Rebalancing the Economy: Trade and Investment

Written evidence from Alexander Ehmann, Head of Parliamentary and Regulatory Affairs,
Institute of Directors

Following on from today’s evidence session (and as requested) I attach the cross-tabulations of the data that I volunteered at the closing on proceedings (on the global regions IoD members expect to see export growth in from 2011-2016).

The data is derived from all those that export and that indicated they expected to see growth in their export activity over this 5year period   I have cross-tabulated the data against service/goods splits and also high level sectoral groupings.  You’ll note that the overall figure is broadly supported by the sectoral subsets, indeed the propensity to cite the EU as the growth market is stronger than the overall figure in surprising sectors such manufacturing and business services, as well as in goods more broadly.
