It's been a little more than three months since Britons voted to leave the European
Union.
Since then, what's been coined as Brexit has been making headlines not just in this country
or even Europe but all across the globe including Korea.
Post-Brexit state of the UK economy: Let's get an analysis right here from on the ground.
I'm joined by two gentlemen live in our London studio with me.
To my immediate left is Andre Spicer, Professor at the Cass Business School, City University
of London...
Welcome to the program.
and further to my left Gabriel Leon, Lecturer of Political Economy at King's College London.
Thank you both for joining us today.
So, Brexit.
I'm sure it's one word you've heard more than a million times by now.
Let me begin with this common question for the both of you.
What have been the consequences of
the new political and economic scene in the UK that has emerged since
the Brexit vote?
The papers here in London just today featured news of a strong UK economy post referendum.
Then, what's next for the UK?
Breaking off from the EU means that the UK is no longer a part of the region's exclusive
economic zone and FTAs with countries all over the world, including South Korea.
Is the UK equipped to trade on its own?
How are some obvious trading partners it will look to?
Is South Korea one of these?
Professors, would love to speak with
you more but because of time restricitons, I'm going to
cut
to my final question.
Your forecasts of the state of the UK economy in
the mid to long term?
And all remains to be seen.
Thank you gentlemen for sharing your insights with us.
It was lovely talking to
you both.
