4 Economic Confidence Confidence is rising and is highest among the groups most likely to start their own business or enterprise. However, confidence in the UK economy remains far higher than personal economic confidence.

10 Section 1: Economic Confidence These reflections of economic confidence show little connection with the findings of market tracker PMI, which looks at changes in business output.

11 The Pathway to Entrepreneurship A large number of would-be entrepreneurs fail to even start planning their new business, stopped by concerns about access to start-up funds and the economic climate and by their own fear of failure. Financial incentives are the most significant triggers that convince people to start business and the most important benchmark for success. However, work/life balance, greater self-determination and enjoyment all play a role especially for women.
