UK quarterly national accounts: July to Sept 2016

The reporting period for this release includes Quarter 3 (July to Sept) 2016, and therefore includes data for the whole period after the EU referendum. Since the result, growth in gross domestic product (GDP) has been in line with recent trends.

UK GDP in volume terms was estimated to have increased by 0.6% in Quarter 3 2016, revised up 0.1 percentage points from the second estimate of GDP published on 26 November 2016, due to upward revisions from the output of the business services and finance industries. This is the 15th consecutive quarter of positive growth since Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2013.
