Modelling real quarterly GVA data for London

Key information

Publication type: General

Publication date: Tuesday 6 December 2016

As of yet no official measure of quarterly growth in London’s economy on either a nominal or real measure exists. At the annual level nominal GVA data is available (with a lag), but real GVA data remains experimental in nature and is not classified as a national statistic.
GLA Economics has therefore undertaken analysis to calculate this data at the London level.
Current issues note 50 sets out the methodology that has been used for this analysis and first estimates of quarterly real GVA for London.
