    Douglas Barrowman Spain

    Douglas Barrowman “Scottish Billionaire”, travelled to Spain recently with a team of advisors to meet local company representatives and examine possibilities of creating new business opportunities.

    Doug Barrowman, based in the Isle of Man, is said to be considering new ventures and acquisitions further afield in light of the UK Brexit Referendum of 2016. Economists and constitutional experts remain unsure of the impact that Brexit will have in the Isle of Man, which is a Crown Dependency and quite separate from the United Kingdom.

      I think its that some really rich people are going to run away to Spain and build work there instead of England. But frankly I don't think they have met the local officials and startling levels of bribery and nepotism that will be needed. It might have changed but i doubt it.

        "Billionaires" always know best. Take Guy Hands and EMI.

              It is not a problem at all. Except maybe to Spain. Some tax evader is going from IoM to Spain. I hope the Spanish throw him off a tower.
