I think banks and financial services is a totally different kettle of fish.
there are plenty of well regarded banks, legal and insurance companies in the UK and
it's not surprising Aussie companies would struggle to compete against them as
they have would have no competitive advantage.
The home improvement retail sector is a different matter. from what I hear and
read, it is a dog's breakfast in the UK, poorly run, and the Homebase stores were terrible.
whereas Bunnings have proven themselves to be superb operators here in Australia.
there is a decent chance they can show them how to do it in the UK successfully,
but yes there are risks.
