Participate in the second round of the QCA/BDO Small & Mid-Cap Sentiment Index
20th January 2012
[Updated 10 February 2012 - we have now closed the survey for responses. Thanks to all that participated and we'll be publishing the report at the end of February.]
Recently you may have received an invitation to take part in the second survey of the QCA/BDO Small and Mid Cap Sentiment Index - an initiative of the Quoted Companies Alliance in partnership with BDO LLP and powered by YouGovStone - to allow us to regularly monitor the business sentiment of the small and mid-cap quoted company sector.
Following our successful launch in September last year we would really appreciate your input and support, so we can take your voice to government.
This month’s survey has a special focus on the Budget in March and should take around 5 minutes to complete. Everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a prize draw for a case of quality champagne. Congratulations to the winner from our last survey, Graham Bell from Allenby Capital.
If you have not already done so, please click here to complete the survey.
The results will be available in late February and we will send everyone that completes the survey a copy of the report. If you have any problems completing the survey please email Kate Jalbert.
For the full report of the findings from our first survey, please visit our QCA/BDO Small & Mid-Cap Sentiment Index microsite.
