UK – Ad spend in the UK grew 3.7% in 2016 to reach £21.4bn, according to the Advertising Association/Warc Expenditure Report.
This was the seventh consecutive year of market growth with digital formats fairing the best. Internet ad spend was up 13.4% to £10.3bn – mobile accounted for 99% of the growth.
Mobile spend reached £3.9bn, with 86% of the current value of the mobile advertising market generated in just the past five years.
Digital accounted for 38% of the £1.1bn out of home advertising market in 2016, double the share digital recorded in 2012, while revenues from online ads were up for national newsbrands (+4.9% to £230m) for the fifth year running.
TV adspend, boosted by 12.6% growth in video-on-demand revenue, recorded a new high of £5.3bn in 2016, with TV’s share of overall spend holding steady at 25% over the past decade.
Stephen Woodford, chief executive at the Advertising Association said: “Advertising has proved resilient to uncertainty and behind these numbers is a cutting edge, digital business in which Britain is a world-beater. As we work towards Brexit, we’re urging government to support UK advertising and do more to unlock its potential to grow UK plc.”
