Strongest Rise in Welsh New Business Since March 2023
Welsh businesses saw a further rise in output during June, according to the latest Cymru Growth Tracker data from NatWest, but growth in activity slowed despite a sharper upturn in new sales. At 50.5 in June, the headline Wales Business Activity Index – a seasonally adjusted index that measures the month-on-month change in the combined output of the region's manufacturing and service sectors – fell from 51.5 in May, to signal only a slight expansion in output at Welsh private sector firms. Meanwhile, the rate of increase in new orders accelerated to the sharpest in over two years. Despite more favourable demand conditions, firms were less confident in the outlook for output over the coming year and registered another strong fall in employment. On the price front, input costs and output charges increased at softer rates in June. Although still historically elevated, output prices rose at the weakest pace since October 2024. Sebastian Burnside, Chief Economist of NatWest Group, summarised the report's findings for Business News Wales: Jessica Shipman, Chair, NatWest Cymru Regional Board, said: 'Business conditions appear to be improving for Welsh firms, as new order growth accelerated to the fastest in over two years and companies raised their output levels in turn. That said, the rise in activity was only slight. At the same time, previous hikes to the Minimum Wage and National Insurance contributions continued to weigh on business decisions as employment contracted again and confidence in the outlook was dampened amid concerns regarding client spending, and efforts to control costs. 'Inflationary pressures eased further from the recent highs seen in April, meanwhile. In a bid to drive sales, selling prices rose at the weakest rate since last October, as firms noted prioritising competitiveness over protecting their margins. In fact, of the 12 monitored UK nations and areas, only Yorkshire & Humber recorded a slower uptick in charges.' Performance in relation to UK The rate of output growth was slower than the UK average. Anecdotal evidence suggested that stronger demand conditions supported the upturn, however. Private sector firms in Wales signalled a second successive monthly expansion in new orders during June. The pace of growth quickened notably to the steepest in over two years. Moreover, the rise in new sales was the second-fastest of the 12 monitored UK nations and regions (behind the East of England). As well as being below the long-run series average, the level of optimism was the second-weakest of the 12 monitored UK nations and areas, ahead of only the North East. Surveyed firms stated that customer uncertainty and reduced client spending weighed on positive sentiment. A higher cost to employ staff following hikes to the Minimum Wage and National Insurance contributions reportedly led to cost-cutting initiatives and a reduction in headcounts. Of the 12 monitored UK nations and areas, Welsh firms recorded one of the sharpest drops in employment. The pace of job shedding eased, however, to the slowest since last November. Despite a rise in new orders, firms were able to continue working through their backlogs during June. The rate of depletion was among the slowest in over a year, having softened from that seen in May. Nonetheless, the pace of decline was strong overall and quicker than the UK average. Panellists mentioned that greater prices for raw materials and higher transportation fees coincided with the further impact of hikes in wage bills and labour costs on balance sheets. That said, the pace of input price inflation eased to the slowest in 2025 to date and was weaker than the UK average. At the same time, the rate of increase in output charges softened as firms opted to remain competitive and drive new sales rather than protect margins. The pace of inflation was the least marked since October 2024. Moreover, of the 12 monitored UK nations and areas, only Yorkshire & Humber recorded a slower hike in output charges.

Conference to Focus on Use of Welsh Language in the Workplace
A conference in Cardiff is set to include more than 200 representatives of organisations operating in Wales gathering to discuss how to develop and improve the use of the Welsh language in the workplace. The event, which has been jointly organised by the Welsh Language Commissioner and the National Centre for Learning Welsh, aims to share good practice and promote new ways of working that put the Welsh language at the heart of working life. According to Osian Llywelyn, Deputy Welsh Language Commissioner, there is a strong desire to have this discussion: 'In our five-year strategic plan we have identified the development of the Welsh language in the workplace as one of our three priority areas. We see this as an area that could make a significant difference to the usage of the Welsh language and make it a natural language for day-to-day use in organisations across Wales. 'As we look ahead to the coming years, it is more important than ever that organisations put the Welsh language at the heart of their plans. It is pleasing, therefore, to see the significant interest in this conference, and the willingness to work together in order to develop new plans for the future.' Dona Lewis, Chief Executive of the National Centre for Learning Welsh, said: 'The Centre specialises in language learning and acquisition, and has seen huge growth in the numbers of people learning Welsh. In 2023-24, it was announced that 18,330 people had completed its courses, an increase of 45% since the Centre was established in 2016. 'One of the Centre's strategic priorities is to support employers to increase the use of Welsh, and it does this through its 'Work Welsh/Cymraeg Gwaith' programme, which was established in 2018. This is one of the Centre's most successful programmes, and over 2,000 employers have benefited from the services offered. The programme meets the requirements of a range of sectors and workplaces, including Health and Care, and Sport. More recently, the Centre is leading on a national Learn Welsh programme for the Education Workforce. 'By working in partnership, we look forward to attracting even more people to the Welsh language and supporting them to use and enjoy the language in their work and everyday life.' The conference will be held at Cardiff City stadium and is expected to attract over 200 attendees. One of the contributors will be Manon Humphreys from Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales who will talk about how the Welsh language is at the core of their work: 'I very much welcome the opportunity to contribute to this important conference. It's good for us as organisations to be able to come together to learn lessons and identify new ideas about how to include and promote the Welsh language practically in our work settings. 'From my perspective I am looking forward to presenting our hope in terms of the Welsh language at Amgueddfa Cymru while at the same time hearing from others about their plans and hopefully it will lead to new partnerships or opportunities – which can only be beneficial for the Welsh language.'
