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.

| 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 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). The findings and conclusions had referenced in the Augar review of post-18 education and fed into its recommendation that 'the government should use data on apprenticeship wages to provide accessible system wide information for learners with a potential interest in apprenticeships.' (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) |

| Results and Impact | "Social mobility in the time of Covid: Assessing the social mobility implications of Covid-19" Andrew Eyles documents how the adverse labour market shock caused by Covid-19 has disproportionately hit the young and, in many cases, hit those from the least-affluent backgrounds the most. 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.

The scale of the problem and what can be done 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.

Led by Stephen Machin (LSE CEP) and Abi Adams (Oxford), researchers have been looking at characteristics, constraints and preferences of gig-economy workers, the self-employed and others in flexible, "non-standard" work; the US perspective on the changing composition of jobs; and how to evaluate the 'alternative work' economy. The keynote lecture was given by Dmitri Koustas (University of Chicago) and was followed by a policy panel with speakers from the TUC, OECD and BEIS. |

Again, in March 2022, the two most-read blogs on Economics Observatory were How has Covid-19 affected India's economy (Swati Dhingra and Maitreesh Ghatak) and Update: Which firms and industries have been most affected by Covid-19? (Nick Bloom, et al). |

| Results and Impact | Brexit - CEP discussion paper: UK trade in the wake of Brexit Rebecca Freeman, Kalina Manova, Thomas Prayer and Thomas Sampson (26 April 2022); We find no evidence that Brexit reduced the UK's trade with the EU relative to the rest of the world prior to the implementation of the TCA. However, the introduction of the TCA resulted in a major disruption of UK-EU trade.; Meetings: Thomas Sampson and Kalina Manova presented their work on the trade effects of Brexit to civil servants from DIT, HMRC, BEIS and ONS. (26 May 2022); to staff from the CBI (27 May 2022); an official from the European Central Bank (8 June 2022) |

| Results and Impact | Bridging the gap: What would it take to narrow the UK's productivity disparities? Paul Brandily, Mimosa Distefano, Hélène Donnat, Immanuel Feld, Henry G. Overman & Krishan Shah (June 2022); This report uses data on regional productivity and area level characteristics to deepen our understanding of the spatial gaps in productivity across the UK. We study the extent to which these gaps have changed over time and compare them with those of comparable international peers. We use analyse what area level characteristics account for the gaps we see between areas. Finally, we consider what these findings means for a wider economic strategy which attempts to tackle these gaps.; Press Coverage: Levelling up to cost billions more than government thinks, says think tank ; BBC ; 27-Jun-22; Levelling up needs billions more than Government offering, says think tank The Independent 27-Jun-22; Investment in cities needed for levelling up' ; The I paper ; 27-Jun-22; Boost cities to level up UK, think tank says ; Localgov.co.uk ; 27-Jun-22; |

| 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.

| Results and Impact | The findings also formed part of a BBC Panorama documentary about the effect that Covid-19 has had on young people (Oct 2020). Generation COVID and Social Mobility: Evidence and Policy Machin, Elliot-Major and Eyles are looking at the impact that Covid-19 has had on educational and labour market inequality. Using longitudinal data, and primary survey data they have tracked educational and labour market inequalities that have emerged since the closure of schools in March and the national lockdown in April 2020. Their main findings are that the young - those aged under 25 - have suffered job loss at a much greater rate than older cohorts. They also highlight that the unemployment rate paints an overly optimistic picture of the aggregate labour market. Many individuals have lost earnings, and suffered spells of not-working, despite being employed. Alongside the labour market, they have used available data to measure the extent of learning losses during the first bout of school closures in March and in the first term of the 2020/21 school year. They find significant losses to learning hours due to school closures. For some pupils, particular those at private schools and, to a lesser extent, affluent state school pupils, they find that the lack of face-to-face instruction has been largely offset by online learning. They also show that, despite schools re-opening in September 2020, schools are still not operating at capacity leading to learning losses extended into the current school year. Their findings add to a growing literature that documents how labour markets and the educational sector have been impacted by Covid. They add to this literature by focusing on the young and highlighting the social mobility implications of labour market and learning losses. By bringing together estimates from the literature on unemployment scarring, returns to education, the impact of schooling hours on final educational attainment, and combining these with a simple theoretical model, they argue that relative social mobility - measured by the relationship between parent and child income - is likely to decrease going forwards.

