the UK government struck a trade deal with the United States, and its made it easier to sell certain goods to the US.
It’s a step in the right direction, especially for manufacturers, but there are still a lot of loose ends in this trade deal. Many businesses won’t see immediate changes, and the finer details – especially around quotas and product rules – still need to be worked out.
You might be wondering how all these trade changes affects you and your business day to day. Here’s the takeaway:
- Borrowing costs may ease a little. If you have loans or overdrafts tied to the base rate, the interest may drop slightly.
- Exporters may see new opportunities, particularly in manufacturing. If you’re selling to the US or considering it, this new tariff agreement could make a difference.
- Consumer confidence could improve. If the cost of borrowing continues to fall and inflation keeps steady, shoppers may feel a bit more comfortable spending again.
