Economy:

The UK is a member of the G8 group of the world's leading industrial nations. Engineering (especially of military products), chemicals, electronics, construction and textiles are the main components of the industrial sector. Among service industries, tourism, media, retail, financial services, telecommunications and computer services are the most important and have undergone rapid growth, while heavy industries and manufacturing have suffered relative decline.

Scotland’s principal industries are financial and business services, renewable energy, food and drink, life sciences, sustainable tourism, universities and the creative industries.

The UK's external economic relations were once dominated by the EU but with the economic rise of the BRIC nations and ongoing financial instability in the Eurozone, exports to the EU fell. in 2015, a referendum on whether the UK should stay in the EU resulted in a narrow majority voting to leave - although many political and business leaders favour membership, but there was opposition in the country at large. The exact terms, and economic implications, of 'Brexit', as the UK's departure has colloquially been termed, are as yet unknown.

On the domestic front, Britain was impacted, along with every other country in Europe, by the financial crisis of 2008. Austerity measures brought in by the coalition government saw the economy stall, with the UK suffering a recession and weak forecasts for growth, although unemployment was kept in check. Banks and big business continue to ensure London remains a financial hub, but much of the public and political will is in favour of reigning in the banks with tougher regulatory measures.

The Welsh economy has taken a battering as the UK has battled to undo the negative economic impact of the recent financial crisis. The traditional manufacturing and mining industries in the country were already under decline in the latter half of the 20th century, but the stagnant pace of economic growth, coupled with a lack of consumer spending means many high streets are also facing an uphill struggle to keep shops open, and the service sector has suffered since 2009. The unemployment rate in Wales is 4.1%, and in the UK as a whole 4.8% (2016).

Despite these struggles, the devolved Welsh government is introducing a number of measures to boost Wales, with programmes aimed at encouraging new business start-ups and foreign investment, a plan to expand the UK's broadband network to cover rural areas of Wales, and the ongoing electrification of the rail network, with the aim of shortening train times.

In Scotland, export of transport equipment as well as textiles, clothing and leather has increased significantly in in recent years. The largest contributions to growth have been from the food and drink and chemicals and refined petroleum products sectors. 

As with the rest of the UK, Scotland’s economy struggled to recover from the 2008 financial crisis but the unemployment rate was 4.7% in 2016, almost on a par with the national rate. 

In Northern Ireland, traditional manufacturing industries have declined, although a steady stream of government contracts has enabled it to survive in a reduced form. Industries like shipbuilding and textile manufacturing are not the forces they once were. Agriculture has performed steadily, underpinned by the policies of the European Union. The public sector is a major employer (even more so than on the British mainland) and subventions from the British government in one form or another account for a significant portion of the province's income.

The political settlement in the province has presented a number of new opportunities for Northern Ireland's economy, as well as a number of problems. The most important of these is tourism, which is particularly sensitive to political circumstances in the province. However, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland now market themselves jointly overseas under the Tourism Ireland banner – this is in addition to Visit Britain’s promotion of Northern Ireland – and awareness of what the destination offers has seen growth in recent years.



Business Etiquette:

Business in London is intense and fast paced. Extended business lunches and post-work drinks were regarded as part of the modern working environment until relatively recently. Nowadays, the emphasis is increasingly on hard work and long hours.

British businesspeople are unlikely to be overtly demonstrative - hand gestures and the use of expressive body language will be minimal and apart from shaking hands, physical contact should be avoided. Standard dress code is a suit and tie for men and a suit (or equivalent) for women but varies greatly depending on the company, with those in the new technologies sectors especially tending towards informality. Punctuality in important and business cards should be carried.

North of the border, in Edinburgh, clients are usually well entertained by their Scottish hosts, most likely taken to lunch in a restaurant or pub (depending on the formality of the business) or to a restaurant in the evening. It is not usual for clients to be invited to one's home. If this is the case, however, visitors should take a gift of flowers, chocolates, wine or whisky, the latter single malt rather than a blend, and always Scotch.

In Wales, all public-sector organisations are bilingual but most private companies conduct business in English unless all parties speak Welsh. Overseas visitors should be prepared to speak English during meetings, if necessary through an interpreter.

In Northern Ireland, meetings are normally arranged from 0900 in offices, alternatively in restaurants or pubs for early afternoon appointments. Visitors should always be punctual and, if formal business is being done, wear either a suit or a jacket and tie. If a late morning meeting is arranged, it is good practice to issue a lunch invitation - whoever extends the invitation usually pays for the meal. The Irish are famed for their sense of humour and the ability to poke fun at themselves and many people take a fun-loving, light-hearted look at life. Nonetheless visitors should avoid any criticism of, or jokes about the people or their culture, and be aware that subjects such as religion and 'The Troubles' can be particularly sensitive topics.

Mon-Fri 0900-1700/1800. However, business hours in London can be much longer.