| Results and Impact | Generation COVID and Social Mobility: Evidence and Policy Machin, Elliot-Major and Eyles are looking at the impact that Covid-19 has had on educational and labour market inequality. Using longitudinal data, and primary survey data they have tracked educational and labour market inequalities that have emerged since the closure of schools in March and the national lockdown in April 2020. Their main findings are that the young - those aged under 25 - have suffered job loss at a much greater rate than older cohorts. They also highlight that the unemployment rate paints an overly optimistic picture of the aggregate labour market. Many individuals have lost earnings, and suffered spells of not-working, despite being employed. Alongside the labour market, they have used available data to measure the extent of learning losses during the first bout of school closures in March and in the first term of the 2020/21 school year. They find significant losses to learning hours due to school closures. For some pupils, particular those at private schools and, to a lesser extent, affluent state school pupils, they find that the lack of face-to-face instruction has been largely offset by online learning. They also show that, despite schools re-opening in September 2020, schools are still not operating at capacity leading to learning losses extended into the current school year. Their findings add to a growing literature that documents how labour markets and the educational sector have been impacted by Covid. They add to this literature by focusing on the young and highlighting the social mobility implications of labour market and learning losses. By bringing together estimates from the literature on unemployment scarring, returns to education, the impact of schooling hours on final educational attainment, and combining these with a simple theoretical model, they argue that relative social mobility - measured by the relationship between parent and child income - is likely to decrease going forwards. To make their work as relevant as possible to the ongoing policy debate surrounding the appropriate response to the pandemic, they have conducted an information experiment that elicits opinions on the extent of social mobility and how these opinions are affected by information about the labour market and educational inequality. They also surveyed individuals about their support for policies that may be used to prevent long term labour market and education scarring. They will now extend this work by expanding the analysis to develop a fuller, more detailed picture of nationwide social mobility and inequality under the crisis, looking at issues of pressing national concern for the general public, policymakers and practitioners: including, job losses for working age adults and learning losses in full-time education and school.

| Results and Impact | Covid-19 school shutdowns: What will they do to our children's education? Eyles, Gibbons and Montebruno presented evidence from unexpected temporary school closures and reduced instruction time that has previously suggested school closures will reduce educational achievement, both in the short and long term. Children from disadvantaged backgrounds are likely to be affected more than others by school closures, with fewer family resources and less access to online learning resources to offset lost instruction time. In England, the total cost of the resources lost in each week of state school closure is more than £1 billion. Educational deficits from time lost to school shutdowns can be made up with additional hours of teaching when schools reopen, though schools might need to put back more hours than were lost and it may not be feasible to do this within the traditional school year. Compensating lost instruction time through additional resources, without additional hours, is likely to be even more expensive.

| Results and Impact | Education Inequalities; Christine Farquharson, Sandra McNally and Imran Tahir (16 Aug 2022) Education is one of the most important predictors of people's life chances. Better-educated people are more likely to be in work and tend to earn more, and the influence of education does not stop there. Education shapes a range of other outcomes, including health, wealth and even happiness. Explaining differences in education is therefore essential to understanding lifetime inequalities. In this chapter, we draw on an extensive body of evidence to further our understanding of education inequalities in today's world. The focus of our chapter is education inequalities in the United Kingdom (UK), and predominantly in England. But the lessons we draw will carry implications for settings across the world. Press coverage Educational disadvantage gap virtually unchanged in 20 years, says report Professor Sandra McNally, director of the Centre for Vocational Education Research at the LSE and a co-author of the report, said: "The options for young people who do not earn good GCSEs at age 16 are limited, confusing and often not very lucrative.", Independent (16 Aug 2022) ; Educational disadvantage gap virtually unchanged in 20 years, says report, Ealing Times (16 Aug 2022); Top ten university degrees that lead to higher salaries ; "Most strikingly, on average women benefit financially from attending university irrespective of the course they study," said the report authors Christine Farquharson, Sandra McNally and Imran Tahir.

