LCCI's Quarterly Economic Survey (QES) is London's biggest and most representative business survey.
For over a decade LCCI has conducted a QES of London businesses to gauge businesses' performance and general confidence levels across the capital. This is part of the biggest and longest running national private business survey, conducted by regional chambers of commerce across the UK every quarter.
Since 2014 LCCI has partnered with leading polling agency Savanta ComRes to poll over 500 London businesses. 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.
A punitive Employment Rights Act and Autumn Budget have seen London’s business confidence drop to its lowest level under the Labour government, according to the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s latest quarterly economic survey of the capital’s business leaders.
Every quarter, our expert panel present their views on the results of the report, discuss the challenges and opportunities that it presents, and answer questions from the audience.
