Even under a soft Brexit, the study found that Irish people would be €400 per head less well off than prior to Brexit.
France are estimated to be worse off to the sum of €120 per head, and Germany by €115 per head with Brexit being resoundingly bad for the economies of all EU countries.
However, the study shows that incomes in the United States could rise by around €13 billion per year, while China could see a rise of €5 billion annually.
That's because "European value chains are negatively affected by Brexit," said Dr. Dominic Ponattu, one of the study's authors.
"This would make trade within Europe more expensive and trade with the rest of the world could become more attractive."
