AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

UK Economy Watch: The British Chambers of Commerce says growth will stay stuck around 1% this year and next as costs bite and investment and exports lag, with inflation expected to peak at 3.6% late 2026. Student Finance: From 2027, tuition tops £10,000 a year for the first time, while Plan 5 student loans extend repayment to 40 years, lower the repayment threshold and switch interest to RPI—pushing more scrutiny onto total debt and affordability. Fintech & Markets: London’s FTSE 100 closed flat as investors digested US jobs data; separately, Nscale is in talks to raise up to $3.5bn ahead of an IPO, with Third Point and Nvidia reportedly in the mix. Banking & Consumer Money: Pension Credit take-up remains low, with DWP warning many eligible households miss out on extra cash; and pensioners face a deadline to opt out of Winter Fuel Payments. Fraud & Payments Security: Police in Sutton Coldfield investigate courier fraud after a vulnerable man’s cards were stolen and used for withdrawals. Policy & Regulation: Revolut’s US banking push continues after conditional approval steps, while the UK’s wider political funding row around Reform UK deepens with fresh scrutiny and resignations.
