Join Charlie Falconer, Michelle Kirschner, Ali Nikpay, Attila Borsos and Matt Aleksic in a discussion of the Christmas Eve Brexit deal and whether it is good or bad for business.
The webinar will provide an overview of the main structural changes of the deal and what the United Kingdom’s future relationship with the European Union will look like. We will then focus on what the deal means for trade (including supply chains and tariffs), financial services and competition law and what businesses need to do to respond and what to expect in the coming months.
