  • Revenues, cash flow, profits, and spending are all expected to rise.
  • Productivity increases remain high.
  • Headcounts at mid-market companies are rising.
  • Mid-market firms are positioning themselves to grow and globalise.
  • Financing options and access to capital are stabilizing.
  • The strength of the economic recovery is uncertain.
  • Systemic pressure is being caused by government debt.
  • Government decisions and regulatory challenges cause concerns.
