Fascinating on how erecting trade barriers can impact investment, based on Brexit experience of UK
Thread on what Brexit might tell us about how US tariffs could impact investment. We saw 2 key impacts: 1)UK FDI into EU went up (but in a very particular way) 2)Business investment in UK flatlined US hopes a version of 1) will happen. What does Brexit experience suggest?...1/

Dear British friends,I’m so sorry you left the #EU 5 years ago. I still don’t think #Brexit was a good idea but then and now I do respect the choice made. Now, more than ever,is time to minimise the losses of divorce & maximise the potential of friendship. #StrongerTogether

For those of you lucky enough to enjoy bonuses!
There are high hopes for #bonusseason in the City this year - but how does yours measure up? Early entries to the FT's Bonus Survey show the trend is for lower base pay and higher incentives... it's anonymous and fast if you're one of the lucky ones:
