<p>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has not directly funded any nation branding
consultancies to work in overseas states and territories. Information on any part
funded nation branded consultancies working in overseas states and territories is
not held centrally and to collate this would incur disproportionate cost.</p><p>The
Foreign and Commonwealth Office has, however, previously paid subscription fees for
the years 2009-2012 to Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brands Index, a US based market and
consumer information organisation which provides an analytical ranking to help measure
and manage national reputation. The subscription costs were: for 2012: £30,597.44;
for 2011: £29,554.50; for 2010: £31,141.41 and for 2009: £33,960.81.</p>
