EU economic sentiment (European Commission)

Changed on

The European Commission economic sentiment indicator, monthly, for the EU members, the euro area, the EU (EU27_2020) and the EU candidate countries, from the Commission's harmonised business and consumer surveys as Eurostat publishes it (dataset ei_bssi_m_r2). The value is an index whose long-term average is 100, a weighted composite of the confidence of industry, services, consumers, retail trade and construction, seasonally adjusted: above 100 is sentiment above its long-term average. Each row is dated by its survey month, not its release date. A month with no value is null, never zero, and flag marks provisional or estimated values. Data for other countries is not served. A non-empty answer is cached for a day. Processed by Sugra; every answer carries the credit Source: the Eurostat dataset DOI, the access date.
