A new report from the Chartered Institute of Export & International Trade and Independent Economics making recommendations for effective, long-term UK-EU partnership.
The year 2026 will mark a decade since the UK public voted to leave the EU. It will also mark five years having passed since the post-Brexit trade deal – the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) – entered into force.
Under the terms of the TCA, this five-year point will see both sides come together to review its future implementation. This review comes at a significant moment, with global trade becoming increasingly volatile in the decade since the Brexit referendum.
This report outlines why this moment is so significant for the long-term UK-EU relationship, offering both strategic and practical recommendations on how to make the most of the 2026 review.
The recommendations include reforming rules of origin, streamlining customs and border processes and deepening regulatory cooperation.
The report was produced in partnership with Independent Economics - a niche, independent international economics advisory based in the City of London.
