Economic Well-being: Jan to Mar 2017

The latest indicators that give us a more rounded and comprehensive basis for assessing changes in economic well-being have been published today. 

Gross domestic product (GDP) per head in the UK was unchanged (0.0% growth) compared with the previous quarter and increased by 1.3% compared with the same quarter a year ago (Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2016).

Net national disposable income (NNDI) per head increased by 4.3% between Quarter 1 2016 and Quarter 1 2017, mainly due to a £6.9 billion increase in the income received from the UK's foreign direct investment from abroad.

Despite improvements in both GDP per head and NNDI per head, real household disposable income (RHDI) per head declined by 2.0% in Quarter 1 2017 compared with the same quarter a year ago – the largest decrease since the end of 2011, driven by increasing prices of goods and services.

The latest economic well-being indicators at a glance

We've launched a new economic well-being dashboard alongside our bulletin, to highlight the different indicators that can be used to assess the health of an economy.
