Many problems in store: for instance right now Scotland brings in a lot of "invisible" income through its financial services industry. After the break-up a lot of these institutions will suddenly look very large compared to the economy of their host country, and presto!, the Iceland effect kicks in - people are still gun-shy about putting money in large institutions in small countries.

Aside from that, the Scotch and tourism industries have a great future, and probably the knowledge-based sector based on the continuing high quality of higher Ed. In fact shrinking the financial sector would probably be a good thing - freeing up some bright people to do productive things instead.

Scotland will also have open borders for 3rd world immigration.

It’s toast.
