Hundreds of civic-minded businesses make the South Yorkshire Quarterly Economic Survey.

Ours is the largest regular private-sector survey of business sentiment in South Yorkshire. It is a joint effort of Doncaster, Sheffield and Barnsley & Rotherham Chambers.

Your responses help us track the local economy and campaign for your priorities. Decision-makers in local, regional and national governments depend on the results.

It feeds into the Quarterly Economic Survey run by the British Chambers of Commerce. This is the country’s biggest and longest-running poll of its type. It’s respected as a leading economic indicator, having identified tuning points in the business environment long before other surveys or other official statistics. The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee use it as a benchmark when setting interest rates.
