Highlights from the Autumn Statement debrief

Here are some key takeaways from an engaging and insightful panel discussion:

  • It’s not all doom and gloom.
    Rapid company formation, strong balance sheets, and minimal redundancies suggest a resilient UK economy.
  • Growth can mean many things.
    In tough times, growth is any incremental impact for customers and stakeholders.
  • Full expensing isn’t for everyone.
    This measure is better suited to larger businesses, particularly in manufacturing, with the profits to invest in plant and machinery.
  • R&D Tax Credits are complicated.
    A complex application process and hidden austerity could make it difficult for businesses to claim successfully.
