BREAKING: Canada and U.K. closing in on a trade deal – Bloomberg
Canada and the U.K. are closing in on signing a new trade deal and that the announcement could come as early as Thursday, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
The fresh agreement is likely to replace the existing deal the U.K. has while within the European Union (E.U.) membership.
Earlier this week, the U.K. trade minister Greg Hands said that they are on track to strike a trade deal with Canada by the end of the year.
Market reaction
Markets ignore the optimism around a likely U.K.-Canada trade deal, as the covid and no-deal Brexit fears takeover.
At the time of writing, GBP/USD drops 0.24% to 1.3235 while USD/CAD trades better bid around 1.3090.
