Nakama Group plc (AIM:NAK), a UK£1.85M small-cap, operates in the professional services industry, whose performance is linked to business conditions and the general economy, as it draws revenue from industries across different sectors. The sector also relies on the performance of general construction industries, financial and business service industries, and the mining sector as these generate a large proportion of the sector’s revenue. Professional services analysts are forecasting for the entire industry, a fairly unexciting growth rate of 7.22% in the upcoming year , and a strong near-term growth of 24.92% over the next couple of years. This rate is larger than the growth rate of the UK stock market as a whole. Is now the right time to pick up some shares in professional services companies?
