Confidence among small firms in the legal sector has grown, according to research by Hitachi Capital Business Finance
It found ‘a significant upturn’, with nearly
half (47%) of legal sector businesses anticipating growth in the first quarter
of 2020 as Britain enters the Brexit transition period. Real estate (49%), IT
and telecoms (49%) and media (46%) are also in bullish mood. Among small
businesses overall, 39% expect to grow in the first three months.
Gavin Wraith-Carter, managing director at Hitachi Capita, said: ‘What is heartening is the diversity of this confidence, which spans regions, sectors and older businesses modernising.’
