Economic Impact of Maritime Sector • Maritime Services: • London is a leading global centre in the supply of business services to the international maritime shipping community. It has a 60% share of the world’s protection and indemnity insurance. • The Oxford Economics study did not investigate the maritime business service sector. It is intended to be included next year. Based on Crown Estate’s (2008) data, Oxford Economics estimates it supported 27,000 jobs and contributed £4 billion to UK GDP. • ‘OneVoice’ – shipping, ports and maritime business services • In 2007, the OneVoice sectors directly contributed £12.7 billion to UK Gross Domestic Product • In total, they contributed around £25 billion to UK GDP. • The OneVoice sectors directly employ 230,000 people.
