Norfolk Chambers’ Quarterly Economic Survey (QES) is the largest independent business survey in the UK, receiving in excess of 7,000 responses from across the UK each quarter. But why should your business take part? Simply put, the larger the voice of Norfolk’s manufacturers and service sector firms, the louder our voice is heard at a national level.
With the lack of certainty surrounding our economy as a result of Brexit, having some clear indicators about the health of the local and national economy are more valuable than ever. The QES often shows changes in economic trends, well in advance of other surveys. It is used by the Bank of England to set interest rates; the Treasury and the Chancellor of the Exchequer when considering national economic decisions; and by the International Monetary Fund when comparing the UK economy to other global economies.
The survey takes less than 3 minutes to complete online, its multiple choice, so no long written answers and anonymous. The next fieldwork period starts on Monday 26 August – save the date in your diary and watch your inbox, our website or our social media feeds for the QES survey link.
