U.K. financial services firms will retain rights in EU - Johnson

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/british-financial-services-firms-win-191848540.html

British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said on Friday he expects the U.K. to retain the right for its financial firms to sell services across European Union member states after Britain's exit from the bloc.

One main concern that remains is whether Britain's financial services sector will keep its so-called "passporting" rights.

Passporting is a lynchpin feature of the EU's single market, especially for banks, as it allows firms to provide services to clients across the EU. The loss of it for U.K.-based firms could cripple London's standing as a global financial center.

Johnson told reporters that he had received reassurances from companies, including banks, drug makers and manufacturers, that Britain remained "very much part" of their global business footprint, although they expressed concern over the uncertainty ahead over how the U.K. government negotiates its separation from the EU.
