2025 is proving to be a defining year for the transatlantic business corridor. In the UK, slow economic growth and persistent concerns over the tax environment continue to challenge investor confidence, even after the publication of the government's long-awaited Industrial Strategy. Meanwhile in the US, the introduction of volatile tariffs on global imports has led to retaliatory responses and increased operational costs — with no clear de-escalation path in sight.
Yet, it's not all caution. Rapid advances in AI and clean energy, coupled with a highly skilled workforce on both sides of the Atlantic are unlocking new investment potential across multiple sectors. Meanwhile, confidence in the future of the UK-EU relationship has reached its highest level since Brexit.
Against this backdrop, join us on Monday, September 8th as we unveil the findings of this year's Index, featuring insights into what's driving, and hindering, confidence among UK and US investors.
Don't miss this opportunity as we explore questions such as
- Is US investor confidence in the UK as a place to do business continuing to decline?
- Has UK investor confidence in the US declined because of 'Liberation Day'?
- What are the key concerns shaping transatlantic business decisions in 2025, and where do opportunities lie?
Please note that this event will be held under Chatham House Rule.
