Growth in Merseyside during 2022 continues to decline, unable to meet the precedent set in 2020.

Despite the number of new incorporations increasing from 13,108 in 2021 to 13.358 in 2022, growth in Merseyside falls for the second year in a row at 4.1%, somewhat below the national growth rate of 4.6%.

Nevertheless, the county maintains a strong 9th position on the company formation league table, remaining a popular location for business entrepreneurs.
