answer text <p>We have made no specific assessment of this release.</p><p>In the 2018 Budget, the Government announced measures that are expected to affect business investment. These include the introduction of a permanent structures and buildings allowance and a temporary increase in the annual investment allowance for 2 years. These measures, in conjunction with the reduction in the writing down allowance for the special rate pool of assets are expected to increase the level of business investment by 0.4 per cent by the end of the forecast period.</p><p>In its October 2018 forecast, the independent OBR (Office for Budget Responsibility) expect business investment to increase by 8% between 2016 Q4 and 2021Q1 and for business investment to rise as a share of GDP.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Under the 2012 Financial Services (Banking Reform) Act large UK banks with retail deposits totalling more than £25 billion are required to ring-fence the deposits of individuals and small businesses from other activities within their groups, such as investment and international banking.</p><p> </p><p>All banks within scope of the ring-fencing regime have successfully completed the necessary restructuring of their operations in advance of the regime coming into force in January 2019. This includes moving customers from one part of the bank to another, changing over a million sort codes and the joining of both UK and international payment systems to facilitate operational separation. The banks have also completed large technology migrations as part of the changes to their internal processes</p><p> </p><p>By insulating these core banking services in a separate legal entity, ring-fencing will support continuity of provision of vital services to the economy if there are shocks originating elsewhere in the group and the global financial system. It will also make banks that provide these essential services simpler and more resolvable and therefore prevent the costs of failing banks falling on taxpayers.</p>
