Exiting the EU will present both opportunities and challenges, but the UK will remain an open country, and an attractive location to invest and do business, in part due to our competitive tax regime and access to skilled talent.

The independent Office for Budget Responsibility’s March forecast projected corporation tax receipts to increase from £53.6bn in 2016-17 to £54.7bn in 2021-22.
