Abstract

With the delay in the publication of this quarter's Commentary it should be borne in mind that responses to both the Scottish Chamber's Business Survey (SCBS) and CBI surveys now refer to developments of two months ago. Accordingly, responses do not take account of, or could reasonably be assumed to have anticipated, the recent increases in nominal interest rates and the depreciation of sterling.
