Business optimism has climbed to its highest level since June 2015, boosted by the roll-out of #COVID-19 vaccines, according to a survey.
The poll of around 1,400 firms, carried out last month, showed hotels and restaurants moved to being the most confident sector after being the least confident last autumn.
Hiring intentions across the #economy rose to a balance of +30%, indicating a stronger jobs recovery than the +15% average figure for the wider global business outlook survey of 12,000 firms.
The improvement in UK business confidence was largely driven by the services sector – which ranges from bars and restaurants to law firms and accountants and represents four-fifths of economic output.
After a tough year it is encouraging to see #business confidence bouncing back.
