UK losing top position as job and education destination after Brexit

Only 13 percent of Polish students in the UK is not afraid of post-Brexit changes. Most of them fear a rise in tuition fees, difficulties in obtaining financial loans and scholarships or a growing polonophobic mood, a survey conducted by the Boston Consulting Group reports. Nearly half of those interviewed declared a will to leave the UK right after graduation, a strong increase since last year. The same attitude can be found among Polish professionals, especially those working in the City. According to Nina Hałabuz, head of communication and marketing at BCG, revenues of investment banks may be down by PLN 32 billion in 2016, mostly because of Brexit effects. "The real scale of Brexit effects will be seen over the next couple of years." she added.  Some of the emigrants may consider coming back to their native countries. Nearly a quarter of them are willing to start their own company, a study by BCG shows.
