As we go to
print, news is
announced
that the Bank
of England has
lowered interest
rates to a new alltime low of 0.25%. The motivation
behind the decision; to stimulate
consumer spend by offering a
lower rate of interest on loans and
mortgages, which in turn, should
stop or slow down the likelihood of
the country falling into recession
after the BREXIT decision.
»»THE INCENTIVE IS
wholly reliant now on the
individual banking groups
to pass on the percentage
decrease; an activity which
experts are claiming could
take over 2-3 years before
the results of consumer
confidence are seen.
Meanwhile, now is
a good time to look at
different ways of expanding
skills, offering new products
and services, and what
better than spending time
doing all of these activities
in one go by visiting the first
ever Lockex Exhibition.
Lockex will take place on
Friday 16th – Sunday 18th
September at Ricoh Arena,
Coventry and will play
host to over 90 exhibitors,
all exhibiting for the sole
purpose of showcasing
their products and services
aimed at Locksmiths and
Auto-locksmiths.
But, the event offers
much more for those
looking to attend.
Visitors will also have the
opportunity to join in on
the many training sessions
which have been created
by suppliers and experts
from within the industry.
The training subjects
have been areas which
have been chosen by
Locksmiths, so visitors can
guarantee that they will
get much more from the
event.

the bumper Lockex preshow review which starts
