Bank jobs are bleeding out of London — and Brexit hasn't even kicked in yet
Despite fears of irrevocable damage, the City of London is unlikely to change substantially once the U.K. leaves the European Union.
The financial services industry has been quietly preparing for Brexit given that it's likely to lose its EU pass porting rights – meaning that it will need extra licenses to serve EU-based customers.
The negotiations between London and Brussels are still ongoing and it is unclear how many employees will have to be moved from London to other European cities. At the moment, the disruption appears to be minimal compared to the overall size of the industry.
But there are clear winners from the exit of some jobs from London with Frankfurt and Dublin the top destinations for institutions that wish to continue working with clients across the EU.
Barclays
The British bank has said it will expand its Irish subsidiary to continue its European trade. The bank hasn't revealed figures of how many new jobs it will need in Dublin as it is still in negotiations with regulators and waiting for more details from Brexit talks.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch
Bank of America has also chosen Dublin as its preferred location to place its European legal entities. "Dublin is the home to more of our employees than any other European city outside of the U.K. We already have a fully licensed and operation Irish-domiciled bank," the bank said in a statement in July.
BofAML will be moving "hundreds" of roles to Dublin, but also to a few other undisclosed EU locations.
Citigroup
Citigroup might create 150 new jobs in different EU locations. The bank said that it will convert its existing subsidiary in Frankfurt into an investment firm. Other capabilities such as private banking will also be enhanced in other cities, such as Amsterdam, Dublin and Paris.
Credit Suisse
The Swiss bank is "currently exploring solutions to various outcomes, including a hard Brexit," a spokeswoman told CNBC. The bank hasn't presented any Brexit strategy as of yet, but as a result of restructuring plans, the UK-based workforce has been reduced over the past few years.
Deutsche Bank
The German lender hasn't specified its Brexit plans but it is set to beef up its Frankfurt basis. In April this year, the bank said that it could move up to 4,000 jobs to Germany - the highest potential bank move, but for now the bank is still assessing the situation.
Goldman Sachs
The investment bank hasn't presented its plans for the post-Brexit world but its management team has given a few indications of what might happen. Richard Gnodde, head of Goldman Sachs Europe told the BBC in late July that the bank has begun moving operation from London to Frankfurt and other European cities. "Client-facing staff will move closer to their clients, be it Milan or Madrid or any other European capital," he said.
At the moment there are 200 bankers based in Frankfurt, which according to Gnodde, could at least double.
HSBC
HSBC's CEO Stuart Gulliver said during the bank's full year results: "We employ 43,000 people in the UK. When they leave the single market, which obviously the Prime Minister has indicated that we will, we will employ 42,000 people in the UK and a thousand jobs will be unlawful to carry out from the U.K. once we've left the single market."
The lender chose Paris because it owns a bank in France that has all the licences.
JP Morgan
JP Morgan is expected to move "hundreds" of employees. It will use Dublin, Frankfurt and Luxembourg as "legal anchors" but it hasn't yet announced details for such moves.
Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS)
The bank has said that it is looking at placing its EU-focused business in Amsterdam.
"Obviously we've got a bank there with the appropriate licenses, we've had a long history in Amsterdam (and) for us at least it is a very logical choice," Ewen Stevenson, RBS chief financial officer told CNBC during the bank's latest results earlier this month.
He added that "probably no more than about 150 people" will be relocated.
Standard Chartered
"We are in the process of submitting an application to an EU subsidiary to be based in Frankfurt, This is not our headquarters, which will very much remain in London," the bank told CNBC.
The British bank is expected to move only a "minimal" amount of jobs.
UBS
Swiss bank UBS is still drafting plans. The bank is assessing Frankfurt, Madrid and Amsterdam as its potential EU locations. It could affect 1000 people but for now that figure is a mere estimate.

