Carney: Brexit could trigger ‘extreme fragmentation’ of EU markets
Lack of agreement on derivatives likely to be more costly for European markets than UK ones, BoE governor says

A key point of contention on financial services after Brexit is the continuity of contracts for insurance policies and derivatives. The BoE has repeatedly stressed the need for authorities to intervene, while EU institutions have said they believe firms can handle the issue on their own.
