Commercial Awareness - Latest Stories

[Donzi]

Hey guys,

Hope everyone is doing well.

Unfortunately, with the current situation, I've been quite mentally drained and, therefore, haven't focused much on the commercial world.

I would be grateful if the TCLA community could suggest some commercial articles/stories for me to follow up on.

Best,
Donzi

Hi Donzi,

I wrote a sort of commercial awareness update for this month so far and the past month.

You can read it at https://bamenation.co.uk/2020/06/12/the-month-behind/

It was going to be too long if I tried to cover everything so I just focused on Covid (unemployment, recession, shape of a recovery and GDP contractions) and protectionism (fear of rising economic nationalism and China versus US) and the impact on lawyers.

I will suggest that if you are still feeling a bit behind after this and what @Daniel Boden has suggested...have a look at the daily news briefings so far to catch up. I know FT has First FT and BBC should have something similar too.

Take care,
Leke

It might be useful to get a heads up on what's going with Brexit since it's now coming back as a priority for all the parties involved. It is going to be absolutely awesome to witness how they negotiate virtually. Have a look here which is a guide updated this week on this topic - https://www.euronews.com/2020/06/11/brexit-draft-deal-first-of-many-hurdles-to-a-smooth-exit
