The updated Capital Markets section of our Brexit Legal
Guide is now available.
This provides a useful overview of:
- whether existing market arrangements
will be maintained during the current transition period;
- the likely shape of the UK’s
post-Brexit listing and prospectus regime;
- whether equivalence will be possible
and alternative options for firms in the event that it is not;
and
- the effect of Brexit on the future
plans for the creation of the new EU capital markets union
(“CMU”).
If you would like to discuss specific arrangements for support
through the risks of the move to an uncertain future relationship,
on how you might express the concerns of your business to
governments, on dispute risks that may arise, or on any other
questions or challenges you have, please do contact your regular
Herbert Smith Freehills relationship contacts, or otherwise any of
our experts listed here.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
