Based on historical experiences, what economic opportunities might the Commonwealth of Nations offer a post-Brexit Britain?

In a week in which Commonwealth leaders meet the Commonwealth Trade Conference, historians, policy makers and other experts meet to consider the potential of Commonwealth economic relations in historical perspective.
