Britain enjoyed a five-year high in opportunities for entrepreneurs leading up to the EU referendum in June, but that progress is at risk of being set back by current market uncertainty.
The Barclays Entrepreneurs Index assesses the strength of the UK’s entrepreneurial environment and found that overall UK performance is up 10% since 2011. But a lack of new scale-up businesses, as well as market uncertainty, could harm the nation's growth prospects.
