Jersey's GDP per head decreases 1%
Chris Quevatre
BBC News Online
Jersey's GDP per head decreased by 1% in 2017.
Gross Domestic Product is the total value of goods and service produced within a jurisdiction over the course of one year.
Dividing this figure by the population gives you GDP per head.
A drop in this figure means each person in Jersey has - on average - contributed and received less money from the island's economy.
The graph above shows that Jersey's GDP per head has decreased in 2017, Guernsey's and the UKs has kept growing.
Guernsey's figure has grown by more than 8% since 2012, while Jersey's has grown by less than 2% over the same period.
Statistics Jersey said the 2017 decrease was caused by the change in economic output being less than the increase in the island's population.

Ministers are proposing new laws to strengthen children's rights in Jersey.
Young people's welfare is to be a policy priority for the States as senior politicians announced five strategic policies for their term of office.
Their other priorities are: health, the economy, standard of living and the environment.
They said the rights of children were going to become more of a key priority after the Jersey Independent Care Inquiry found the States had been a neglectful substitute parent to young people in care.
Ministers said they were proposing to extend the Children's Commissioner's legal powers.
They said the aim was to adopt the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, and Jersey law would set out the government's responsibilities as a corporate parent.
Ministers said Jersey should "become the best place for children to grow up".
