Business after Brexit
Defining the new EU-UK relationship
The transition period ended on 31 December 2020 and the UK left the EU single market and customs union resulting in major impacts on a wide range of issues across multiple jurisdictions and industries, including banking and finance, trade and transport, asset management, and energy and resources.
The differences between the UK and EU regulatory regimes continue to emerge, therefore our resources aim to keep you up to date with latest developments and to help you navigate your business through the developing trade landscapes around the world. Our expert multi-disciplinary team can help you navigate the new EU-UK relationship and review your contracts, disputes risks, tax situation, trade and supply chains, regulation in your sector, as well as advise you on data protection and intellectual property, competition and consumer regulation, and immigration and employment issues.