| Results and Impact | Firms and inequalities De Loecker, Obermeier and Van Reenen say that we have seen a long period of stagnation in productivity and wages within most firms while a minority of high-performers - or 'superstar firms' - have been the main drivers of productivity and wage growth. While inequality between firms is not necessarily a problem, it is concerning if large numbers of workers are in poorly performing, less productive firms and not sharing in improvements in living standards. It is also a concern when the growing dispersion in the performance of companies goes hand in hand with a stalling of overall economic performance, a trend already seen in the US.

| Results and Impact | Growing clean: Identifying and investing in sustainable growth opportunities across the UK This report provides a hard-headed assessment of the opportunities presented to UK plc by the move to net zero, and considers how best these can be unlocked. It does this by considering carefully the UK's pre-existing relative strengths in technologies, goods and services that are relevant for net zero. It also undertakes a series of 'deep dives' into key areas in the UK's decarbonisation journey to investigate the extent of UK strengths that can be built upon to accelerate domestic deployment of related technologies as well as unlock export opportunities. Finally, it assesses how the UK's financial sector can be oriented towards delivering the investment needed for net zero, and for realising related opportunities in the UK.

| Results and Impact | Low pay Britain 2022 Cominetti , Costa, Datta and Odamtten look at how low paid work has changed over the past two decades during the existence of the minimum wage in the UK. Recent increases in the minimum wage have successfully driven down the incidence of low hourly pay to equal the record low last seen in 1975. But we find there has been much less progress elsewhere for low earners. Low pay is widespread among the self-employed, who do not benefit from the minimum wage and whose numbers have increased over the past 20 years. And there are several forms of work insecurity including the risk of job loss, volatility in hours and pay, and not being able to find enough hours which continue to make life difficult for too many low-paid workers but would be considered totally unacceptable for higher paid workers to experience. Having tackled low hourly pay with an ambitious minimum wage, a policy agenda for low-paid workers in the 2020s should seek to address these problems with similarly ambitious action. (25 May 2022) |

| Results and Impact | Management Practices Project was presented to DfE and the Association of Colleges (December 2020 and February 2021). Asking "Do Management Practices Matter in Further Education?" McNally, Schmidt-Rivera and Valero applied the CEP LSE World Management Survey methodology in England's further education sector, with a focus on practices related to their provision for 16-19 year olds. They found that further education colleges are relatively well managed compared to schools and universities, although there is meaningful variation between institutions which is correlated with outcomes. The results suggest that improving management practices has some role to play for improving performance in the sector but do not suggest that current practices are an important source of underperformance. Hector Espinosa is working with the Greater London Authority, leading on several projects related to the Adult Education Budget (which was devolved in 2019). Chiara Cavaglia and Gu Ventura took part in online workshop, organised by DfE and attended by researchers in academic and non-governmental institutions, to share their knowledge and experience of working with LEO data. The workshop received very good feedback and the material will be made available as part of the support to LEO users. (Sept 2020) Gu Ventura briefed DfE policy-analysts on research on the effectiveness of UTCs (October 2020). |

| Results and Impact | Net zero jobs: The impact of the transition to net zero on the UK labour market ; ; The Government's commitment to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 will mean investment, and change, across the economy: from the decarbonisation of buildings and surface transport, to shifts in diet, aviation and industry. These changes will affect the UK public, both as consumers and as workers. This briefing note explores the impact that the net zero transition will have on the UK labour force, by setting out the types of 'green' and 'brown' jobs that are most likely to experience change, analysing core differences in the workers that are employed in these jobs, and in the type of tasks that they typically perform. ; The authors also examine how green and brown jobs have changed over time, and in particular consider the origins of green job workers today, including the share of workers that move from a brown job into a green job, and the key characteristics of those making such a move.

