The chart provides information relating to how five different realms contributed to Country B’s finance between 1995 and 2015 and a prediction of 2025.
Overall, there is a decrease in the proportion of food processing and tourism, while a reverse trend is seen in the amount of finance throughout the period. Furthermore, the financial industry consistently has the highest figures in all three years.
The share of food processing started at just over 10%, before dramatically increasing to north of 20% in the first twenty years. Similar changes, but to a lesser extent, were witnessed in finance and oil, coal and gas, with respective figures being from 31% and 26% in 1995 to 36% and 31% in 2015. Conversely, only about 21% of manufacturing and just over 25% of tourism contributed to the economy of Country B in the first year, after which both dropped to about 16% and roughly 21% twenty years later, respectively.
By 2025, the figures for food processing, manufacturing and oil, coal and gas are expected to suddenly plummet, accounting for 11%, 6% and 26%, respectively. In contrast, the percentage of the financial industry is more likely to rise by about 7% and the amount of tourism is predicted to remain at this level, at merely 21%.
