Last week was pretty strong for the Pound as we saw 1.15 break briefly against the Euro- this was due to reports coming from Parliament that a Brexit deal is “95% done” which had the market certain that a deal could be done in November. As the week ended,...

I am sure by now we are all sick of these Brexit headlines, but unfortunately, until we have a resolution they will continue. The UK seems confident that a deal will happen this month- the only problem being this isn’t the first time we have heard these sort of...
