BERLIN (Reuters) - A large majority of German companies expect Britain's divorce from the European Union to have little to no effect on their business, according to a poll published by the Cologne Institute for Economic Research (IW) on Monday.

More than 90 percent of the 2,900 companies surveyed either said they expected no damage at all or very little harm, the survey entitled "Brexit, so what?" found.

Only two to three percent said they expected Brexit to have a major impact on their investments and workforce.
