Little Rays of Sunshine

Our second annual BBQ was held last night in the gardens of our Coventry City Centre offices and was very well attended by a wide selection of Coventry and Warwickshire business professionals.
We enjoyed a warm sunny evening and guests were able to venture out of the marquee and into the gardens to enjoy the last of the day’s sunshine.
I am constantly impressed at the quality and depth of knowledge and experience of the Coventry and Warwickshire business community and in particular the efforts the City is making to regenerate itself as traditional industries and jobs move to other parts of the globe. The City and the County have a real opportunity to develop new skills and new talents and with the level of inward investment that is being attracted to the region, the future looks bright, even through the current economic downturn.
Much of the talk last night was about the daily bad news that is being reported but the general consensus of those present was that many clients are finding things tough but they are managing. The obvious exception to this is those connected to the construction and residential homes sectors, where clearly things are very difficult.
I think everyone is agreed that as Insolvency Practitioners we are going to get busier as the year progresses and we have increased the team size in readiness for the upturn in the need for our services. How much busier we actually get is uncertain but I for one do not believe that we will see a return to the volumes of corporate failures that we saw in the early 1990s.
