I hope it may be possible to have a non-political discussion!
With the polls now making a yes vote a distinct possibility/maybe even a probability, it is fair to say that the level of uncertainty for the short to mid-term is now very high. I have to admit to having done nothing yet as a business director to mitigate the risks that such uncertainty presents.
I'd be interested in suggestions for putting the shareholders and employees of the business before personal politics. What steps should I take to mitigate the risks?
e.g. should I move money out of RBS? Should I move it out of Stirling? Would there be any benefit in establishing a nominal presence south of the border before the vote? What sort of things are in the contingency plans of larger businesses who are saying they've made contingency plans?
