Understanding the UK’s new relationship with the EU

The case for business

The Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) between the UK and the EU offers a markedly different basis for market access. This means that there are a number of extra processes and considerations business must now take into account when trading between the UK and the EU.

The trading relationship between the UK and EU affects every business in the UK in different ways – whether you’re part of a pan-European supply chain, stock European products or rely on the skills of EU nationals.
