January 2021: "Meanwhile Rishi Sunak
has the
importance of enrolling finance into wider green economic recovery policies and
supporting the development of digital finance.
He is right to note that the future of the sector is not just a London issue. It adds around £130 billion to the UK economy and 1.1 million jobs. For example, in Edinburgh around 10% of jobs are in financial and related professional services."

On 1 January 2021, the United Kingdom will lose all the
rights and obligations it had as an EU Member State and during the transition
period under the Withdrawal Agreement. It will no longer benefit from seamless
access to the EU Single Market and Customs Union, or from EU policies and
international agreements (including its free trade agreements with other third
countries).
This will create new barriers to trade in goods and
services, and to cross-border mobility and exchanges that do not exist today –
in both directions. While the new agreement will serve to limit disruptions
compared to a situation without an agreement being in place, public
administrations, businesses, citizens and stakeholders on both sides will
inevitably be affected. The Commission has issued extensive guidance on how
best to deal with these changes.
