The Marketing & Sales sector's average payment score of 69.8 is significantly better than the UK average, indicating generally good payment practices.

Welsh data is based on only one company so is not statistically relevant. While London has the bulk of the companies analysed (67), its average of 70.4 is held back by the bad payers, while Yorkshire & The Humber, with just 3 companies, gets to a score of 85.2. The South East’s average of 63.9 across 5 companies puts it significantly below London's performance, despite being geographically close.

The stark contrast between KR Media UK Limited's 0/100 and Rapport Outdoor Limited's and Huge UK Limited's 99.8/100 suggests that, despite an overall respectable sector average, consistently late payments may still be a significant issue for some businesses.
