·         Impact of UK departure for the given firm and its business, and the implications this has for the relationship between the client and the firm;

·         Actions the firm is taking such as organisational arrangements to deal with client inquiries;

·         Implications for clients of any corporate restructuring and, in particular, any relevant changes to contractual terms; and

·         Contractual and statutory rights of clients in these circumstances, including the right to cancel the contract and any right of recourse, where applicable.