A paper by Philippe Aghion, John Van Reenen and Luigi Zingales finds that companies with a larger share of active owners are more innovative. They find no such link between index ownership and innovation. Other research suggests that indexing makes it more likely that managers will pursue ill-judged mergers.

| Results and Impact | Power plays What do shifts in firm and worker power mean for wages? Firms create value - at least the successful ones do. But who benefits, the firm's owners or workers, and by how much, is often up for grabs. That's why power in our labour market matters. It doesn't just affect the level of wages, but the inequality of those wages too. The power of workers - via unions or a tight labour market - or of employers - via being a town's only hospital - matters. And yet it hardly features in most British policy discussions, despite changing considerably over time, and returning to centre stage in policy debates elsewhere. (7 July 2022) |

| Results and Impact | Inequalities in the 21st Century: the IFS Deaton Review Conference on 24 May - 25 May 2022. Session on Productivity, wages and good jobs with Steve Machin and John Van Reenen. What mix of policies towards firms and labour markets can support widespread improvements in productivity, wages and good jobs? How can we balance and combine the roles of the tax and welfare system, labour market regulation, competition policy and innovation policy to move beyond such an exclusive reliance on minimum wages and broaden opportunities for those in both traditional and non-traditional forms of employment? How can we build an agenda that is robust to future shocks such as those from trade and technology?

It is decisive, because the country must grapple with recovery from Covid-19, the aftermath of Brexit, an ongoing technological revolution and the transition to net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases. Moreover, it does so from a base of stagnant productivity, high inequality, rapid aging and high debt." |

| Results and Impact | Prices and inflation in a pandemic - a micro data approach Davies tracked the impact of the pandemic on prices in close to real time, analysing Office for National Statistics (ONS) data on 36m consumer prices, covering 1988 to 2020. With price volatility at its highest level since 1991, this clearly creates uncertainty for shops and their customers. Typically, just under a fifth of prices change month on month. But during 2020, this rose to 24 per cent - the changes were divided almost equally between price hikes and cuts. The same happened in 2008, but the pandemic has been a stronger shock, reflected in more volatile pricing. Engaging with policymakers: The paper and associated dataset was praised as "a very useful, wonderful resource" by Jonathan Haskel, member of the Monetary Policy Committee. |

"Ideas are getting harder to find," according to a paper published in the American Economic Review in 2020. Applying econometric tools to technologies-in-use such as chipmaking and crop improvements, Nick Bloom of Stanford University and his colleagues found that, over time, more inputs-more researcher time, more money-have been needed to get the same improvement in outputs as before (see chart 3).

| Results and Impact | Real-time impacts of Covid in the UK economy De Lyon and Dhingra, in partnership with CBI, have found that businesses that have escaped the worst effects of the economic fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic are typically in sectors which are more likely to feel the impacts of Brexit. Using real-time business survey of member and non-member firms collected by the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), their research shows that sectors which entail more human contact such as airlines, restaurants, hotels and arts and entertainment have been hardest hit. Meanwhile those sectors that rely more on business-to-business demand, and which can be delivered virtually, have been less hard hit - these sectors include ICT services and professional, technical and scientific industries such as accounting, legal activities and scientific research. They show that sectors affected by Brexit are generally different to those currently impacted by Covid-19. When comparing the effects of Covid19 with the predicted future effect of increased trade barriers with the EU, there is some evidence that those less hit by Covid-19 are likely to be harder hit by Brexit. Electrical and Optical Equipment and Chemicals and Chemical Products are examples of such sectors. Engaging with policymakers: The sectoral impact findings were referred to during the Lord's Debate on the Trade Bill, and during a debate on the taxation (post-transition period) bill. (16 Dec 2020). Press coverage: A blog on the factors affecting businesses ability to prepare for Brexit, which was covered in The Guardian, Yahoo News, Times Radio CNN.

