David Sear, Global Managing Director at Travelex Global Business Payments says: The fall in trade confidence, evident from s index, has been largely impacted by rising UK inflation and the debt crisis we are witnessing in Europe; the UK s main trading partner. UK businesses are already finding it difficult to trade profitably with Europe, due to a continuous pressure on margins and bottom line, and are now anticipating further struggles. With the threat of default and collapse across the channel, it is no wonder that importers and exporters expectations over the next six to twelve months has dropped this month. UK inflation has been above the % target since December 009 and is working against an export-led recovery as it is negatively impacting exporters competitiveness abroad.

2 JUNE 0 Greek woes damage UK trade confidence Business concern over weak economy Having flatlined for the last two quarters at 0.%, business confidence in economic conditions has tumbled as economists have taken a negative view that growth will dip to 0.% in the second quarter of 0. Almost a third (%) of UK businesses trading internationally feel that the economic situation has worsened over the last six months, up % since (%). Whether this is due to consumers tightening their wallets because of stagnant salaries and rising inflation or the impact of the extra bank holiday and Japan s earthquake and tsunami disrupting the supply chain, recent months have proved difficult for businesses trading internationally. Inflation fears impact hopes for an export led recovery recorded a 0% fall in confidence in an export led recovery the lowest confidence level recorded since the Index started (: %, : %) despite the pound tumbling against most major currencies, during the research period. The pound plummeted following s Bank of England minutes published on, which revealed only two members voted for a rate increase. It is likely that inflation anxiety is the main reason for this transition, as in spite of the weak pound, exporters are faced with rising input costs, squeezed margins and forced price increases. Seventy per cent of exporters are concerned that a further increase in inflation, from the current.%, will negatively impact their competitiveness abroad, and adversely affect their business. This is up % since 0 (%). Rising inflation is also a major concern to UK importers, as the Index recorded % increase since in the number of importers international trade being adversely affected by the UK economy (: %, : %). Concern over double dip With a tumbling UK economy, businesses are concerned that we run the risk of dipping back into recessionary territory. Over two fifths (%) of UK businesses feel that a double-dip recession is likely, up % since (%). With the deteriorating European debt crisis and the likelihood that Greece will have to default or reschedule its debts, many are expecting a prolonged period of anaemic growth and believe that there is a risk of returning to a financial crisis. However, despite the view that the MPC will sit tight for the remainder of this year, the UK s recovery is expected to strengthen from the first quarter of 0. Greek crisis knocks confidence in future trade conditions As Europe considers its part in bailing out Greece and stabilising the Euro, the possibility of a domino effect looms over Portugal, Ireland, Italy, and Spain (PIIGS). UK importers and exporters confidence in future international trade conditions decreased by % (: %, 0%), with recent activities in Greece looking to be the cause. Last week, Bank of England Governor Mervyn King warned that small businesses will bear the brunt of the crisis and confirmed that the Bank has discussed contingency plans with the UK Government, in the event of a Greek default.

5 JUNE 0 Feedback from importers and exporters interviewed in In, we asked importers and exporters how rising inflation was affecting their business Exporter trading mainly in Europe I m more concerned with people who work here regarding high inflation. We can t afford to increase the pay in line with inflation. It s therefore the people who work here who are suffering through high inflation rather than the business itself. We try wherever to pass inflationary increases onto customers. Everything is getting more expensive, for instance: product material, fuel making it very hard to compete against the Far East. Importer/Exporter trading mainly in Europe Inflation just completely reduces profit margins and then the viability of the company obviously. Importer/Exporter trading mainly in Europe We deal in food and the constant increases in prices for ingredients, raw materials and packaging means that we have to pass them on to our customers, or fail as a business. Of course the more our prices go up, the less we sell, which causes us to fail as well. Manufacturer, trading mainly in Europe We are only a small business. When monies is owed to us, that s the main problem we have. Everything else we can cope with and work around, it s when we have to pay tax bills, suppliers and all our clients take longer to pay the invoices. Importer/Exporter trading mainly in Asia Inflation doesn t really affect us; apart from the fact that we have to keep putting our prices up.
