About the Capital 500: London Quarterly Economic Survey
Since 2014, we have polled over 500 London businesses every quarter to discover how businesses in London are faring. The data is weighted to be representative of all London businesses by company size and broad industry sector. The survey provides crucial insight into what’s happening in London's business community.
The survey results are fed into HM Treasury, the Mayor of London, the Bank of England and many other influential policymakers.
