Our member, ICAEW have just published their National and Regional Business Confidence Monitor Reports (BCM) for Q3.
The latest national Business Confidence Monitor (BCM) shows that business sentiment deteriorated further into negative territory in Q3 2025. This increased pessimism is underpinned by elevated concern over the tax burden as well as above-average inflation, and weak domestic and exports sales growth eroding businesses’ profit margins
The survey results are based on 1,000 telephone interviews among ICAEW Chartered Accountants covering a range of UK sectors, regions and company sizes, ensuring a representative picture of the UK economy. The latest quarterly findings are based on the period 14 July to 24 September 2025.
ICAEW are hosting a Regional Economic Update on 4th November to discuss these results as well as providing insight into companies that have successfully obtained funding for growth initiatives.
