Summary
Analysis of Bank of England data reveals Brexit has cost the UK economy at least 6% in lost growth, based on a decade of data from thousands of British firms. External studies suggest the true economic impact could be even higher, with some estimates averaging 8% when using alternative methodologies. The UK economy had been growing strongly prior to the 2016 vote to leave the European Union.
