Peter Crossley, Broadway Malyan鈥檚 managing director, said: 鈥淭he swift collapse of confidence and activity after the peak of the banking crisis in September 2008 saw a remarkable turnaround in the market, to which we needed to react. It takes time and it costs money to adjust to new market circumstances and the second half of last year was painful for us.鈥�

Despite the problems, the firm ended the year with shareholders鈥� funds of 拢5m, which was up from 拢4.7m last year. The highest paid director took home 拢376,425, which was down slightly on 拢383,426 in 2008.

Looking to the future, Crossley added: 鈥淲e think that there is every reason to be concerned about the market in the UK as fiscal stimulus is withdrawn during the next year and public sector spending is slashed. We are therefore investing in further expansion in Asia, growing our global masterplanning and urban design teams, building on our strong roots in health and education and selling these skills internationally.鈥�
