Barnier denies Brexit deal
The EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier denied the report claiming that London and Brussels had reached a preliminary agreement covering financial services and data. Barnier called the report “misleading”, while British Prime Minister Theresa May’s spokesman played it down as “speculation”.
“Misleading press articles today on Brexit & financial services,” Barnier wrote on Twitter. “Reminder: EU may grant and withdraw equivalence in some financial services autonomously. As with other 3rd countries, EU ready to have close regulatory dialogue with UK in full respect for autonomy of both parties.”