| Results and Impact | The Big Brexit Swati Dhingra, Emily Fry, Sophie Hale and Ningyuan Jia (22 June 2022); This report finds that the expected large relative decline in UK-EU exports haven't occurred and instead Brexit appears to be weighing on both UK openness and competitiveness across both EU and non-EU markets. It will take many years for the economy to fully adjust and this report provides the most detailed assessment to date of the long-run impacts of the final deal agreed with the EU. It finds that the long-run impacts will mean significant change for some sectors of our economy - for example, fishing - but the aggregate effect will be to reduce household incomes as a result of a weaker pound, and lower investment and trade. This adjustment will be substantial, but we should not expect it to fundamentally alter the nature of our economy, including the UK's overall services focus and export specialisation. Understanding the scale and nature of this change, and the extent of progress so far, is crucial for policy makers looking to reset the country's economic strategy. ; Press coverage - carried on local radio stations ; Brexit hitting production and wages, warns Resolution Foundation ; The Times ; 22-Jun-22; Brexit 'dragging down growth and costing hundreds a year in pay' ; The Guardian ; 22-Jun-22; Brexit to keep wages down and make UK poorer in decade ahead, study finds ; The Independent ; 22-Jun-22; Why Brexit could still influence the next election ; The Independent ; 22-Jun-22; Boris Johnson needs to level with the public that Brexit is making the cost of living crisis worse The I news ; 22-Jun-22; Brexit: NI Protocol 'helps lessen impact on NI economy' ; BBC (NI) ; 22-Jun-22; Brexit will leave workers poorer than they would have been and has damaged Britain's competitiveness, new study says Sky News 22-Jun-22; Brexit to cut pay by £470' ; The Daily Mirror ; 22-Jun-22; Leave-backing Londoners voice concern over cost of living ''Brexit BUT at the right time!''

| Results and Impact | The Economist (Online) Economists are revising their views on robots and jobs, Considering that so many doubts about the "robots kill jobs" narrative have arisen, it is not surprising that a different thesis is emerging. In a recent paper Philippe Aghion, Céline Antonin, Simon Bunel and Xavier Jaravel, economists at a range of French and British institutions, put forward a "new view" of robots, saying that "the direct effect of automation may be to increase employment at the firm level, not to reduce it.".Unpublished work by Michael Webb of Stanford University and Daniel Chandler of the London School of Economics examines machine tools in British industry and finds that automation had "a strong positive association with firm survival, and that greater initial automation was associated with increases in employment".

| Results and Impact | The Pandemic and the Housing Market: A British Story Cheshire, Hilber and Schöni reported that ending the support measures which have helped the housing market rise to record levels during the Covid-induced recession could exacerbate a predicted fall in house prices. House prices are expected to fall once support measures, such as the stamp duty holiday, come to an end and the full economic impact of the pandemic starts to be felt. Combined with Brexit, which is expected to affect London more than other regions, this drop could be larger in London and the south east than elsewhere. In the longer term, however, the wider London region's economy is likely to rebound and given the shortage in housing supply, prices will start to rise again strongly. (March 2021) Engaging with policymakers: Paul Cheshire and Christian Hilber took part in "Planning for the Future: critical issues", a special seminar for MHCLG and HMT senior officials in Analysis and Planning Divisions to discuss critical issues in the Aug 2020 White Paper and which elements might have the greatest effect on freeing up housing supply. (10 people under Chatham House rules) (21-Oct-20) ; Christian Hilber briefed the Prime Minister's Implementation Unit on the "Impact of Covid-19 on British housing market and urban form", including Ben Henshall and Philip Peters (23-Nov-20); Cheshire and Hilber publish and disseminate report on reforming property taxes. A high-level workshop to discuss this report together with policy makers and politicians was held on 18 March 2021. |

