Implications of US Trade Policy Changes on Northern Ireland’s Economy and Trade
Date published:
The Department for the Economy commissioned analysis from the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) and the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR), to assess the potential impact of recent US tariff changes on Northern Ireland's economy. ESRI also produced a complementary paper examining the implications of US trade policy changes for Northern Ireland’s trade performance. Together, these studies help policymakers and businesses understand Northern Ireland’s exposure to changing global trading conditions and potential trade-related risks.
The Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) and the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) have published the paper The Macroeconomic Impact of Tariffs on Northern Ireland. The research examines the potential macroeconomic effects of US tariffs on Northern Ireland, including impacts on economic growth, trade, employment, inflation and consumer spending. It assesses a range of tariff scenarios and compares the estimated impacts on Northern Ireland with those for the UK, Ireland and the EU. The full report can be accessed using the link below.
