In October 2023, real estate, professional services, and support activities were the industries that borrowed the highest amount of money, followed by construction. Due to the economic effects caused by the COVID-19 pandemic the Bank of England implemented quantitative easing measures in 2020. The injection of new money supply to help kick start the economy saw a huge increase in lending to businesses in March 2020. Key sectors including the construction, manufacturing, real estate and transport industries could take advantage of the record low bank base interest rate set by the Bank of England.
