Reuters , Thursday 24 Dec 2020

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson says the deal on financial services would still "enable our dynamic City of London to get on and prosper, as never before"

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Thursday the trade deal with the European Union did not contain as much as he would have liked on regulatory equivalence for financial services, but still contained some "good language".

"There's some good language about equivalence for financial services, perhaps not as much as we would have liked, but it is nonetheless going to enable our dynamic City of London to get on and prosper, as never before," Johnson told a news conference.
