Analyst at Hantec Markets Richard Perry spoke to Proactive Investors on
the eve of Chancellor Philip Hammond's first Autumn Statement.
On the subject of corporation tax, Perry says: ''It looks already as though Hammond has dismissed 15% as George Osborne had suggested. I think it's more likely to be he'll be dragging it lower to 17% by the end of this Parliament. That's still a fairly sizeable cut - we're already running one of the lowest corporation taxes in the OECD''.
On what businesses will be looking out for he added: ''Companies like spending plans to go higher, they like infrastructure spending to start generating more confidence in the economy''.
Perry went on to say there's also a possibility they may cut stamp duty on houses to help regenerate the housing market which seems to be slowing a little bit.
