Stay ahead of the latest economic trends with our November Economic Review, which takes a detailed look at the major financial developments from October. Our monthly newsletter offers insights into the factors shaping markets and how they might influence future financial decisions.

In this issue, key highlights include a short-term budget boost forecasted by the Office for Budget Responsibility, a sharp fall in inflation, and the latest trends in retail sales, which rose for the third consecutive month. However, signs of a cooling jobs market, including slower pay growth and fewer job vacancies, suggest that economic momentum may be slowing. This report offers insights into how these shifts could impact future financial decisions.
