Results from this study were that the CSE index Denmark, France CAC index, the index HDAX Germany has a significant influence before and after Brexit Britain while Britain's FTSE index had no impact on the stock price index volatility before and after Brexit. This shows that the investment decisions of investors in Denmark, France, and Germany were greatly influenced by the Brexit announcement so that the stock price indexes in these three countries experienced significant movements.
