In autumn 2013, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) commissioned AGFE, in partnership with Experian, to:
- research how much cash was being held and by whom
- research whether there was any evidence of cash holdings being excessive i.e. ‘hoarding’
- examine the relationship between firms’ cash holdings, their businesses’ finances and their capital stocks
