UK PM Theresa May is set to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty at the end of the month. That would mark the beginning of the two-year long divorce process from the EU.

The question on everyone’s mind is if the M&A boom/inward investment will dry up during the two-year period. To add to this, the economy also faces the risk of Scottish referendum.

Simon French, Chief Economist at Panmure Gordon joins us to discuss the impact of the uncertainty in the M&A space and economy as a whole. French says the more clarity (regarding Brexit deal) the more there will be the change in behaviour of consumers and business and vice versa.
