Goldman Sachs:UK Economy To Grow 7%

On Friday, Goldman Sachs predicted the UK's economy will grow 7% in 2021. The growth will be led by the coronavirus vaccine rollout and a Brexit trade deal. Over half of the country's population is expected to be immunized by March. Business Insider reports there will be a significant rebound in economic activity from the second quarter of next year.

UK GDP will end the year 11.7% under its pre-pandemic level, twice as much as Germany, France, and Italy.
