Channel Metrics: Consumer Distribution Trends in UK Travel Money (briefing)

Channel Metrics: Consumer Distribution Trends in UK Travel Money is the most detailed and up-to-date guide to distribution trends in travel money in the UK available on a published basis. It analyses: how consumers take out this product - e.g. online, telephone, post or in person; from whom they take it out - e.g. direct from the provider, through brokers or affinity schemes; and how often they take it out - i.e. how many consumers took it out in 2011, either for the first time or by using a different provider instead of using the same provider as the previous time.
