(WTIC-AM 1080) -- The Connecticut Business and Industry Association's annual survey finds 70 percent of state firms reported a profit last year.
That is the highest rate since the end of the last recession.
But Marcum LLP Office Managing Partner Michael Brooder says companies are also increasingly worried about the future of the state's economy for a number of reasons.
"The unpredictability of the state legislature, the cost of doing business with the recent acts the legislature passed including paid family medical leave and minimum wage increases, there is a lot of concern around those topics," Brooder said.
Connecticut companies are less concerned about the future of the national economy, than the future of the Connecticut economy, although there were some concerns about the trade war.
More than half of state businesses plan to keep their employment levels the same.
