinions and thought leadership to help you navigate through the coming changes and find the opportunity in Brexit for your business.
“The triggering of Article 50 represents an important moment for the UK. After months of uncertainty the UK is starting its formal exit path from the EU.
There is much discussion and debate on the challenges to navigate through the negotiations on trade, immigration and customs. Of course, the ongoing relationship with the EU should not be underestimated and we must work to cultivate a healthy relationship as it is in everyone’s interests to have a competitive EU. But, for many there will be a sense of relief that we can get on with ‘the business of business’ and focus on how we can make the best of Brexit to help shape a new future for the UK."
