New Year thoughts

  Mervyn King, Governor, Bank of England 
  • It is difficult to know how hard households will be hit as the credit crunch intensifies.  It is cutting back the supply credit and increasing the cost of borrowing individuals and businesses

  • Property investment, both commercial and residential, could fall back sharply

  • Small firms which rely on banks to lend them money for investment may also find it more difficult to get cash

Richard Lambert, director-general of the Confederation of British Industry,

  •  observes the balance of economic power was shifting to India and China.
