After the result of the Brexit election and how much this could affect the risk of any company based on the UK, many managers have decided to have a fixed branch and or firm settled in the EEC area to reduce risks and to deal with any unfavourable situation that could arrive in the next future.

Brexit will affect directly the PR and profitability of the British companies that are exclusively based on the UK therefore to overtake the situation thinking in expanding nearly any company seems to be an accurate decision.

Where to go is something to bear in mind, due to the fact that again the PR will be affected by the tax rate of different countries in Europe. On the other hand, communication is crucial as well so the choice is not that simple.

We all know that the politicians sometimes think and react in a different way as entrepreneurs and managers do and as per the recent history of their decisions it is worth to prepare a strategy that would help our companies to suffer unpleasant situations.
