Tuesday 2 Apr 2019Policy Report Launch, The University of Warwick, 12th February 2019 at 6:00pm
The Centre for Competitive Advantage in the Global Economy (CAGE) and Social Market Foundation (SMF) launched ‘Which way now? Economic policy after a decade of upheaval’, a new report to help policymakers respond to those challenges, offering evidence-based analysis and expertise on public policy.
Guests joined us for an evening of interesting and lively discussion including presentations from three of the report’s contributors.
This report brings together the insight and research of 25 leading economists to explain the fundamental causes of the Brexit vote, what it tells us about where we need to direct our policy attention, and how the UK can promote inclusive growth and financial stability.
