Abstract

As the financial year draws to a close, it is a good time to reflect on Scotland's economic performance over the past twelve months and perhaps more so, to consider the significant challenges that lie ahead. Little has changed since December's Fraser Economic Commentary on Scotland's economic performance; there is growth, but the pace is slow with little expectation it will accelerate at any significant rate over the coming three years. As has been well established, increasing productivity has been, and remains, one of Scotland's key economic challenges.
