The contribution of Asian-owned businesses to London's economy

Launched by the Mayor with the Asian Business Association, this report by GLA Economics assesses the vital contribution Asian businesses make to the London economy. It highlights the level of entrepreneurialism within the community, with people from Indian, Pakistani and Chinese backgrounds more likely to be self-employed than the average for the population as a whole. Using data from the 2004 London Annual Business survey, the report also examines the challenges facing Asian businesses in London today.
