Others, use scenario planning, to take latest developments into account, to develop alternative post-Brexit strategies addressing issues related to people, policy and passporting of goods and services, etc.
Given Brexit, Luxembourg is a natural destination of choice for all alternative investments fund managers. It has expertise in Alternative investment vehicles. It is global fund-distribution centre. It has a multicultural workforce, and a stable tax and regulatory environment.

Our advise to our clients, in any event, is to continue to focus on their growth strategies, and to develop options to manage the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
