Brexit Will Not Make Me Wealthier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On Thursday 23rd August, the Government is set to release the first of 84 documents outlining the United Kingdom’s contingency plan for a no-deal Brexit scenario, with one of the documents focused on the impact to Britain’s financial services. With this in mind, the Enterprise Investment Scheme Association (EISA) has released a national and investor representative piece of research, gauging whether the British public and its investors feel that they will be wealthier in a post-Brexit UK. Please let me know if this is of interest to you as an exclusive.<\/p>\n

With the date that Britain leaves the EU edging ever closer, the Enterprise Investment Scheme Association (EISA) has today\u00a0launched The Brexit Wealth Index 2018.\u00a0Based on research conducted across a sample of 2007 respondents – of which – \u00a01,122 were nationally representative investors, the data outlines the wealth creation opportunities available to them post-Brexit. Providing anecdotal and quantitative analysis as to whether the country will be richer after leaving the European Union, the survey specifically questions whether they feel their individual wealth will and has increased after the decision to leave was made.<\/p>\n

13 million investors believe that Brexit will not make them wealthier. This amounts to 44% of British investors, versus a fifth (19%) who\u00a0believe that it will make them wealthier. Of the wider sample, 14.5 million British investors believe that their wealth has not increased since the referendum decision in June 2016, while 5.5 million do believe that their wealth has increased since the vote to leave was made.<\/p>\n
