Sample Band 9 Report

This report concerns a bar chart, which compares Scotland’s exports in different areas of industry to the rest of the UK with its exports to the rest of the world in 2014.

It is evident that exports to the rest of the world were much more significant to the Scottish economy than those to the rest of the UK.

The bar chart shows that in 2014 Scotland exported more to the rest of the world than to the rest of the UK in all the industries mentioned with one exception. The Electrical & Instrument Engineering industry exports were £4 billion to the rest of the UK compared to £2.3 billion going to the rest of the world.

In other industry sectors, the difference in exports was most significant in the Business Services & Finance, Hotels & Restaurant Services Industry, with exports to the rest of the world worth £13.8 billion and exports to the UK worth only £1.7 billion. Other notable sectors were Wholesale & Retail with roughly £7 billion of difference between exports to ROW and the rest of the UK, Chemicals & Mineral Products and Other Manufacturing where the difference between exports to the rest of the world and those to the rest of the UK was approaching £5 billion.
