UK firms reined in investment plans after Brexit vote

[John T]

"British companies scaled back their investment plans in the month after
Britain voted to leave the European Union, a survey by Lloyds Bank showed on
Monday, a further sign the decision is likely to have a lasting impact on
the economy.

The bank's overall business confidence index, which averages the expected
sales, orders and profits of 1,500 companies over the next six months, fell
to a four-year low of 12 percent from 38 percent in January, Lloyds said.

Companies taking part in the survey, mostly small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs), expected to export less and were much less likely to
hire or increase capital spending."
