Related report: Offshoring of business services and its impact on the UK economy
Business services are an increasingly significant part of the UK economy. And despite fears of jobs in certain key sectors like computer services being ѥxported' to low-cost locations in Asia, the numbers of jobs in business services in this country are growing. What's more, it's a sector where we have almost eliminated the notorious productivity gap with the United States, notably in two high-skilled sectors ֠computer services and professional services, which includes accountancy, advertising and law.
