The United Kingdom, comprising England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, continues to have an economy dominated by the service industry, which generates around 79% of GDP. London remains a global financial hub, while other prominent sectors include tourism and the burgeoning creative industries. Although the UK's status as an industrial superpower declined during the 20th century, it retains a vibrant manufacturing sector, with significant contributions from advanced manufacturing and green technologies.
In 2024, the UK economy is experiencing modest growth, with GDP expected to increase by 1.1% for the year. Inflation has moderated to 2.6%, with expectations of further stabilisation. Business investment is gradually recovering as interest rates are adjusted to support economic activity. However, challenges remain, including global trade uncertainties and regional economic disparities.
For business owners in the UK, the environment is mixed. While there are opportunities in high-growth sectors such as technology and renewable energy, businesses face headwinds from rising costs and a competitive global landscape. The labour market is loosening slightly, with a gradual increase in unemployment and slower wage growth.
The UK's M&A sector remains active in 2024, driven by both national and international interest in UK companies. The technology, healthcare, and renewable energy sectors are particularly attractive for mergers and acquisitions. Despite some challenges, such as geopolitical uncertainties and regulatory changes, the resilience of UK M&A activity is evident through continued strong deal volumes and values. The focus on strategic acquisitions in high-growth sectors underscores investor confidence in the UK's long-term economic prospects.