BEST QUOTES IN THE WORLD- every student must see - everyone who wants to be success must see - BEST WORDS IN THE WORLD BY BEST PEOPLE - EVERYONE MUST WANT TO READ ONCE
“You will never have this day again so make it count!”
“Set a goal that makes you want to jump out of bed in the morning.”
“I opened two gifts this morning. They were my eyes.”
“Smile at strangers, slow down, say thank you, laugh and give compliments today.”
“Everyday may not be good, but there is something good in every day”
“Focus on the good.”
“Never stop believing in hope because miracles happen every day.”
“If you want to make your dreams come true, the first thing to so is to wake up”
“Life is like a mirror: It’ll smile at you if you smile at it”
Monday is the perfect day to correct last week’s mistakes. Good morning!
It always seems impossible until it's done -Nelson Mandela
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. Nelson Mandela
In life, NO ONE and NOTHING will help you until you start helping YOURSELF.
Every problem might not have a solution right now, but don’t forget that but every solution was once a problem.
It is true that experience is one of life’s best teachers. But if you don’t study you will probably never get any experience in the first place.
In real life, there is no such thing as second place. Either you are a winner, or you’re not.
Listen to your teachers when they tell you WHAT to do. But more importantly, think about it later and ask yourself WHY they told you to do it.
Success might be relative but most things that matter in real life aren’t. A degree is a degree, a job is a job and hard work is hard work – as simple and direct as it can be.
Life is all about CHANCES and OPPORTUNITIES. Never leave anything to CHANCE and never let an OPPORTUNITY get away.
Study like there’s no tomorrow because if you keep putting off your studies for tomorrow, you’ll probably be too late.
Winners from all walks of life have their own strategies and plans but they all have one thing in common – they TRY. Keep trying.
Give up on your frustration but never on your hopes. Give up thinking about your setbacks but never on your goals. Give up worrying about your past but never on your future.
Everyone has a talent and so do you. Let it shine out, is all you have to do.
Don’t feel sad because you are different from others. Every unique skill and talent has the potential to make you a superstar. Embrace your personality and unchain your inner strength. Don’t forget – the one thing that all successful people have in common is that they were different than everyone around them.
Expecting to get a good job without studying hard is like expecting to win a marathon without running it.
Succeeding in life is as simple as being a good student. All you have to do is pay attention, work hard and give it your best shot.
Education is the anchor that holds life together through choppy waters. Study hard.
Failure is only temporary. The only thing that should be permanent is your will to overcome it.
Being a good student is less about the ability to rote and more about the desire to learn.
It’s okay if you don’t know what to do in life as long as you are not doing something you shouldn’t be doing. Staying on one of the right paths is better than veering off to the wrong ones.
You will meet a lot of people in your life who will give you advice and tell you what’s best for you. Listen to them but at the end of the day, do only what your heart tells you to.
Don’t give it YOUR best shot. Give it the best shot ANYONE could have possibly given.
Each and every problem is a skill waiting to be learnt in disguise.
Stop thinking about WHAT WILL HAPPEN and start thinking about WHAT YOU CAN DO.
Being a good student throughout school and college is like preparing yourself for a marathon which will begin after you graduate. Focus on your goals and study hard, because the last thing you want is to tire yourself out before the finish line.
Greatness is simply defined as the ability to believe in yourself and ignoring everyone who says you can’t do it.
Don’t study to earn, study to learn. What you learn today is what you will become tomorrow.
Don’t take SHORTCUTS in life because in the long run they will CUT SHORT your journey.
Think of every single bully who has made fun of you and humiliated you in front of all your friends. Use the image of their faces to motivate yourself to study hard and work harder. Think of how amazing it will be when twenty years down the line, you see them living in a trailer while you cruise past in your Bentley.
You can look for inspirational quotes about success but that won’t do you any good until you try to be an inspiration yourself.
Aiming for the stars? Great, but did you have to build a rocket first.
Time can be your best friend and your worst enemy depending on whether you use it or waste it.
