Brexit

Will your Brexit plans be triggered by the right signals?

Countdown to Brexit:
31 January,
23:00 GMT

My countdown Countdown

Article 50 has been extended again and a No Deal on 31 January is the new default planning scenario. Termed a ‘flextension’, the UK has the option to leave before the deadline if Parliament approve a deal.

All impacted companies should now have a Brexit plan in place for critical impacts and have triggered mitigating actions where dictated by lead times or business-critical impacts. We’re supporting organisations at every stage of preparedness. Contact us to find out how we can help.

How should business assess the new deal?
