GUEST LECTURE - WETHERALL`s Financial Planning - TUES 24th OCT 1 - 2pm / 2 - 3pm 5.03 BS, with James Wetherall
Financial Planning is a profession with a lot to offer ambitious young graduates; intellectual challenge, structured career development, high earnings potential and the chance to make a real difference to people’s lives. However, it is in industry facing a significant challenge, one of an aging demographic. Despite a growing number of young people beginning to enter the profession, the average industry professional is now in their mid-fifties.
This means that in the next ten years a significant number of advisers will be retiring, creating an exciting opportunity for younger financial planners as their skills become highly sought after.
Despite the fantastic opportunities available to new entrants to the sector, it still remains a relatively unknown career path to graduates.
This lecture will tell you more about why you might want to consider Financial Planning as a career, what it can offer you and why it currently represents a once in a lifetime career opportunity.
SEMINAR Contemporary Issues in Economics & Policy - Tues 7th Nov from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. in G35
A Seminar Series hosted by Manchester Metropolitan University and Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs
Making Sense of
Brexit: The Political and Policy Implications for the UK’s Devolved
Administrations
For the first time in the history of the European Union (EU)
a member state has voted to leave the Union. The UK has often been coined ‘an
awkward partner’ a catch-all term to encompass the UK’s troubled relationship
with the European integration process. The recent vote to Leave the EU only
reiterates the UK’s ambivalence towards its place in the wider European family.
Analysis of electoral data from the EU referendum on 23rd June 2016
has highlighted that the UK electorate is inherently fragmented on a range of
political and policy issues.
The referendum vote for Remain in Scotland and Northern
Ireland and the Leave vote in Wales has attracted much attention to the
devolved administrations, the Brexit negotiations and the impact Brexit will
have on the UK’s regions. The politics and policies of the devolved
administrations vary significantly and thus identifying the impact of Brexit at
the regional level is highly significant.
By examining the regional variation in the UK on the
salience of EU membership, the political and policy implications of Brexit for
the devolved administrations and the role the devolved governments of Scotland,
Wales and Northern Ireland will play during the negotiation process of the UK
exiting the EU, Dr Kathryn Simpson of Manchester Metropolitan University
will aim to make sense of Brexit and discuss the future of devolution in the UK
in a post-Brexit environment.
This seminar, including time for subsequent questions, will
take place
