Recommendation

Expert consensus has it that Brexit will hurt the United Kingdom’s economy in the near term, and British industries and communities that trade extensively with the European Union will feel the most pain. According to economist Kitty Stewart in this discerning review, the government must step in to aid the regions and sectors expected to experience the worst effects of Brexit. UK residents, whether in the leave or remain contingents, along with policy experts and regulators on both sides of the Channel, will appreciate the insights of this cogent study.

Take-Aways

  • In whatever form it unfolds, Brexit will disrupt the United Kingdom.
  • Regional and sector effects tell different stories, depending on the source.
  • Brexit’s consequences will fall disproportionately on men.
