The UK economy has been struggling recently due to High gas prices, rising interest rates and a sluggish trade performance. Business investment has also been weak.
Last week, The International Monetary Fund said Britain would be one of the worst performing major economies in The World this Year , shrinking by 0. 3%.
However, this prediction is slightly better than its previous expectation of a 0. 6% contraction, made in January. And a separate forecast published by the EY Item Club on Monday finds the UK is now expected to grow by 0. 2% this Year - up from a previously forecast contraction of 0. 7%.
Hywel Ball, EY's UK chair, said the economy " seems to be turning a corner, albeit very slowly" but added that The Challenges " haven't gone away overnight".
" Inflation is still in double-digits and energy prices remain historically High . . However, perceptions matter and the fact the economy has been able to outperform expectations could help stir a revival In Business and consumer confidence. "
