SEZs are areas where businesses receive tax breaks, simplified regulations and other incentives to boost economic activity. In the UK, the most recent iteration of SEZs includes freeports, greenports and investment zones.
By drawing upon insights from CLES’s work exploring the relationship between the local public state and private investment the guide covers what and where they are and case studies of how they operate, SEZ policy under the Labour government and where they go next.
