In January, the overall business climate indicator rose by 6.9 percentage points in comparison to December. According to the National Statistical Institute, growth has been marked in all sectors - industry, construction, retail and services. Optimism comes from rising number of orders and improving condition of enterprises. However, the unstable economic environment remains a major problem for businesses.
