Scotland's economy

EMBARGOED TO 0001 THURSDAY MAY 2 File photo dated 09/04 18 of Scottish bank notes. Scotland's economy is predicted to see slow but steady growth in the medium term, according to the first Scottish economic outlook report from KPMG. The auditing firm said the economic momentum is likely to be propelled by consumer spending thanks to a recovery in incomes and a relatively low propensity to save. But the outlook for business investment is weaker, with uncertainty expected to persist into next year. Issue date: Thursday May 2, 2024.
