New report aims to take the economic temperature of Buckinghamshire business

Business and financial adviser Grant Thornton will be selecting the firms based on the postcode of their trading address and levels of turnover.

Called Buckinghamshire Limited, the analysis will be compiled using the latest available company accounts and provide a key barometer of the county’s overall business performance and changing marketplace.

David Newstead partner at Grant Thornton, which operates across Buckinghamshire, said: “Buckinghamshire is a diverse county which is home to many highly successful companies including a number of notable UK and international businesses. The first ever Buckinghamshire Limited review will offer a valuable picture of the Buckinghamshire business economy and should make very interesting reading.”

The results of the study will be presented at a special breakfast event on Friday October 18, attended by many of the county’s business leaders.

The Buckinghamshire Limited study will analyse details such as operating profit and employment figures, and will include a breakdown of the financial data by sector.

Buckinghamshire Limited has been launched following the success of a number of similar annual initiatives run by Grant Thornton across other UK counties including Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, and Hertfordshire.
