Highlights from Room151’s Treasury Investment & Current Affairs Survey 2026 have been collected in a new digital publication, which is now available to read.

The survey offers an influential snapshot of finance officer sentiment, featuring a range of charts visually detailing the results, along with accompanying Room151 analysis, across four sections – treasury investment; financial sustainability; policy and government; and macro-economic/mega trends.

Lee Jagger, client director at CCLA Investment Management, has provided an introduction to the publication. CCLA is also the sponsor of the Treasury Investment & Current Affairs Survey 2026.

Some of the headline results of the survey have so far been revealed in Room151 articles, highlighting concerns over debt write-offs and the growth of exceptional financial support.

Treasury trends, which showed that just over a fifth of councils will need a significant amount of new external borrowing in the next year as they can no longer hold an underborrowed position, were also revealed.
