Negotiating Brexit: The Trade Dimensions

Venue: Yasuko Hiraoka Myer Room, Sidney Myer Asia Centre

Presenters: Professor Alan Winters

The UK government has committed to clear the way to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty to leave the European Union. Thus by April 2019, we expect the UK to no longer be a member and will consequently need its own international trade policy.

This has formal elements - such as 'regularising' its position in the WTO - and policy elements - what sort of trade agreements it will negotiate with other countries, including the remainder of the EU.

Professor Alan Winters, Professor of Economics at the University of Sussex, will discuss these issues in the light of the most recent analysis and political developments.
