Centre for Economic Performance 2020-25

Lead Research Organisation: London School of Economics and Political Science
Department Name: Centre for Economic Performance

Abstract

The Centre for Economic Performance (CEP) studies the determinants of economic performance at the level of the individual, the firm, the community, the city and region, the nation and the global economy. In a technologically turbulent world where the longstanding trend of global integration may be reversing, CEP's research will confront two major economic and social questions: how to improve economic performance and how to share the gains from greater prosperity more effectively. These issues affect us all - at home, at work, in our schools and public services, and in our local communities - as well as being crucial for businesses and governments, locally, nationally and internationally.

How can economic performance be improved without worsening inequality? It is vital to study the key drivers of both, including technology, skills, institutions, globalisation and policy. To do this we have put together an ambitious research agenda of inter-related projects across six work programmes (growth, trade, education, labour, urban and community wellbeing). We want our research on these critical questions to be world class, published in the best academic journals and to have wide-ranging impact.

We view part of our leadership role as an Institute to be setting the framework for thought and for our work to define what further research is needed to respond to social and economic shocks. The new Institute work programme will help to address the big issues facing the UK, including austerity, the legacy of the financial crisis and Brexit. It will tackle key economic and social issues by providing robust evidence and policy advice on questions such as: the impact of artificial intelligence and robotics on workers and firms; trade policy design in a post-Brexit UK; the impact of policing on crime; and the consequences of the rising market power of global firms for competition, innovation and inequality.

Many of the research challenges to be tackled - such as poor economic performance, high and rising inequality, poor basic skills and low social mobility - were issues long before the financial crisis, the new US protectionism and the vote to leave the EU. We plan to further our understanding of the basic economic forces at work, using new methods and data and drawing on the latest social science developments. We need to provide robust evidence on how the economy functions in order to understand dysfunction, and how to craft policies to rectify these problems.

Making an impact is core to our mission. We want to inform public debate in a 'post-truth' world that is increasingly vulnerable to fake news. Effective communication is an integral part of our impact strategy. CEP will continue to use a range of tailored communication and outreach activities. But we recognise that achieving impact requires more than just effective dissemination. We will therefore prioritise activities with more senior leadership aimed at increasing the visibility and impact of our research and events, deepening our policy and media networks, and extending our collaborations and partnerships. As an ESRC Institute, we plan to continue our record of building capacity for the social sciences and offer broad leadership to researchers and non-academics in the study of economic performance and policy in the UK and internationally. Themed workshop series open to early career researchers and others open to the entire academic community working in cognate areas, will be organised jointly with specific partners such as IFS and CAGE with key sessions recorded and made available online. We will also run events with a diversity of users, practitioners and places.

CEP has shown it can deliver world-class research and impact. Core funding from ESRC has played a crucial role in attracting matched co-funding from elsewhere. The new ESRC Institute status provides a great opportunity to build on this record.

Planned Impact

We aim to influence and improve public debate and policy-making at the local, national and international levels. Our target audiences are academics, policy-makers in central (civil servants, MPs) and local government (e.g. local authorities, devolved nations), international organisations, businesses, practitioners (e.g. teachers and health service professionals), think tanks, NGOs, the UK and international media, and the general public.

We will work directly with policy-makers on several projects including with researchers from the OECD, EBRD, Banque de France, Banca d'Italia and the IMF. We also work directly with statistical agencies (e.g. ONS) to help improve their databases and collection efforts and to generate new data sets.

Engagement with businesses often takes the form of partnerships whereby we jointly develop a research agenda, the business offers confidential access to its data or freely donated expertise. Following on from progress in the last proposal, we intend to continue to work directly with business on several projects (e.g. CognitionX and Capital Enterprise for an RCT on adopting new technology).

We will partner with charities and other organisations mostly by co-branding and disseminating work through their organisations, often as a non-technical report.

Effective communication is an integral part of achieving impact. CEP will continue to use a range of tailored communication and outreach activities to achieve our impact objectives.

Our tailored publications will include:
Briefings: Non-technical publications based around policy debates including policy bulletins and non-partisan election analysis on major areas of public interest.
CentrePiece: CEP's magazine, established in 1996 and published three times a year, collects research findings from our work, which Centre members rewrite in non-technical style.
Books & Reports: We will seek to maximise impact by drawing together lines of research in seminal books and reports.

