The UK’s financial services industry is not nearly as London-centric as the creative industries. Rather than the South East of England being the country’s productivity engine, it is a band stretching west from the capital along the M4 corridor towards Bristol. And in addition to longstanding concerns about the North-South divide, there are emerging disparities between coastal and inland areas.

This article summarises ‘Industry in Britain – An Atlas’ by Sandra Bernick, Richard Davies and Anna Valero, CEP Special Paper No. 34, September 2017.