| Results and Impact | The Self-Employed and COVID-19 Blundell and Machin's work has showed that the self-employed were hit particularly hard in the early stage of the crisis, with three quarters of self-employed workers reporting less work in April 2020 than usual. They followed up this work with a later survey in September 2020, showing that by the summer there had been a partial recovery in working hours and incomes, but that the self-employed were still strongly affected by the crisis. With the country now in its third lockdown, they will run a third round of the survey, complementing ONS data from 2020. Their analysis of labour market flows suggests a large reduction in self-employment. This represents the reversal of a two-decade UK labour market trend of rising self-employment. The latest survey and accompanying output will focus on the underlying causes of this decline, and whether it is likely to reflect a longer-term trend. Engaging with policymakers: Jack Blundell and Stephen Machin presented this research in a number of meetings: with civil servants at the Greater London Assembly (08-Jun-20), who were particularly interested in the work due to the disproportionate number of self-employed workers in the capital; with two economic advisers at HMT (28-Jan-21), including the Economic Adviser working on the Labour Markets and Distributional Analysis team at HMT, who was interested in learning more about the distributional impact of Covid-19. This contributed to the design of the next wave of the LSE-CEP self-employment survey, in part to address the policy questions they asked. The research was referred to in different parliamentary debates on 17 September, 10 November and 26 November 2020. Jack Blundell and Stephen Machin also met with the advisers of the shadow chancellor, Anneliese Dodds, (22-Feb-21) to discuss the implications of our Covid-19 self-employment surveys for policy, in particular whether the level of support is sufficient. In November 2020, she had quoted and tweeted about CEP work on Twitter, using it to argue for more support for the self-employed. The March 2021 budget extended support packages for the self-employed. |

| Results and Impact | The business response to Covid-19: the CEP-CBI survey on technology adoption, Overman, Valero and Riom joined with CBI to conduct a survey of 375 UK businesses in July 2020. They found that the pandemic had caused enormous business disruption, which prompted many firms to focus on innovation. Over 60% of firms reported that they had adopted new technologies or management practices since the onset of the pandemic, while a third had invested in new digital capabilities. Nearly all firms reported that they expected the adoption of new technologies or practices to be permanent and to have a positive impact on firm performance. The survey also elicited SMEs' preferred support packages to inform how policy should respond to encourage firm-level innovation. This plugs a gap on how to promote innovation diffusion in the UK during a crisis. The researchers will carry out a survey one year on (Summer 2021) to understand the persistence of innovation and its impacts on firm performance. Engaging with policymakers: Valero was invited to give oral evidence at the BEIS Select Committee on industrial strategy post-pandemic (24-Sept-20), and a HMT Select Committee on the regional economic impacts of Covid-19 (21-Oct-20). She also presented at a National Infrastructure Commission - Onward event on levelling up which involved politicians, academics and other key stakeholders. CEP organised a workshop that brought together stakeholders from policy, industry, and academia with shared interests in the business response project in November 2020. Valero had further meetings with BEIS (02-Nov-20), HMT (21-Jan-21), Institute for Future of Work/Anna Thomas and Sam Atwell on tech adoption (09-Jul-20); Expert Evidence Forum: 'Informing Development of the UK Place-based R&D (11-Sept-20); a Private Sector Development Research Network, including International Finance Corporation and World Bank Group on technology adoption (10-Dec-20).

| Results and Impact | The business response to Covid-19: the CEP-CBI survey on technology adoption, Overman, Valero and Riom joined with CBI to conduct a survey of 375 UK businesses in July 2020. They found that the pandemic had caused enormous business disruption, which prompted many firms to focus on innovation. Over 60% of firms reported that they had adopted new technologies or management practices since the onset of the pandemic, while a third had invested in new digital capabilities. Nearly all firms reported that they expected the adoption of new technologies or practices to be permanent and to have a positive impact on firm performance. The survey also elicited SMEs' preferred support packages to inform how policy should respond to encourage firm-level innovation. This plugs a gap on how to promote innovation diffusion in the UK during a crisis. The researchers will carry out a survey one year on (Summer 2021) to understand the persistence of innovation and its impacts on firm performance.