We will produce engaging online content:
Website: Our website is being fully redesigned to be topic based and to enable a range of users to find content appropriate to their expertise by searching content rapidly and instantly accessing all types of output for each topic.
Blogs: We will continue our policy of translating findings into blogposts and distributing these to a range of other blogsites such as Vox EU, UK in a Changing Europe, LSE Business Review which considerably widen the reach of CEP findings.
Twitter: Social media will also play a key role in communicating all our activities.
Graphical content and videos: We will produce graphical content, such as infographics, which evidence suggests are an effective means of communicating our messages to diverse audiences.

We will organise events for multiple audiences:
Public events: To promote its work beyond academia, CEP will continue to run public events, public lectures, debates and conferences and book launches.
30th anniversary events: We will organize a range of activities in autumn 2020 to celebrate the CEP's 30th anniversary and to highlight our new institute status.
Programme weeks: We will encourage all programmes to organise programme weeks - concentrated activity around a conference or other event.
Early careers conferences: We will encourage all programmes to develop 'early careers conferences' organized by, and aimed at, early careers researchers.

Further details on these activities, how they are supported and managed, are provided in the Pathways to Impact attachment.
 
Description The award is still ongoing. We detail some examples below:
CEP has an ambitious agenda to answer how the economy works, and how it can work better in a fair, inclusive and sustainable way. To do this the Centre tackles a wide range of subjects with a focus on informing public policy, covering six broad areas: community wellbeing, education and skills, economic growth, labour markets, trade, and urban economics. CEP researchers investigate topics such as the transition to net zero, the changing workplace, globalisation, immigration, school performance and adult skills, crime, mental health and the disparities between regions. The strength of the Centre is to look at issues from different perspectives.
During this award period, researchers have produced findings on the impact of the covid-19 pandemic, looking at educational and work losses, working from home, firm take-up of new technologies, unemployment scarring, domestic violence, among other issues.
Further research on management practices by Bell, Pedemonte and Van Reenen (JEEA, 2021) studied CEO pay and firm performance. Their analysis suggests that not all of the CEO pay-performance relationship is likely to be rationalized by efficiency considerations.
Valero finds UK GDP would be 4 per cent higher and annual wages around £1,250 higher, if UK business investment had matched the averages of the US, France and Germany.
Findings from labour market research include Manning (JEP, 2021) on a new era of how to study the employment effect of the minimum wage. Empirical analysis by Wadsworth (Ec 2023) finds that the relationship between immigration and native training depends on the skill level of the immigrant, the skill level of trainees, and the sector into which immigration occurs.
We continue to study the impact of Brexit, with findings on the minor economic benefits of trade deals - far from boosting trade, Brexit has left the UK less open to the world, with growth in UK goods exports and imports since 2019 the weakest in the G7, Sampson (AER, 2023) quantifies the contribution of technology gaps to international income inequality.
Costa, Dhingra and Machin looked at worker welfare in the wake of the Brexit vote and currency depreciation finding that, in the modern world of global value chains, it is changes in the cost of intermediate imports that act as a driver of the impact of globalization on worker welfare.
Quantitative urban models are key to spatial economics research, and Redding (JEP, 2023) shows that these models can be used to estimate the strength of agglomeration forces and evaluate the impact of transportation infrastructure improvements on welfare and the spatial distribution of economic activity.
Bell, Costa and Machin (JPE, 2022) asked why does education reduce crime? Looking at US state-level dropout age reforms between 1980 and 2010 which changed the shape of crime-age profiles, generating both a short-term incapacitation effect and a more sustained crime-reducing effect. Kirchmaeir, Langella and Manning investigate how local socio-economic characteristics affect both the number of criminals and the number of crimes (EJ, 2023).
Exploitation Route CEP influences and informs academic thinking and methods, public debate and policy decision-making at local, national and international levels. The direct and indirect beneficiaries include academics, other researchers, policymakers in central government and local government, international organisations, businesses, practitioners, thinktanks, NGOs, the UK and international media, and the general public, who can take forward our findings.

