Open Europe's Pieter Cleppe outlines the arrangements planned by the EU27 to prepare for a possible 'No Deal' Brexit scenario.
      
    
    
      
	While the impact of a badly handled ‘No Deal’ Brexit would have a greater proportional effect on the UK, the EU also has much to lose from ‘No Deal’, and certain member states, such as Ireland in particular, could be heavily exposed in a ‘No Deal’ scenario.

It must be said that it is not always clear to what extent these measures are being taken to prepare for a ‘No Deal’ or negotiated Brexit, as many are likely to be required under either scenario.
	What is clear is that some member states are far more prepared than others and some appear more flexible than others.
