The resumption of Swiss stocks trading in London is a small win for the City, but in the absence of a Brexit deal for financial services “its a free kick getting Switzerland back, its not an equalizer,” says Alasdair Haynes, CEO of the Aquis Exchange.
Haynes says the UK government’s snub of the financial services industry in its Brexit deal was an “own goal”.
