UK-based banks need to move quickly to keep EU access

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - British-based banks looking to keep their access to the European Union markets need to move quickly, regardless of the outcome of exit negotiations, European Central Bank supervisor Daniele Nouy said on Tuesday.

"The clock is ticking, and the affected banks have to move quickly," Nouy told a conference in Frankfurt. "They have to move quickly even though the final outcome of the negotiations is still uncertain."
