up on 2017 activity and significantly more than the pipeline of
1.5m sq ft per annum between 2015 to 2017. The increase in
volume under construction is also due to three years of strong
activity in the sector, resulting in the continued delivery of
schemes that commenced back in 2016 and 2017. This is reflected
in the relatively low completion figure of 450,000 sq ft delivered
during 2018.

 To put the sentiment about Brexit into context, 54 of the FTSE 100
 companies have cited Brexit as their principal risk or the cause of
 broader risk around market and economic uncertainty. Only one
 identified climate change as their principal risk. Deloitte’s Annual
 Report Insights 20187 shows how the largest businesses are
 managing the challenges they are currently faced with.

 Nonetheless, based on the pipeline supply under construction and
 scale of deals in 2018, Manchester has so far remained resilient
 despite Brexit uncertainty. This is helped by the growth of tech
 businesses in the regional centre. The efforts to position the city
 as a go-to location for growth sector occupiers are now being
 realised, and further high profile new office starts are anticipated in
 2019 in areas such as Circle Square, NOMA and St John’s.
