Subdued start to Q2 for UK consumer spending
Consumer spending fell in April, contrasting with marked growth seen in each of the previous three months. The Visa Europe: UK Expenditure Index, which is derived from card spending data, adjusted for factors such as changes in card usage and inflation, signaled a 2.5% drop in spending compared to March, the largest monthly decline since last October.
