The read · computed from their figures
Ed Broking LLP's H2 2023 filing put their average at 47 days against stated terms of 7–30 days; 57% of invoices were paid outside agreed terms and 20% took 61 days or longer. Filed 29 Jan 2024.
The direction is faster: from 51 days in H1 2021 to 47 now — 4 days faster across their last 6 reports.

What a 47-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 47-day vs a 7-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

How UK payment reporting works
What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
