The FPB is able to provide a wealth of detailed insight on issues of concern to owners and managers of smaller businesses thanks to our rigorous research programme involving members and the wider small-business audience.
Our research is used to inform:
-
The FPB's campaigns and 'calls to action'
-
Press and media coverage
-
Government reviews and consultations
-
Elected representatives, directly, with our members' concerns
-
The All-Party Parliamentary Small Business Group
You are likely to be asked once a year to participate in our quarterly survey. This survey tracks changes in member opinion and looks in a little more detail at individual issues. This provides our main lobbying ammunition.
We occasionally do more detailed work, such as our biennial bank survey: Private Businesses and their Banks. This widely-recognised piece of research is considered a reliable measure on the developing relationship between private businesses and their banks. |
