Generative AI can now perform much of what a university sells — explaining a concept, answering a question, drafting an essay, marking a problem set. Drawing on randomised trials across four countries, adoption surveys and graduate labour-market data, the report separates what AI genuinely substitutes for (content delivery, routine tutoring, first-pass feedback) from what it cannot replace and may strengthen (credible assessment, supervised practice, peer and professional networks) — and sets out the repositioning that follows, alongside the financial and regulatory constraints on it. Includes an evidence table, three institutional scenarios, a human-capital and signalling primer, notes on the evidence and a glossary.
The EU Battery Regulation raised market-access barriers on China's EV and battery exports through carbon-footprint, due-diligence, recycled-content and battery-passport requirements. Using firm-level customs data with a continuous difference-in-differences and event-study design, the report finds a significant early shock that attenuates within months, with better-governed listed firms proving most resilient — alongside sector deep-dives, an outlook with scenarios, methodology, a compliance checklist and a glossary.
Capital and labour taxation, policy stability and macroeconomic outcomes. Using dynamic general-equilibrium analysis with heterogeneous households, the report shows that the credibility and stability of long-term tax plans — not just their level — shape investment, public debt and welfare, with implications for anchoring durable fiscal frameworks. Includes an optimal-tax primer, illustrative policy scenarios, an institutional toolkit and a glossary.
