Financial services in a changing Europe: Brexit and financial centres across the UK

该奖学金旨在为英国与欧盟不断变化的关系对英国各地金融服务业的影响提供公正的证据和分析。金融及相关专业服务是英国经济的重要组成部分。这一重要性得到了一系列经济、政治和社会文化关系的支持，这些关系塑造了英国和欧盟之间的金融和专业服务贸易关系。特别是，英国金融和相关专业服务行业目前的规模和形态是由英国目前采用的欧盟法规决定的。其中最重要的是通行证，它允许一家获得监管机构一个欧盟成员国授权从事金融活动的公司在其他成员国开展这项业务，而无需进一步授权。伦敦金融区利用这些护照权利充当欧盟的金融中心。然而，随着英国与欧洲关系的变化，这种关系的未来性质尚不清楚。英国必须决定是与欧盟的金融服务监管趋同、寻求对等，还是背离欧盟的监管规定。此外，影响欧盟国民的移民政策的变化也将影响金融服务业，因为它依赖于英国的国际移民。作为回应，本奖学金旨在提供公正的证据和分析英国与欧盟关系变化对英国各地金融服务业的影响。该奖学金将把对二级报告、政策文件和官方数据的案头数据分析与英国四个金融中心(爱丁堡、诺丁汉、贝尔法斯特和伦敦)的深入定性研究结合起来。该奖学金的目的是：(1)综合了解英国与欧盟在金融和相关专业服务方面的现有贸易关系；(2)实时绘制英国脱离欧盟对英国与欧盟在金融和相关专业服务领域的贸易关系的影响；以及(3)向英国和欧洲内部的一系列利益相关者传递和传播知识、分析和理解，包括政界人士、记者、公务员、当地政策制定者、企业、公民社会和英国公众。该协会将与金融和相关专业服务部门的一系列利益相关者以及不断变化的欧洲研究团队中的英国成员密切合作。这包括CityUK、伦敦金融城公司、投资诺丁汉、米德兰引擎、Innovate Finance、Capital One和Experian。结果将通过以下方式与政策制定者、从业者、记者和公务员分享和讨论：关于英国和欧盟之间金融关系的最新报告，定期的博客和社交媒体报道，英国各地金融服务业的早餐简报，以及实时绘制英国与欧盟关系变化对金融和相关专业服务影响的英国退欧跟踪器。研究结果还将通过一系列同行评议的学术论文与人文地理学、社会学、国际政治经济学和英国政治学的跨学科学术受众分享。

This Fellowship aims to provide impartial evidence and analysis of the implications of Britain's changing relationship with the EU for the financial services sector across the UK. Financial and related professional services form a vital part of the UK's economy. This significance is underpinned by a series of economic, political and socio-cultural relations that shape the trading relationship in financial and professional services between the UK and the EU. In particular, the current size and shape of the UK's financial and related professional services sector is shaped by the UK's current adoption of EU regulations. The most significant of these is passporting which allows a firm authorised to undertake financial activities by the regulator one EU member state to undertake that business in other member states without requiring further authorisations. London's financial district has utilised these passporting rights to act as the financial hub for the EU.However, the future nature of this relationship is unknown as Britain's relationship with Europe changes. The UK has to decide whether to converge, seek equivalence with or diverge from EU regulations for financial services. Moreover, changes in immigration policy affecting EU nationals will also impact the financial services sector because of its reliance on international migrants in the UK.In response, this Fellowship aims to provide impartial evidence and analysis of the implications of Britain's changing relationship with the EU for the financial services sector across the UK. The Fellowship will combine desk based data analysis of secondary reports, policy documents and official data with in depth qualitative research in four financial centres across the UK (Edinburgh, Nottingham, Belfast and London). The Fellowship aims to: (1) synthesise understandings of the UK's existing trading relationship with the EU in financial and related professional services; (2) chart the implications of the UK's departure from the EU in real time for the UK's trading relationship with the EU in Financial and related professional services and (3) transfer and disseminate knowledge, analysis and understanding to a range of stakeholders within the UK and Europe including politicians, journalists, civil servants, local policy makers, businesses, civil society and the UK public.The Fellowship will involve working closely with a range of stakeholders from the financial and related professional services sector as well as members of the UK in a Changing Europe research team. This includes The CityUK, The City of London Corporation, Invest in Nottingham, The Midlands Engine, Innovate Finance, Capital One and Experian. Outcomes will be shared and discussed with policymakers, practitioners, journalists and civil servants through: a state of the art report on 'Financial relations between the UK and the EU, regular blog and social media reports, Breakfast briefings with the financial services sector across the UK and a Brexit Tracker to chart in real time the implications of the UK's changing relationship with the EU for financial and related professional services. Findings will also be shared with interdisciplinary academic audiences in human geography, sociology, international political economy and British politics through a series of peer reviewed academic papers.
