Financial services organisations

There are approximately 9,600 VAT registered financial services firms in the UK, operating more than 34,000 establishments. The majority of firms (97%) are small or medium-sized (SMEs), including nearly 50,000 self-employed individuals. Employment, however, is dominated by a handful of large employers, most notably the high street retail banks.
