Scotland’s family businesses have been among the hardest hit by the pandemic, according to KPMG’s Global Family Business Report, which surveyed almost 3,000 family-owned firms around the world.
Of the Scottish business leaders questioned, 80% said Covid-19 has affected revenues – 11% higher than the global average.
Described in the report as the backbone of the Scottish economy, the top 100 family-run firms alone employ more than 112,000 people and generate turnover in excess of £20bn.
KPMG Private Enterprise has partnered with Insider to dig deeper into this sector, finding out how family businesses have been coping during the coronavirus crisis and what the future holds in store.
