delivering growth:

We can unleash growth if businesses have the right operating framework. But all too often, the broader fiscal conditions and the mechanisms that drive it, are not directly in the control of business.  

Everything from the overarching tax system to business rates, planning, infrastructure and connectivity currently don’t deliver enough growth. 

Through this campaign, we aim to work with Government to champion everything impacting a business’s ability to scale, grow and achieve a sustainable footing. When businesses grow, so do their people and the communities they serve.  

The right investment decisions unlock growth. The wrong ones have dire consequences. This campaign seeks to put businesses on the front foot.  

Our advocacy is identifying the right investment levers that really support business ambitions.

Should I Stay Or Should I Grow?

A Business Roadmap for fiscal devolution

A sense of place matters to all of us. It’s where we live, where we work, where we socialise, where we run a business. It’s our identity. People are proud of where they are from and what that represents. And now, place is increasingly central to decision-making in government.

As this report sets out, if government is to deliver growth in every postcode, devolution must be inclusive, focused on economic growth, and business-led. With the right structures and partnerships, devolution can be a powerful driver of prosperity across the whole UK.
