This study looks at all companies registered in the East of England and where their total assets are more than GBP8,000,000.
The region has a population of 6.3 million in 2017 with the UK being 66 million.
The region comprises the counties of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. The main towns are Bedford, Luton, Basildon, Peterborough, Southend-on-Sea, Norwich, Ipswich, Colchester, Chelmsford and Cambridge.
The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the key movers and shakers in the East of England corporate sector. Only key data has been isolated, particularly the company’s net worth and total assets, but also its full name, date incorporated, registered office, activities, shareholders, directors (with date of birth, occupation and nationality) and number of employees.
Two indicators of size are used: net worth and total assets. These are preferable to turnover which is influenced by profit margins and whether the companies are capital or labour intensive.
