  2. In reply to

    . on the contrary I think PM has a good idea; not her fault her predecessor & Whitehall did not prepare for possible Leave Vote

  3. Idea of a transitional arrangement is sensible if it is a safe stepping stone to a better location, but not good if becomes an end in itself

  4. Understandable PM does not want to give away negotiating position but then problem is info like this can be interpreted in different ways

  5. Due to be on at 7am 'ish to discuss yesterday's speech by PM including idea of translational arrangement with EU.

  6. Lord Kerr has this utterly wrong:

  7. & clearly vital that City (including insurance) needs should figure highly in future UK relationship with EU, but don't panic & look at data

  8. Key point is that this is 2 way as with most of City; we are after all a global financial centre and the leading one in Europe.

  9. And re Solvency II (insurance) the outbound passports were 220 and inbound were 726.

  10. Also under IMD (insurance brokers) I was told there were 2,758 passports outbound from UK & there are 5,727 passports into U.K.

  11. He seemed to be doing just that. I gave talk to insurers say month & they told me Lloyds of London did 4 per cent of their business with EU

  12. Just listening to a leading U.K. Insurer from ABI speaking on saying he doesn't wants to scaremonger but ....

  13. In reply to

    . Yes that seems like sensible approach for NZ. Lots of scope for FTAs.

  14. The big issue in Asia currently is weakness of Chinese currency; further worries about trade outlook & current USD strength may weigh on it.

  15. But TPP11 without US not ideal for Japan; wanted to boost investment into & out of US & help service sector productivity via FDI into Japan

  16. I think in TPP chapter 30 6 counties have to ratify and have > 85 per cent of GDP so now they have to decide whether to proceed with TPP 11

  17. Trump says he will issue executive action on first day in office withdrawing USA from Trans-Pacific Partnership

  18. Interesting - China has strong regional role it can play - and one of the two cities that gains most from Belt Road is IstanbuI
