Commissioned by a group of the UK’s largest private infrastructure investors and operators, this report benchmarks UK investment against G7 and OECD peers, identifies the three barriers that consistently distinguish the UK from higher-investing economies, and models what a sustained rise in business investment would mean for the economy.
