After a summer for little progress is a “no deal” Brexit or “hard” Brexit inevitable? As the range of Brexit driven outcomes for Irish economy and global financial markets increase, for what scenarios should Irish based financial institutions now prepare over the next six month to March 2019 and beyond?
We look at the implications of this higher level of tail risk from an economic perspective and the potential knock impacts to the banking and insurance sectors.
Specifically, using a range of expert contributors we will discuss :
- what is a “no deal “ Brexit and what are the risks associated other “agreed” negotiated outcomes
- how should institutions prepare for a very uncertain run into March 2019 and its aftermath
- how will this uncertainty impact the view on the Irish economy and beyond
