The latest economic data on the financial services in Wales is from 2021. This shows:
In terms of economic output (Gross Value Added from ONS Regional Accounts), Financial Services were 2.0% of total Welsh GVA in 2021, down from 2.1% in 2020.
Financial services were 0.9% of total Welsh employment in 2021, according to the Business Register and Employment Survey. This is a higher share than in 2020 (0.8%), the only GB country to record an increase in its relative size of the sector by employment.
To note: Financial services is defined here as standard industrial classification (SIC) code 64: Financial service activities, except insurance and pension funding.
