Money Box Live: What Britain Sells

Money Box

Available for over a year

Which industries generate the most income for the UK these days? It used to be obvious how we made our money. You could see it, smell it - in the dust, din and steam of the cities. Now it's much less clear. As Brexit negotiations continue, it's more important than ever to understand which engines are driving our economy. Adam Shaw and a panel of guests explore the sectors that are creating wealth for the country now. And surprisingly, financial services are not as dominant as you might think. Guests: Darren Morgan, Office for National Statistics Isabelle Jenkins, Head of Banking at PWC in the UK Paul O'Donnell, Manufacturing Technologies Association Dr Victoria Bateman, Economist and economic historian, Cambridge University Presenter: Adam Shaw Producer: Sally Abrahams.
