Brexit Impact: UK GDP Forecasted to Drop 6-8% by 2025

The Brexit referendum that took place on June 23, 2016, resulted in a 52% to 48% vote to leave the EU, leading to significant economic changes. By 2025, Brexit is expected to reduce the U.K.'s GDP by 6-8%, as estimated by Stanford professor Nicholas Bloom. Since the vote, the value of the pound has remained approximately 10% below its June 2016 levels, with GBP/EUR averaging €1.16 post-referendum. Additionally, EU net migration turned negative in 2022, indicating changing immigration patterns since the U.K. exited the EU.
