Carillion's debt-fueled expansion suffered with rising rates, as a 1% increase added millions to servicing costs. Inflation, like a 6.5% rise in 2024 for construction, squeezed profits and fixed-price contracts. Currency volatility and poor cash flow, with £900M debt in 2017, proved devastating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tbl_prdct orange_head blur_tbl\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFactor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eImpact\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eData\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGDP Growth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlows project demand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUK 2023: 0.1%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterest Rates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncreased borrowing costs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1% rise added millions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInflation (Construction)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReduced profit margins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2024: 6.5%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbutton class=\"get_full_prdct_green\" onclick=\"get_full()\"\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container_new_design\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-section text-1_new_design\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"frst_big_letter_heading\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"frst_big_letter_letter green\"\u003eS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"frst_big_letter_text\"\u003eociological factors\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-wrapper orange\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"sub-highlight-box\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-icon\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"\/cdn\/shop\/files\/PESTLE-Content-Social-Box-Icon-Color-1.svg\" alt=\"Icon\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorkforce and Employment Practices\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarillion's extensive UK workforce faced major job insecurity due to the company's collapse.
