UK economy grew 0.3% in Q2—better than expected. SMEs should seize this cautious optimism to strengthen cashflow, reconsider borrowing strategies, and lock in favourable terms while lenders stay competitive. Info only – not advice. #SMEfinance #UKBusiness

Stamp Duty may be scrapped — replaced by a new national property tax on homes >£500k. Biggest risk? Confidence + liquidity. Housing wealth isn’t just personal, it underpins SME borrowing, spending + growth. #TaxReform #SMEfinance

Global evidence on wealth taxes is sobering: France & Sweden scrapped theirs after capital flight + tiny yields. Others followed. Where they survive (Switzerland, Norway, Spain), they’re narrow + carefully designed. UK should focus on pro-growth, fairer alternatives.

UK inflation back up to 3.8%. Energy, water + wages are squeezing SME margins despite a 4% base rate. 👉 Review prices monthly 👉 Tighten cash flow forecasts 👉 Line up flexible funding before you need it #SMEfinance #UKBusiness #Inflation

£150bn in AI potential—but most UK SMEs are still locked out. Too many schemes. Not enough access. We don’t need pilot projects. We need one clear door to knock on. Funding. Advice. Skills. All in one place. Built for SMEs. #SMEs #AIadoption #UKBusiness
