That's not a new announcement, it dates back to 2015! The company is reconfirming its three-year plan as it has just been granted planning permission for its site in Tolworth it acquired last year! Bad news for the more extreme Brexiters in town though as more of the country is exposed to European control and influence.

Let them go to Brussels, we're better off without them.
Any company is allowed to carry forward losses from previous years to offset against corporation tax and they all do it. That's one reason why VM was acquired by Liberty Global. This applies to any industry sector, not just financial services.

The banks aren't going to Brussels - Dublin, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Paris seem to be the favoured locations at the moment.

And yes, we do need financial services companies to support this country financially. "as an industry financial services, in total, contributes £66.5 billion in taxes to the UK exchequer in 2014/15, an increase of 1.4% from the previous year. This represents 11.0% of the total UK government tax receipts from an industry that employs 1.1 million people."

That pays for a lot of schools, hospitals, roads and armed servicemen. Are you proposing we cut them all by 11%?

Both parties (EU 27 and UK) will end up with some kind of agreement come what may. What that agreement is is the crucial thing.
