    Research from Simply Asset Finance reveals that three-quarters of UK SMEs (74%) expect the upcoming budget to impact their future growth plans, with 31% saying the effect will be significant. In response to the current economic climate, many SMEs have raised prices, shifted to remote working, and outsourced services. However, a notable proportion remains optimistic about growth prospects, despite concerns over inflation, interest rates, and the stagnant economy. SMEs are calling for government support on issues like high energy costs, red tape reduction, and tax incentives for innovation.
