British trade minister Liz Truss has said the United States tops her priority list for post-Brexit trade deals and has been in Washington this week, along with Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, to promote UK-US ties. While Germany has long been Britain’s biggest source of imports, the United States was already Britain’s largest export market, with exports reaching a record high of 121.6 billion pounds in the last financial year.
The trade department said financial services imports from the United States had grown by 15% since 2018, with transatlantic trade in services worth more than 55 billion pounds annually to both countries.
