Macroeconomic information
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK) is an island country located of the northeast coast of the European continent. With England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales providing the main portion of the country’s GDP, the UK is the sixth largest economy in the world. The UK is known as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th century, but nowadays the largest share of GDP can be attributed to the services sector (73%).
London, the capital of England, is one of the biggest financial centres in the world with among its most important financial facilities the London Stock Exchange. The capital is also seen as one of the three “command centres” of the global economy alongside New York and Tokyo.
The UK economy was hit hard by the financial crisis. As can be observed in Figure 1-1 the UK underperforms compared to the average of OECD countries. During 2008 GDP growth rates were on average substantially lower than those of the OECD total.
