Following the UK's decision to leave the European Union (EU) after its recent referendum vote, Dentons has formed a Brexit response team which is helping to guide clients through the legal and commercial risks and opportunities presented by this decision and the practical next steps they will need to take. This response team is available to offer advice and know-how to clients around the world as the UK transitions towards leaving the EU. Martin Mankabady is a key member of that team. Listen as he discusses what Brexit might mean for current commitments and future transactions in the insurance industry.
