Depending on the extent of trade policy isolation, the UK\u2019s real gross domestic product (GDP) per capita would be between 0.6 and 3.0 percent lower in the year 2030 than if the country remained in the EU.<\/p>\n<p>If we take into account the dynamic effects that economic integration has on investment and innovation behavior, the GDP losses could rise to 14 percent.