| Results and Impact | The carbon crunch Marshall and Valero set out a three-part agenda that will position net zero at the core of the UK's economic model: Wrestling with change. Managing costs fairly. Updating UK economic strategy to reflect the fundamental changes in context. Careful consideration of these will ensure that the coming decade will see both an acceleration in the pace of decarbonisation, as well as the centralisation of net zero into core economic thinking along other major drivers of change, such as Brexit and the recovery from Covid-19.

| Results and Impact | There has been extensive work on the issue of tackling domestic abuse. Two pieces of research have been fed into changes in the law. CEP researchers Tom Kirchmaier and Ria Ivandic, revealed the changes in domestic abuse incidence and reporting under lockdown - and (with Jeffrey Grogger of the University of Chicago) - how machine learning can be used to help police to better respond to calls of domestic abuse. Together with the LSE Public Affairs team, the researchers have been involved in talking to politicians about their work during the summer and autumn of 2020. This included a roundtable to brief Lords on the latest research. Following the roundtable, the LSE team worked with Peers to table amendments to the Domestic Abuse Bill focused on improving the use of data and technology. The amendments were widely supported by Peers during an hour-long debate on 27 January 2021, with Lord Kennedy (Lab) describing one as a "no brainer" and Lord McConnell (Lab) saying that they made "an incredible amount of sense". Peers including Lord Hunt, Baroness Grey-Thompson, the Earl of Lytton, Lord Paddick and Lord Brooke praised the research and paid tribute to LSE. The amendment has been passed at the Lords report stage. During the debate on Amendment 73 to establish a database of domestic abuse perpetrators, Lord Hunt highlighted the research and Baroness Grey-Thompson said, "I thank LSE, which provided incredibly useful information and support on this amendment." The Government lost the vote and the Amendment was passed: we will continue engagement with the Bill when it returns after Easter 2021. |

| Results and Impact | Trading places De Lyon, Dhingra, Hale and Smith outline how trade shapes, and is shaped by, wider changes to the economy, defining the nature of jobs for millions and - most importantly - influences long-term prosperity. Overall, the findings demonstrate that major shifts in the level and nature of openness have big direct impacts on people, places, and firms, but they are also intertwined with the overall economic strategy of the country. The direct effects of Brexit on trade flows and prices have started to emerge, although the impact has been clouded by the effect of Covid-19. But the longer-term impact on the nature of the UK's economy largely remain ahead of us. The current policy and political debate is preoccupied with the individual trade deals that the UK can now pursue. This risks leaving the country without a plan for the major economic change that Brexit is already starting to bring about. (October 2021); Policy: Shadow International Trade Minister comments on report by CEP; Press coverage: "Post-Brexit Trade policy too focused on rushing through agreements - report", Press Association; "Global Britain badly needs to improve its export game", The Sunday Times; and Emily Thornberry response covered in Express and Star (14-Oct-21) |

| Results and Impact | What can previous recessions tell us about the Covid-19 downturn? Bell, Codreanu and Machin design a 'realistic' employment rate measure (based on individuals working a positive number of hours) to compare the labour market effects of the Covid-19 crisis measured as of June 2020 with the three most recent UK recessions: the early 1980s, the early 1990s, and the downturn induced by the global financial crisis in the 2000s. They show a decrease in employment between February and June of more than 15 percentage points, in sharp contrast with stable official unemployment. With hours worked only at 80 percent of the level from February 2020, the picture is bleak - the UK economy is on track to suffer its biggest unemployment shock since at least the 1980s recession. Despite their different impacts across industries, the Covid-19 crisis and the three most recent UK recessions share the common feature of a disproportionate impact on the most vulnerable (the poorest, the youngest, the least educated, and ethnic minorities). Engaging with policymakers: Brian Bell and Stephen Machin held numerous discussions with policy makers about the furlough scheme throughout 2020. |
