The relationship between the UK and the wider EU - as well as the Eurozone authorities - is brittle.

Nowhere is this more obvious than in the field of Financial Services.

The City remains a preeminent global centre at a time of great uncertainty across all markets.

The outcome of the forthcoming British General Election will, therefore, have cast a long shadow over how the relationship

between the UK and the EU is likely to evolve especially in the event of a referendum on the UK's membership.

This seminar will provide an opportunity to engage with, and reflect on, these and related issues, as the General Election looms.
