LONDON - A downturn in British construction deepened last month, according to a survey on Wednesday that showed the commercial and civil engineering sectors contracting at the fastest in around 10 years ahead of Brexit.
The IHS Markit/CIPS UK Construction Purchasing Managers’ Index fell to 43.3 from 45.0 in August, below all forecasts in a Reuters poll of 17 economists that had pointed to an unchanged reading. Britain is due to leave the European Union on Oct. 31, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said he is prepared to leave without a deal if necessary, despite being ordered by parliament to seek a delay if he cannot negotiate acceptable terms.
Overall, the data added to signs that businesses are struggling to make longer-term plans due to the risk of a disruptive no-deal Brexit in the coming years, although consumer spending has held up well.
