1987 – Year of the shrinking market?
Investors in Industry (known as 3i), Britain’s leading investment company for lending to the private sector, so far plans to tap the international capital markets in 1987 for roughly the same amount as in 1986. That will provide 3i with around 200 million for onlending. This, plus its rapidly growing equity investments, will allow 3i to keep up the same volume of total investment in UK industry, about 350 million.
But these plans may be revised upwards if the Thatcher government’s recent projections for industry come about.
