The U.K.’s planned departure date from the European Union is rapidly approaching, but a Brexit agreement remains elusive. As they plan for the future, the more than 7,500 U.S. firms with operations in the U.K. are challenged to understand the implications of Brexit for the U.K. economy and future access to E.U. markets. Many of these U.S. companies—and others who make up the more than $100BN in annual U.S. exports to the U.K.—have already invested significant resources in preparing for a post-Brexit world without a clear view of the road ahead. How will a “no deal” scenario—which looks increasingly possible—impact trade with the U.K., its corporate structure, and the outlook for the U.K. economy overall?
Join us for a fast-paced webinar as Stuart Green, Chief Economist at Santander Corporate & Investment Bank U.K., discusses Brexit, the potential outcomes, and what they mean for U.S. companies operating in the U.K.
