The quarterly Deloitte CFO Survey has been gauging sentiment and balance-sheet strategies among the UK’s largest businesses since 2007.
"Despite concerns about geopolitics and the possibility of a US hard landing, business optimism is continuing to run at above-average levels. Unlike the period following the invasion of Ukraine in 2022 – when CFOs’ worries about energy supply and prices spiked in tandem with geopolitical concerns – finance leaders today are relatively sanguine about the risks around energy, in part, perhaps because of the decline in the oil price between July and late September."
Ian Stewart, Chief Economist at Deloitte
