“As a whole, the weekend’s developments are consistent with our baseline scenario that a political/economic crisis will be necessary to force the UK into an EEA-style + customs agreement transitional agreement.

“In terms of timelines, the EU27 will assess whether the UK has made sufficient progress on the divorce agreement at the 18th October EU Council summit, after which talks could move onto a sketch of a future trade deal and then a transitional deal. Before then, divisions within the Conservative Party over the issues above could come to ahead at the Party Conference in early October. If agreement is not reached by the 18th, the European Council summit on 14th December 2017 could represent a second chance to reach agreement on divorce before year-end.”
