This has led to the establishment of a thriving finance industry in the town, with a number of major banks and financial institutions having branches in Braintree.

The discovery of oil in the North Sea in the 1970s led to a further strengthening of the town's economy and the development of its motor sport industry. This has seen a number of motor racing teams and circuits being established in the town, with a number of international motor racing events being held in Braintree.
