Potential economic impacts of Brexit

The UK is now feeling the short-term ramifications of the Brexit vote and there is now uncertainty around when and how Article 50 will be triggered. Economists expect this uncertainty to dampen growth in the short term. The UK’s longer-term prospects depend heavily on the nature of the trade deals the UK will strike with the EU and the rest of the world. Nevertheless, the consensus is that the potential economic losses will ultimately outweigh any economic gains.

In this note, we summarise recent developments and the potential future impacts of Brexit.
