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. Most of the managers in all sectors of the economy expect that prices would keep their levels in the next 3 months.
Rise of the index has been reported for the first time since September. In January, it was 81.1 points compared to 79.1 points at the end of 2020. Eurostat reports that there has been a slight decline in consumer and business expectations in January.
