How competitive is the United Kingdom?

The United Kingdom has one of the best environments for doing business in.  A stable and business oriented economy combined with liberalised markets mean a wealth of opportunities await any business interested in taking advantage of them. 

The fourth largest economy in the world, the UK is a global centre of expertise and innovation which is easily shared through its excellent physical and virtual connections with the rest of the world.  Low corporation tax rates and other business costs, combined access to the world’s largest single market and a flexible and well educated workforce make the UK hard to beat as a business location.

Many companies have already seen the benefit of operating here, making the United Kingdom the most popular location for companies investing in Europe over the last four years.
