The U.K. is eyeing a deal with the U.S. to give London-based banks free access to Wall Street, International Trade Secretary Liam Fox said as he predicted Britain’s economy would thrive even without a Brexit deal.

In an interview with Bloomberg, Fox said he wanted to open up commerce with the U.S. "in every sector" including financial services, which he anticipated would form a key part of future trade talks between London and Washington.
