WHAT IS BREXIT ?
The people of Britain voted for a British exit, or Brexit, from
the EU in a historic referendum on Thursday June 23.
The outcome prompted jubilant celebrations among

Eurosceptics around the Continent and sent shockwaves
through the global economy.
On the one-year anniversary, Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage

said: “This time last year we dared to dream and then won an
historic victory.“
After the declaration of the referendum result, the pound fell

to its lowest level since 1985 and David Cameron resigned as
Prime Minister.
 Prime Minister Theresa May triggered Article 50 - the step that starts the
timer on two years of Brexit talks - in late March 2017.
 But Brexit was thrown into uncertainty when the Conservatives lost their
majority in a general election in June 2017, leaving Britain with a hung
parliament.
 Theresa May is now pushing ahead with Brexit after clinging on to power
by forming a minority government with support from Northern Irish party
the DUP.
 The first phase of ongoing Brexit talks includes the rights of expats in
Europe and EU citizens in the UK as well as the Brexit bill and the issue
of the Irish border.
the impacts of
Brexit : Impact on
Economy
Impact on currency
Impact on Trade
Impact on Society
Impact on ECONOMY
 Affect of brexit on jobs directly or indirectly.
 UK’s small business exports might be affected.
 Impact of Brexit could lead into GDP fluctuation.
 Leaving the EU could lead into lower trade between the

EU and UK generating complications.
Impact on currency
 Investors are worried about the possible economic
impact of a decision to leave the EU.
 The Sterling Pound is falling against all major
currencies.
 It was down by 2% against US Dollar and hit the
lowest since 2009.
 It’s dropped 1.3% lower against the Euro.
Impact on Trade
 Trading freely with the EU allows UK businesses to
grow. Therefore, leaving EU might put all this at risk.
 UK’s small businesses might suffer losses.
 70% of major business expect damage if UK leave the
EU.
 CETA (The Comprehensive Economic and Trade
Agreement) between Canada and EU will also not
benefit UK if Brexit happens.
Impact on Society
 Being in European Union means lower prices for UK
families - because it's cheaper to trade and there’s more
choice. If UK left the EU, the cost of imports could rise by
at least £11 billion (sources: HMRC & WTO) – leaving UK
families out of pocket as prices rise.
 Independent experts estimate the benefits of being in the
EU are worth £3,000 a year to the average UK household -
due to lower prices and more jobs, trade and investment.
This will be all lost if UK leaves the EU.
IMPACT OF
BREXIT ON
INDIA
Impact of Brexit on India
 After Brexit access point for business for Indian
companies will come to an end.
 The export rate of India might decrease after Brexit.
 Indian companies that have exposure to UK may get
temporary hit because of Brexit.
 Government of India(BJP) has allowed 100% FDI in
India, this step can help India to become major global
finance market.
