Australia and the UK poised for stronger economic partnership through shared culture and financial investments.

In Short:
– Australia and the UK have strong trade ties, with £5.6 billion in annual trade and significant investments.
– Belinda Coates advocates for collaboration, highlighting mutual learning opportunities in business practices.

Australia and the UK share strong economic and cultural ties, with £5.6 billion in annual trade and significant investments in British assets from Australian superannuation funds.

The first episode of “The Connector” features Belinda Coates, founder of Harper B, discussing the potential for collaboration between the two nations. Coates highlights how Australians and Brits can learn from each other, especially in business practices, given their similar legal and regulatory frameworks.

Historically, ties weakened when the UK joined the EU. However, London remains an attractive hub for Australian businesses due to its robust investment environment. Australia boasts nearly $4 trillion in superannuation, prompting many funds to diversify into overseas markets, including property in the UK.
