Description

Three years after the UK’s momentous EU referendum vote, multiple Brexit Secretaries and three rejected deals, the question remains: what exactly does the UK want?

The UK’s financial services sector is deemed to be one of the most vulnerable to the impact of Brexit, and the consequential effect on the rest of the UK economy could be devastating. Despite benefitting from access to the Single Market, a significant proportion of the financial services industry voted ‘leave’. But rather than being driven by anti-immigration or xenophobic sentiments, research indicates it was based on a rational assessment of the cost and benefit of the EU membership, influenced by the post-crisis regulatory reform. The industry is disproportionally impacted by Brexit due to the divergence of business models within the industry, based on the relative reliance on domestic, international or European trade.

Brexit – The Benefit of Hindsight analyses a number of economic indicators to answer the unanswerable question: what does the UK want? Will the UK economy suffer in the uncertainty surrounding our future or will we emerge stronger?

Not an easy read. However, this little book explains what it is we are hearing in the news. Felt I knew more about the subject of Brexit once I finished it.

Was this review helpful?

This was a doctorate research project and mainly considered the corporate financial industry issues. There were some parts that mentioned the effect on the public. As a doctoral publication it is good but for the general public it is not reading material. I chose this to get insights which I failed to get as I can appreciate the issues that could flow down from the financial institutes falling behind the EU but I expected a more round approach to hindsight.
As a general public reading book it only warranted a one star but as a research project it warranted a lot more which is why I settled for 3 stars.
