LSE Report on Economic Fallout of COVID-19 and Impact of Brexit

by | 0 comments

The LSE’s Centre for Economic Performance has published a report entitled COVID-19 and Brexit: Real-time updates on business performance in the United Kingdom.  The analysis shows that the sectors that will be affected by Brexit and those that are suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown are generally different from each other. The report’s author argues that rushing Brexit through this year without a new deal in place would broaden the set of sectors that see worsening business conditions. The report is discussed in this article.
