The UK has always had a lot going for it, and the City of London has been the banking capital of the world long before the EU. With them leaving the EU they will become more competitive even if only by having to compete a bit more.
The Germans and the French cannot provide the same regulatory framework as is provided by the city.
I’m surprised their isn’t more discussion about the German domination of the EU. The current structure is not sustainable, and Britain leaving will make that more evident quickly. I would not be surprised if the Dutch are waiting to see where Britain leeds before jumping ship themselves.
Abrahamic Religions arrived perhaps too recently. The records we have of ancient civilizations show that they successfully dominated their environments

The Internal politics of most reasonable sized corporates are Byzantine to say the least. Senior management might not have the political capital to drive change through an organization, don’t want to take the blame if the change does not work, or just want to signal that they are doing something, without taking responsibility for said something.
Hence...management consultants... and the pricier and the more prestigious he better.
