Business Start-up Data Service
Today’s business start-ups generate tomorrow’s business growth.
Small businesses are the bedrock of our economy, accounting for nearly half of the United Kingdom’s output. At a time of change, it has never been more important to measure today’s business start-ups.
Working in partnership with the British Bankers Association, BankSearch collects data on start-ups from the main high street banks and provides comprehensive and timely data on company formations across the country.
The monthly data includes information about start-ups geographic location, industrial classification and the firm’s legal status.

Your data is valued here at the Council
The Chief Economist Unit has been using the BankSearch data since December 2009, and has found it invaluable in tracking business start-ups during the recession, and adding additional value to existing data sets on new business starts. It has been especially useful in understanding the number of new ‘not for profit’ businesses as well as sole traders, and in tracking new business starts in deprived/non-deprived and urban/rural areas. It is currently being utilised in briefings to Yorkshire Forward’s Board, government and MPs, as well as supporting the delivery of enterprise support through Business Link.
On 7th June 2013, Prime Minister, David Cameron, used the BankSearch Business Start-up Data in a speech at a Conference in Scotland.
