Heteronomics

Heteronomics represents a different kind of economics. We believe analysis should delve into the details of what is really going on, rather than using overly simplistic assumptions to quick-sell stories. Independence from myopic institutional pressures allows us to focus on the realities underlying your asset allocation decisions, without the conflicts of the old market structures. Heteronomics targets the themes driving UK asset prices, offering the benefits of depth, independence and ultimately price.

Leaders of the EU27 will discuss Brexit on 20 September. This summit is essential but will not solve all problems and may communicate little concrete progress.
Bullish pressures are most likely to arise from market participants better distinguishing future trade from the withdrawal treaty, in my view.
Rather than throw red meat to rabid dissenters, the details of any significant incremental concessions seem likely to be withheld until the deal concludes.
