Healthy competition encourages businesses to improve and innovate for the benefit of their customers. It means that businesses compete on a level playing field and people get a fair deal. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) explains why competition law is important for businesses and their customers.

Jeremy Thomson-Cook, Chief Economist, FairFX looks at how the Covid-19 outbreak is impacting global markets. 

The ICAS Foundation offers help in the form of bursaries and grants to students from less advantaged communities, helping to make sure that accountancy is a profession that is open to all. Find out more about the foundation's work in this article.
