Britain in Line to Sign Major Trade Deals After Brexit
[Breitbart] Britain could strike free trade deals with South Korea, the U.S. and Brazil within a year of leaving the European Union (EU), according to a new report.The Trade Prospects Index, launched by former government adviser Matthew Oakley, names the three countries as the most likely to want to sign post-Brexit deals with the UK. The index urges the government to prioritise talks with countries it identifies as having the biggest potential economic value for the UK, and which are likely to be quick in bringing forward an agreement. South Korea is the most likely to sign a free trade deal with Britain, followed by America, Brazil, China and then Australia according to the report, which is backed by Heathrow Airport chiefs. Countries analysed in the Trade Prospects Index were ranked based on enthusiasm to sign a deal with Britain, financial services and the speed at which an agreement could be reached.