Jobs and bosses will come and go, but your education will always help you to grow.
Life is your journey, Goals are your destination and Hard Work is your set of wheels.
Even a billion starts with ONE – all you need to do is take that ONE step and keep trying again and again until you reach where you want to be.
As a student the most important thing to remember is that Laziness is your worst enemy and Hard Work is your best friend.
Life is less complicated than it seems. Good habits and hard work are all it takes to succeed and win.
You might have hundreds of likes on Facebook but that won’t pay your bills. You might have tens of retweets on Twitter every day but that’s not going to pay your mortgage. You might have heaps of unread messages on WhatsApp but that’s not going to pay for your new car. You might have dozens of likes on Instagram that’s not going to pay for your life. Get a life, start working hard today.
You can use excuses to convince others, but how will you convince yourself?
Everyone makes mistakes. But only those who stand up and look a mistake in the eyes to say I WILL FIX YOU, go on to succeed.
Education is not a safety net. It is the rocket which will propel you towards success. All you have to do is have an aim and work on everything that takes to get a lift-off.
What is success? Everyone seems to think about it quite differently! While some people think that money or fame equals success, there is a lot more to it than that. True success is not about things or status, but is about the kind of person you are and the positive impact you have on the world. Here are some of the many ways that success can be defined:
- Living a life you can be proud of
- Doing your best
- Spending your time with people and activities that are important to you
- Standing up for things that are right even when it’s hard
- Becoming the best version of you.
So what does it take to become successful? Several things!
- A worthwhile goal
- Action, not just talk
- Hard work
- Preparation and practice
- Good habits
- Perseverance
You will notice these keys to success in many of the quotes for students and kids below:

“The level of our success is limited only by our imagination and no act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.” – Aesop quotes
“The expert in anything was once a beginner.” – Helen Hayes
“The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack in will.” – Vince Lombardi

“Preparation is the key to success.” – Alexander Graham Bell

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” – Thomas A. Edison
“There’s no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.” – Unknown
“Success comes in cans; failure in can’ts” – Wilfred Peterson
“There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.” – Colin Powell
“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” – Robert F. Kennedy
Success is a ladder that cannot be climbed with your hands in your pocket.” – Mark Caine
“The dictionary is the only place where success comes before work.” – Mark Twain
“The starting point of all achievement is desire.” – Napoleon Hill
“There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.”
“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” —Gandhi
“Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.” —William Butler Yeats
“Learning is not a spectator sport.” —D. Blocher
“It is wiser to find out than to suppose.” —Mark Twain
“Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.” —B. F. Skinner.
“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.” —Albert Einstein.
“The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as long as we live.”
“The best way to predict your future is to create it.”
“Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.”
“Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
“Be a student as long as you still have something to learn, and this will mean all your life.”
“If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”
“Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.”
“Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
“Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drowned your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.”
“Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.”
“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”
“If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it. If you don’t ask, the answer is always no. If you don’t step forward, you’re always in the same place.”
“Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.”
“There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.”
“All subjects are the same. I memorize notes for a test, spew it, ace it, then forget it. What makes this scary for the future of our country is that I'm in the tip-top percentile on every standardized test. I'm a model student with a very crappy attitude about learning.”
“A parent gives life, but as parent, gives no more. A murderer takes life, but his deed stops there. A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.”
“When the student is ready the teacher will appear. When the student is truly ready... The teacher will Disappear.”
“Teachers can be a living example to their students. Not that teachers should look for students to idealize them. One who is worth idealizing does not care whether others idealize them or not. Everyone needs to see that you not only teach human values but you live them. It is unavoidable sometimes you will be idealized -- it is better for children to have a role model, or goal, because then the worshipful quality in them can dawn.”
“If you know that I am genius
Then know that you made me genius
Everyone don't accept me as genius
Because they aren't genius to belief me as genius”
Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.
