Economic Analysis

The International Economics Team in Europe and World Trade directorate provides economic advice on trade policy, trade disputes, European economic reform and globalisation.

The team aims to provide objective analytical work and practical evidence to help policy makers form UK policy on a wide range of issues. In doing so we draw heavily on work conducted by economists in a wide range of institutions and countries.

A significant proportion of our time has been spent in contributing to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) - Doha Development Round of international trade negotiations. We are currently involved in exploring policy options, which will allow further progress in the Round and are seeking to assess what are the developmental implications of those options.

We very much welcome inquiries from economists who would like to discuss our work and their own.

Unfortunately we will not be able to respond for individual requests for help with school/college work.
