Preparing for our future UK trade policy Government Response

We want to maximize our trade opportunities globally and across all countries both by boosting our trading relationships with old friends and new allies and by seeking a deep and special partnership with the EU. The IMF project that around 90% of world growth is likely to come from outside the EU1 so it is likely that a greater proportion of UK trade will continue to be with non-EU countries.
