Brexit: The United Kingdom and EU Financial Services

This briefing prepared by the Economic Governance Support Unit of DG Internal Policies of the European Parliament describes the prominent role of the UK in the single market for financial services, and highlights which activities rely today on passporting for their daily business with the other 27 Member States. The briefing relies on publicly available information, including secondary sources, such as analytical papers done by research institutes and private sector companies. The briefing may be regularly updated pending new information.
