Foreign Direct Investment in the UK’s Creative Industries

Creative Industries Policy and Evidence Centre (PEC),
20 November 2024, United Kingdom

With the UK Government’s forthcoming industrial strategy highlighting the creative industries as a key sector for both investment and growth, this new report on ‘Foreign Direct Investment’ couldn’t be timelier. The ‘State of the Nations’ report confirms the UK’s global position as a world-leading destination for FDI into the creative industries, yet points to a decline in creative sector FDI into the UK from a peak in 2019; suggesting the need for the Industrial Strategy to focus on initiatives for both attracting inward and generating outward FDI as a policy priority.