Just know, when you truly want success, you'll never give up on it. No matter how bad the situation may get.
I don’t regret the things I've done, I regret the things I didn't do when I had the chance.
Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
Its hard to wait around for something you know might never happen; but its harder to give up when you know its everything you want.
One of the most important keys to Success is having the discipline to do what you know you should do, even when you don't feel like doing it.
Good things come to those who wait… greater things come to those who get off their ass and do anything to make it happen.
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, or worn. It is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace & gratitude.
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
Go where you are celebrated – not tolerated. If they can’t see the real value of you, it’s time for a new start.
Don't be afraid to stand for what you believe in, even if that means standing alone.
The best revenge is massive success.
Forget all the reasons it won’t work and believe the one reason that it will.
I am thankful for all of those who said NO to me. Its because of them I’m doing it myself.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.
Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.
When you say 'It’s hard', it actually means 'I’m not strong enough to fight for it. Stop saying its hard. Think positive!!
Life is like photography. You need the negatives to develop.
Don’t worry about failures, worry about the chances you miss when you don’t even try.
The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow. For every challenge encountered there is opportunity for growth.
Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs.
The only thing that stands between you and your dream is the will to try and the believe that it is actually possible!
Self confidence is the most attractive quality a person can have. how can anyone see how awesome you are if you can’t see it yourself?
We learn something from everyone who passes through our lives. Some lessons are painful, some are painless. But, all are priceless.
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
Nobody ever wrote down a plan to be broke, lazy, or stupid. Those things are what happen when you don’t have a plan.
Three things you cannot recover in life: the WORD after it’s said, the MOMENT after it’s missed and the TIME after it’s gone. Be Careful!
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.
When the past calls, let it go to voice-mail, believe me, it has nothing new to say.
Rule #1 of life. Do what makes YOU happy. ...Walk away from anything or anyone who takes away from your joy. Life is too short to put up with fools.
Love what you have. Need what you want. Accept what you receive. Give what you can. Always remember, what goes around, comes around.
Just remember there is someone out there that is more than happy with less than what you have.
The biggest failure you can have in life is making the mistake of never trying at all.
Life has two rules: #1 Never quit #2 Always remember rule # 1.
No one is going to hand me success. I must go out & get it myself. That’s why I’m here. To dominate. To conquer. Both the world, and myself.

"If I had to say what is the thing that I feel best about, it's being involved in this whole software revolution and what comes out of that, because you can go all over the world and go into schools and see these computers being used and go into hospitals and see them being used, and see how they're tools for sharing information that hopefully leads to more peaceful conditions, and just the great research advances that come out of that."

25 Steve Jobs Quotes That Will Change the Way You Work—in the Best Way Possible
My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.
I’m as proud of many of the things we haven’t done as the things we have done. Innovation is saying no to a thousand things.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.
Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become.
I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what’s next.
Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.
When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.
That’s been one of my mantras—focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex; you have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.
Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles.
Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful...that’s what matters to me.
The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
We’re just enthusiastic about what we do.
You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something—your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.
For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
I'm convinced that about half of what separates successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance.
What is Apple, after all? Apple is about people who think ‘outside the box,’ people who want to use computers to help them change the world, to help them create things that make a difference, and not just to get a job done.
Things don’t have to change the world to be important.
Technology is nothing. What’s important is that you have a faith in people, that they’re basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they’ll do wonderful things with them.
I’ve always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don’t know why. Because they’re harder. They’re much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you’ve completely failed.
Bottom line is, I didn’t return to Apple to make a fortune. I’ve been very lucky in my life and already have one. When I was 25, my net worth was $100 million or so. I decided then that I wasn’t going to let it ruin my life. There’s no way you could ever spend it all, and I don’t view wealth as something that validates my intelligence.
My model for business is The Beatles: They were four guys that kept each others’ negative tendencies in check; they balanced each other. And the total was greater than the sum of the parts.
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
