The Centre for Economics and Business Research is an economic think tank and forecaster based in London, United Kingdom^[1]

CEBR was founded by economist Douglas MacWilliams, current Executive Chairman and former Chief Executive, who was appointed Gresham Professor of Commerce in 2012 ^[2] ^[3]. The current Chief Executive is Graham Brough^[3]

Douglas is one of the world’s leading economists and was chosen in 2012 from over 300 applicants to become the Gresham Professor of Commerce.

His Gresham lecture series ‘The world’s greatest ever economic event’ looking at the impact of globalisation on the Western economies has attracted widespread attention and large audiences. He covers all aspects of economics but is best known for his work in forecasting, the economics of the IT and telecoms sectors and transport economics and for his knowledge of the Far East economies. He works with clients who are particularly looking for an economist with a public presence to help make their case.

After setting up Cebr, he was our Chief Executive for 20 years. Previously he was Chief Economic Adviser to the Confederation of British Industry and Chief Economist for IBM UK. Douglas is famed for his communications skills and is one of the most widely quoted economists.
