Overview:

Leaving the EU is the single biggest decision the UK has taken in 50 years. The transition means the UK will face some of its greatest challenges. What will happen to employment, economic growth and the Union? Whatever happens will determine the future for you, your children, grandchildren and the businesses you work in or deal with.

In this environment focusing on your personal finances is a wise move. Economics is about consumption. People either spend money now or they use financial instruments – like bonds, shares and savings accounts – so they can spend later. In uncertain times we seek insurance protection from the financial consequences of damage and legal liability.

This event is timely, just a day after the general election when you will hear Trevor's expert comments and reaction to the result.

Learning objectives:

At the end of this event delegates will be able to identify

an analysis of the uncertainty the UK faces as it explores opportunities outside the EU
how to consider personal finances in the light of what will happen to employment, economic growth and the EU
how economic data can be used by professionals in a meaningful way to better educate their clients
