UK government relaunches £1tn global export target

To date, UK exports have not enjoyed the same rebound as that of trade globally, but a relaunched £1tn per annum export target by 2030 seeks to address this. UK Export Finance (UKEF), will be permitted to back larger working capital loans for both foreign and domestic companies that wish to export from the UK. This could encourage FDI within the UK, while supporting global growth for domestic companies. UKEF will double the repayment period to 10 years for 鈥榞reen鈥� exporters, another measure to encourage the UK鈥檚 low carbon economy as well as exports.

Forecast season is here, and the outlook remains upbeat

Updated forecasts will be released in a few days.
