Global Economic Outlook - August 2017
Česká národní banka
The August issue of Global Economic Outlook presents the regular monthly overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue, we continue our summer mini-series on the economic impacts of Brexit on the United Kingdom. In the July issue, we focused on the short-term effects, whereas this issue summarises the conclusions of the most important studies analysing Brexit from the longer-term perspective. These studies concur that the UK economy will lose out by leaving the EU, a prediction that is gradually being confirmed by actual economic developments. However, it is still difficult to estimate the real extent of the economic impacts of Brexit, as it will depend primarily on the terms negotiated between the UK and the EU. In our analysis, we therefore present the main possible scenarios quantifying how much the UK will pay for Brexit in terms of loss of GDP.

Eeconomic consequences of Brexit
Sinkovskaya, Kristina ; Müller, Karel (advisor) ; Bobková, Eva (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the following issues: Which member states of the EU are the most connected to the UK economy, how leaving the EU will affect the UK economic situation, how actually strong the relations between the EU and the UK are and to what extent the UK departure from the EU will affect both sides. Since this is a very extensive topic and to date, there are hundreds of opinions, researches and prognoses on how Brexit will influence economy and political and social life at both supranational and national level, I have narrowed down my thesis to assessment of the following indicators: business, investments, budget, institutional representation and post-Brexit fate of EU and UK citizens. The thesis is divided in four chapters. The first chapter represents the historical development of the UK relationships with the EU and the second chapter explains the circumstances of a member state leaving the EU. Chapters three and four include the models of the UK economic relationships and economic development of the EU, EU member states and the UK until Brexit. Economic and political news articles, statistical data and analytical works of leading experts in this field were used in the thesis.
