Keywords:

The aim of the paper is to study Brexit impact on economic growth of the UK and EU focusing on its monetary component. The results show, that Brexit will hurt the UK economy much more than economy of European Union. The UK monetary authorities keep monetary policy unchanged waiting for the decision on the Brexit final scenario, while European Central Bank continues its quantitative easing programme, that has already brought gains for European economy.References