Description The award is still ongoing. See associated Director reports and outputs to date CEP's research has always placed a strong focus on the big questions facing the economy and wider society. It has been able to respond flexibly when these change, often leading public debate. Our work on the impact of Covid-19, for example, was rooted in long-run analysis from its labour market programme; education and skills programme and growth programme, among others. Ongoing analysis about the impact of Brexit is rooted in the years of theoretical analysis previously undertaken in our Trade Programme. The Centre's research also sets agendas rather than merely reacting to policies as they emerge, as the recommendations on the next decade of economic strategy under the Economy 2030 Inquiry demonstrate. A defining quality of the way the Centre operates has been to focus different perspectives on the questions under study so that alternative theories can be tested using different models and data. The Centre has developed new methodologies and expertise, analysed large-scale data using robust research designs, and it has collected data where it does not already exist for researchers to use, as well as plugging gaps in research areas when new data emerge. Our overriding aim is to change the way social scientists and policymakers think about the world and to produce empirical research of sufficient breadth and rigour to help formulate - and evaluate - new policies. CEP continues to influence thinking and policies of almost every government department, the Bank of England, statistical agencies in the UK and abroad, and a wide range of other policy organisations and practitioner groups.

Description Giving evidence to the Treasury Committee: Regional imbalances Simon French, Managing Director and Head of Research, Panmure Gordon; said: In terms of the evidence we have thus far on the productivity impact of remote working, an interesting paper came out in the last few days by Nicholas Bloom from Stanford University, who is probably leading the analysis of the productivity impact. That paper finds that flexible working has a neutral impact except in the situation where it is an entirely flexible remote operation. Those intangible things with which we are all familiar, the slightly cliché water cooler moments, have an economic cost and seem to be picked up in the data for businesses and workers who have embraced entirely remote working.

Impact BREXIT The Economy 2030 Big Brexit report authored by Swati Dhingra, Emily Fry, Sophie Hale and Ningyuan Jia made cross-party impact in parliament on its release on 22 June 2022. The report analyses the impact of Brexit on the current state of the UK economy. Lord Frost (former Chief negotiator for the European Taskforce) and Jacob Rees-Mogg MP (Con, Minister for Brexit Opportunities) were asked for their response to the analysis. Lord Frost admitted that "it is reasonable to assess the figures as plausibly showing that our goods exports are around 5% lower than what they would otherwise have been, but that the performance is continuing to improve, and this figure may well change further as the figures normalise". The report also made an impact on Twitter, with Baroness Ludford (Lib Dem) and Gordon MacDonald MSP (Edinburgh Pentlands) supporting the research. It was picked up by the SNP in a press release where Drew Hendry MP (Inverness) said that "the impact of Brexit proved Scotland would be better joining the ranks of the many small independent neighbouring countries continuously outperforming the UK on wealth, happiness and fairness metrics.". The SNP used the analysis to support their motivations for a second independence referendum. Leader of the SNP in Westminster Ian Blackford (Ross, Skye and Lochaber) used the research to support his rebuttals to Boris Johnson in PMQs, stating the PM's remarks on inflation were "not true". He quoted the Economy 2030 report, saying "this morning's report from the Resolution Foundation and LSE is the latest in a string of devastating reports on the outlook for the UK economy. The report could not be clearer." Sinn Fein also published an article quoting the research, with East Derry MLA Caoimhe Archibald writing that "This latest analysis highlights once again that Brexit is a disaster economically. It is also further evidence that the protocol is protecting the north from the worst excesses of the hard Brexit delivered by the Tories and the DUP.". Plaid Cymru Welsh Assembly member Luke Fletcher launched a call for Wales to rejoin the Single Market on 6 July 2022. His speech, which can be viewed here, highlighted the economic impact leaving the EU has had so far, as detailed in the joint report from CEP and the Resolution Foundation. The speech was met with fierce opposition from other Assembly members and was followed by intense debate on the issue of Brexit and the reality of rejoining the EU. And in August a motion on Brexit's impact on inflation was made to the Scottish Parliament by Christine Grahame of the SNP, which mentioned the report. (August 2022) Patricia Gibson MP tables Early Day Motion on the impact of Brexit on UK Prosperity (5 Sept 2022). The Scottish National Party MP for North Ayrshire and Arran noted the CEP and Resolution Foundation report on how Brexit has reduced how open and competitive Britain is, leading to reduced productivity and wages over the next decade.
 
Description The Economy 2030 inquiry has been mentioned in a House of Lords library report on Economic growth, inflation and productivity which explained that the inquiry's interim report Stagnation Nation: "highlighted the UK's weak investment record compared with other advanced economies (such as the US, France and Germany) which have higher productivity. For example, it suggested that 'persistent low investment means virtually all of the productivity gap with France is explained by French workers having more capital to work with'."

