The National Survey of Registered Businesses (NSRB) gathers self-reported data from UK businesses. It:
- measures exporting behaviours, plans, and attitudes
- provides insights into perceptions around barriers to exporting
- informs the design of marketing campaigns such as ‘Made in the UK, Sold to the World’
The NSRB is an annual survey and the eighth wave of the research took place across 2023. The questionnaire is revised each year to reflect the Department for Business and Trade’s priorities. We track some measures consistently which helps us to look at trends over time.
