GWA Events – Rural Seminars and Bank of England Business Update

Rural Seminars –

We held two successful rural seminars in late Autumn 2023, one in Haddington, East Lothian and one at Howick Hall, Northumberland.

We collaborated with Galbraith, Turcan Connell, Womble Bond Dickinson and GSC Grays covering topics such as; making provisions for succession planning outwith the family business, when families fall out – pitfalls for agricultural clients and a focus on subsidies.

Bank of England – Business Update

In February, we welcomed The Bank of England Agent for North East England, Mauricio Armellini to our Berwick upon Tweed Office. He offered an insight into the Bank’s UK and global economy.

Mauricio joined invited clients, Partners and a selection of GWA staff for a business update. He covered the key points from the Monetary Policy Report including the impact of the policy and the outlook for growth in 2024.

Richard Ayre, Partner said, ‘It’s always great to have Mauricio visit us and share his insight and expertise on both the UK and Global economy. We thank Mauricio for spending time with us’.

A further webinar event is scheduled for May with The Bank of England Agent for Scotland, Iain Duff.  E-invites will be sent out closer to the time.
