The webinar will focus on the benefits of cloud accounting and the key things you need to consider when starting a business, such as legal structure, funding, bookkeeping and more.

A global pandemic may seem an unlikely catalyst for business growth, but for some, changing circumstances and time to spare have played a part in fostering innovation and entrepreneurialism.

According to companies house statistics, the size of the total register increased by 163,236 between December 2020 and December 2021, an increase of 3.5% across the whole of the UK.

The size of both the total and effective registers increased at a consistent rate from the first quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2020.

However, between the second quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2021, the rate of growth of the total register size significantly increased.

Jaslin Bhagrath, partner at Henderson Loggie, said: “As the economy recovers from the impact of Covid restrictions, we expect to see a rise in the number of new businesses getting off the ground to fill the gaps created by businesses lost.

“Whatever goals people are pursuing in starting a business, it pays to take advice from experts to avoid common pitfalls and ensure the business is structured correctly to meet those goals.”
