  5. Corbynomics: the story so far - Before the election, many in business worried about Labour's economic policies. Under Jeremy Corbyn, they will have a lot more to worry about, David Smith writes. 
  6. The regime TAAR for loan relationships - William Watson (Slaughter and May) considers whether the forthcoming regime TAAR for loan relationships will be less problematic than what currently exists. 
  7.
