UK companies are projected to invest $650bn over the next three years according to the Times. The plan is to re-establish manufacturing in the UK. This is brought about by concerns over geopolitical risks and supply chain disruptions. This was revealed in a survey by Capgemini. Of British firms surveyed, 59% plan to enhance their manufacturing capabilities both domestically and in nearby countries by 2028. Rob Walker, UK managing director of Capgemini, stated that this reindustrialisation “represents a big opportunity for economic growth.”

Assuming the conclusions of this survey are accurate this is good news for the UK economy. Maybe we should say “Thank you” to Mr Trump for encouraging more moves to re-introduce manufacturing in this country!!?
