Legal & General will be fine almost whatever the Brexit outcome.
That's the message from Legal & General Chief Executive Nigel Wilson.
The company is one of Brighton and Hove's biggest employers.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said: "Brexit has been the best and worst of times. The best, because we needed to examine our relationship with a centralising, bureaucratic EU. The worst, because that debate has polarised opinion so sharply.
The Prime Minister’s deal can be seen as a glass half-full or half-empty.
There are good points for Brexiteers around borders, immigration and budget contributions, while for Remainers we retain strong links with Europe and have an orderly exit.
A deal was never going to be ideal for anyone and was always going to be a compromise.
As in any debate between strongly opposed views, facts, forecasts and anecdotes have been dragooned into supporting different arguments, or simply ignored; more noise than signal, more heat than light."
