More than three fifths (68%) of small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) in Scotland are expecting to see revenues rise this quarter, compared to the same period last year.
The latest quarterly Barclays SME Barometer - conducted among a nationally-representative regional and industry sample of 574 business leaders, including 56 in Scotland - showed that Scottish SMEs expect to see a 10.4% rise between the months of April and June 2022, against the same period in 2021.
This follows a successful first quarter of the year, with 51% reporting a rise from the previous quarter, and 56% reporting a year-on-year rise in revenue.
