I know next to nothing about politics and even less about economics, but (extremely broadly speaking) I'd expect you to pursue closer ties with the US (
cough acting like the 51st state
cough) and using the power of London to keep trade flowing. It doesn't seem like leaving the EU will have catastrophic consequenses economically, at least not long term. Afaik the projections of businesses leaving the City in droves haven't been born out, so its power relative to the like of Frankfurt won't decrease as substantially as one might have feared.
I also don't think the second Scottish referendum will see them leave, though I'm not particularly well informed on that either.
The rest follows - if you've got money that's not generated by digging up raw resources from the earth, you tend to do ok. Wether Brexit solves the issues voters who voted for it wanted it to solve remains to be seen. I'm not 100% sure how many of those had to do with the EU and how many were down to your own governments.
Besides - you're British. You've had it so unbelievably good for so unbelievably long, it's hard to imagine you not doing well.
You're a bit like the Manchester United of countries.
For me personally it's a bit of a bummer as it'll be harder to visit the isles, but hey-ho - plenty of other ex-empires whose cultures and history I've seen nothing of yet.
