Great -Britain has become the most unpopular market worldwide under leading fund managers, while growth men and inflation are left after the budget of Chancellor Rachel Reeves.
A monthly survey by Bank of America shows that the UK is the least attractive country for investors who arrange in bonds, cash, energy and utilities in terms of profession.
The findings come in the midst of signs of a fragile domestic economy. Recent data showed that the GDP rose only 0.1% in the last quarter of 2024, mainly driven due to an increase in government spending. The private sector, on the other hand, has concluded a contrast in the same period and the company investments have fallen since the £ 25 billion of the £ 25 billion on the contributions of the national insurance policies of employers.
Elyas Galou at Bank of America says that the data illustrates a textbook case of “stagflation” in the UK: modest growth in combination with stubborn high inflation. “When I speak with investors, I often ask when they last heard positive news about the UK. They usually struggle to answer. It is fundamentally a growth problem, “he notes.
Worldwide investors are increasingly attracted by the US and the eurozone, with the UK experiencing from the $ 129 billion out of the Brexit -mood in 2016, almost half of the total assets managed by British stock funds. In the same period, American stock funds moved $ 1.1 trillion on fresh money, which a huge pivot removed from Europe – in particular Great -Britain.
While the government strives for foreign investments to generate economic expansion in the long term, sentiment remains anchored in negativity. The recent visit by the Chancellor to China and the re -denial of trade discussions with India emphasizes Whitehall’s Push to attract international capital, but renewed confidence in Great Britain remains elusive.
