Business Current Accounts
Published February 2021
As part of a regulatory requirement, an independent survey was conducted to ask approximately 1,200 customers of the 14 largest business current account providers if they would recommend their provider to other small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs*). The results represent the view of customers who took part in the survey.
