<p>Productivity growth has slowed globally since the financial crisis. The Government
is closely monitoring the effects of this on the UK economy to guide policy. Since

the National Productivity Investment Fund, increasing support for R&D to its highest
level in 30 years by 2021/22, transforming lifelong learning and responding to the
