Abstract:

A Brexit will have a relatively severe effect on the economy of the Netherlands, because the Dutch economy is more connected to the economy of the United Kingdom (UK) via trade than to that of the European Union (EU) as a whole. By 2030, the costs for the Netherlands could run up to 1.2% of GDP, or 10 billion euros. And, if we also assume innovation is trade-induced as recent examples in the literature have shown, then the Brexit-related costs of 10 billion euros could increase with another 65%.
