OPTIMISM is high among British companies but Scotland’s small firms show the strongest figures of any UK region.
According to Lloyds TSB, the economy rebounded sharply in April and above-average growth is likely to be sustained throughout the second quarter of the year.
This follows on from Scotland being the best performing region on the first quarter of the year with the strongest growth rate since 1999.
Lloyds TSB also found the balance of firms feeling optimistic rather than pessimistic about the economy rose 12 percentage points in April, up to 41% from 29% in March.
