Abstract

Iceland is one of the world’s richest countries, and, arguably, the only one so wealthy from wild capture fisheries. Less than a decade ago, over 70 per cent of its currency income came from fisheries and fish products. Today, though this has decreased to 50 per cent, it still leaves the sector the largest currency earner, well ahead of tourism and other industries.
