Weak pound helps send Arup's income soaring by 20%

摘要

Arup reaped the reward of a weak pound last year, with the engineer saying close to half its one-fifth rise in turnover was down to sterling's fall. The firm, which now has more than 13,000 staff worldwide, said income for the year to March 2017 was up 22% to £1.5bn. Chairman Gregory Hodkinson said around 9.5% of the hike was due to the weakening pound.
