France woos post-Brexit UK executives

Four thousand British executives have received a love letter from Paris.

The letter, written by the head of the Paris regional government to officials of companies of all sizes a day after the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union on June 23, extols the business advantages of the French capital. Listing everything from location and infrastructure to a well-trained workforce and world-class services, it makes a case for them to move operations and jobs to the region.

"The Paris region offers an unparalleled quality of life" with its hospitals, schools and cultural offerings among its strong points, Valerie Pecresse, the head of the regional government, wrote in the letter.
