11:15 - 12:00Brexit economic uncertainty
Swati Dhingra, Lecturer in Economics, London School of Economics
The focus of this workshop is to strip away the myths and look at the facts not only about what might happen to the UK economy but also the implications for Europe and elsewhere.
Brexit political instability
John Raines, Deputy Head of Political Risk & Forecasting, IHS
The Brexit vote had an immediate and substantial political impact with a new UK Prime Minister and Cabinet. It also created an existential threat to the Labour Party and raised the possibility of another Scottish referendum. It might even be the catalyst that breaks up the EU. This workshop will look at how the political risk landscape is likely to develop.
Brexit supply chain risks
Duncan Ford, Crisis and Continuity Management Consultant, Corpress
This session will examine how UK companies are likely to be affected by Brexit in terms of dealing with suppliers in the EU and European (non UK-based) companies with suppliers in the UK.
Brexit scenario planning
Gareth Jones, Crisis Interface
The Brexit situation demands uncertainty reduction techniques, such as scenario planning and wargames. This session will look to reduce some of the unknowns and provide more information on threats to business and also opportunities.
Ensuring business continuity post Brexit
John Robinson, Inoni
Brexit will impact on companies on multiple levels and poses significant risks in terms of business continuity. This session will look at the likely threats and consider how multinationals can best deal with these.
Brexit and the impact on sterling
Antonio Rami, Co-Founder, Kantox
Sterling has continued to drop against the US dollar since the Brexit vote and may even reach parity by the end of the year. This workshop will assess how much currency volatility can be expected in the short, medium and long term.
