According to the latest figures published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), between March 2017 and February 2018, UK exports increased from £594bn to £627.6bn – a rise of 10.4 per cent.
Meanwhile, a recent report from HSBC found that Britain’s export boom looks set to continue. The bank predicted that exports will rise by 22 per cent by 2020, and double overall by 2030.
In a survey of more than 6,000 UK business decision makers, HSBC found that almost three quarters (72 per cent) expected international trade to increase in the next 12 months. In addition, the lender’s trade forecast figures predicted that UK goods and service exports would increase by 10 per cent in 2018 alone – the fastest rate of growth since for six years.
