Business Advice for all UK firms from starting a business to flotation
UK businesses confident over future
Over 70% of businesses describe their attitude towards the UK economy as either hopeful or excited, according to new research from Barclays Bank.
The Connecting Business survey found that 57% of respondents characterised their outlook towards the economy as ‘hopeful' and 17% described their attitude as ‘excited.'
15% of respondents believe that their firm will move back into sustained growth in the next six months, with 28% thinking this will occur in six to twelve months.
"Confidence is key to recovery and the results of this survey demonstrate a real and growing confidence in UK businesses," said Ian Stuart, Managing Director of Barclays Commercial Bank.
"The past 18 months have provided an extremely testing environment for many organisations; however, after evolving to meet the challenges of this new commercial landscape we are now seeing the beginnings of a renewed drive for growth."
