CPA Daily Business News – Tuesday 30 December 2025

The UK ends 2025 on a fragile footing, with consumer spending falling, business investment at a G7 low, and household confidence weakening after repeated tax rises. While markets remain resilient and investors are positioning for further gains in 2026, insolvency risk across the real economy remains elevated, particularly for businesses exposed to discretionary spending and delayed payments. For SMEs trading on credit, the message remains mixed: optimism in markets, caution on the ground.

CPA Daily Business News – Friday 2 January 2026

Markets have kicked off the new year with confidence, but beneath the headlines SMEs face continued pressure from taxes, costs and cash-flow risks. With interest rates easing only slowly and insolvencies remaining elevated, today’s news is a reminder that optimism in markets does not always translate into prompt payment on the ground.
