Save the (Brexit) date

The British Institute of International and Comparative Law (BICL) is hosting an event at its office in Russell Square, London WC1, on the implications of Brexit on trade and investment on Monday 12 September 2016. The event, which starts at 5pm, will look at existing trade and investment agreements to which both the EU and its member states in their own right are parties; the options for future trade and investment agreements, both by the EU and the UK; and the UK’s negotiating power in the area.
