France will continue discussions with the UK over post-Brexit fishing access for a few days before any retaliatory measures will be taken, European Affairs Minister Clement Beaune told the French senate on Wednesday, according to Reuters.
Market Reaction
Brexit hasnt been the main theme driving FX or GBP markets on Wednesday. Rather it has been European lockdown fears, strong US data and hawkish Fedspeak. GBP/USD continues to trade lower on the day by about 0.3% just under 1.3350 and EUR/GBP continues to trade close to 0.8400.
