International Trade
British business has always looked overseas for opportunity, and foreign trade is vital to the UK economy. The UK is the world’s sixth largest exporter of goods and services; business which is worth around £200 billion every year, equating to 17% of the country’s total GDP. In terms of investment, the UK is second only to the USA as the world’s largest investor in overseas markets.
The enlargement of the European Union provides marketing and sales opportunities too good to miss - including unrestricted access to more than 450 million consumers – and rapidly growing and emerging markets such as India, China, Brazil and the Middle East represent astounding global prospects.
