Burnham faces Britain's overseas business woes

UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham aims to strengthen British business, but companies are shifting operations to the US and Asia due to the UK's weak economic growth and capital markets. Major firms like Reckitt Benckiser, AstraZeneca, and GSK derive significant revenue from overseas markets, while the UK lags in startup valuations compared to the US. The government and London Stock Exchange are offering incentives to retain businesses, but challenges persist.
