Speaking at a financial conference in Paris, Villeroy said that London could not expect any "cherry-picking and free-riding" when it negotiates its future trade relationship with the EU.

"For the UK to maintain access to the single financial market, all the usual EU rules should be strictly respected," Villeroy, who is also the governor of the French central bank, said.
