Britain Stronger in Europe donor
Bloomberg was among the largest donors to the official 'remain' campaign group, Britain Stronger in Europe, contributing £250,000. The company, which recently relocated its European headquarters to London, fears that the financial services industry could suffer if voters choose to renounce membership of the European Union in the June 2016 referendum.