Description The Government White Paper (Skills for Jobs) published in January 2021 will implement specific recommendations from research on the earnings returns to apprenticeships(Cavaglia, McNally, Ventura, 2020).

(Augar Review. May 2019 Recommendation 5.2). Also the Education group's work about post-18 education and earnings differentials, "Post-18 Education: Who is Taking Different Routes and How Much do they Earn?" (Espinoza et al. 2020) is quoted in the White Paper 'Skills for Jobs' and is used to explain the rationale for the policy to expand provision of higher technical qualifications. (Jan 2021)

These changes are compounded by declines in general psychiatric health among the young. In addition, school-age children and teens from the least affluent backgrounds are also more likely to have seen a parent lose employment since March 2020. The findings highlight the need for policies that are targeted towards the young and particularly towards policies that encourage social mobility and prevent the strengthening of the already strong link between ones' economic origin and destination.

Research findings include that public sector relocation had no significant effect on total local employment. However, it was estimated a local multiplier of 1 on the sector directly affected and they showed that the relocation had an impact on the local sectoral and firm composition.

Lambert and Van Reenen, together with the Alliance for Full Employment, led by former PM Gordon Brown, reported in January 2021 that a major wave of bankruptcies for UK firms loomed as many current business support programmes were due to expire at the end of March and April. They found almost 15 per cent - more than one in seven - UK businesses were at great risk of imminent closure. "Micro" businesses - those with fewer than 10 employees - were particularly vulnerable. Without further government support measures business closures could be well over three times higher by the end of the first quarter of 2021 than the first quarter of 2019, the report concluded.

Results and Impact Business time Kozler, Oliveira-Cunha, Shah, Thwaites and Valero ask, How ready are private sector firms for a decade of major change? What form should policy towards business take within a new economic strategy for the UK? Private sector productivity is the key driver of longer-term improvements in living standards. UK performance in this regard is dire in two respects - levels and growth. These are a pervasive feature of the UK, present in most sectors of the economy. The gap between the best and worst firms is huge, but this problem is not especially bad in the UK when compared to other countries, nor getting any worse overall. Nor do UK firms appear to have suffered the same loss of dynamism as in other countries. Where they stand out, though, is in their low levels of investment and mediocre management. Increasing investment is necessary but must be wisely targeted, and will necessitate postponing consumption or increasing net imports.

Results and Impact The CEP Insights series outlines the key contributions of CEP research in areas of economics, eg: immigration, productivity and Brexit. By 10 March 2022, seven of the planned 12 articles had been published online, with three accompanying videos. The series includes pieces written by world-leading economists and are in language suitable for A-level students.
The Green Growth Insight was included in the Autumn 2021 edition of the centre's CentrePiece magazine, which had an environmental theme to coincide with the COP-26 summit in Glasgow. We also created a new Green Growth hub on the CEP website to cater for growing interest in the topic.
The Royal Economics' Society's Discover Economics campaign, which promotes economics to under-represented groups, included the Green Growth article in its newsletter. We hope to strengthen our partnership with Discover Economics in the coming year.

Results and Impact The workshop on Alternative Work Arrangements is taking place on 27 October 2020, organised by the Department of Economics at Oxford University and the LSE Centre for Economic Performance.

Flexible, "non-standard" work arrangements are increasing in both prevalence and policy relevance throughout developed economies. At the workshop, we will share new findings on the characteristics, constraints and preferences of gig-economy workers, the self-employed and others in non-standard work. We will also give international perspectives on the changing composition of jobs and how to evaluate the 'alternative work' economy.

The workshop's keynote lecture will be given by Dmitri Koustas (University of Chicago) and will be followed by a policy panel with participants from the TUC, OECD and BEIS.

Results and Impact COVID-ANALYSIS UPDATE: Covid-19 and the self-employed - A two year update Robert Blackburn, Stephen Machin and Maria Ventura provide in the fifth LSE-CEP survey of the self-employed of May 2022 an up to date picture of how Covid-19 and its aftermath keep affecting the self-employed. The findings show that, although working on average a little more, incomes and profits of these workers have not recovered from the hit of the pandemic. In fact, they are now suffering from the new pressure of the rising costs of energy, which has become a matter of main concern for the growth of small and medium businesses. Overall, the results suggests that the already slow recovery of the self-employed from the effects of Covid-19 is in jeopardy because of new challenges.
