Consumer Confidence Index

In an effort to gauge the likelihood of incoming tourism per country to Greece, the Greek Tourism Confederation’s (SETE) Intelligence unit has incorporated the Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) in its analytics arsenal.

Confidence in Turkey's economy rebounded in February after a two-month dip, the Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK) reported on Feb. 27.

The Economic Confidence Index surged 6.8 percent to 91.5 in February compared to last month, TÜİK said in a statement.        

Few Greeks can afford to splash out on items beyond their daily needs, according to GfK's consumer sentiment survey for the last quarter of 2016 that was released on Thursday.

Turkey's economic confidence regressed to 85.7 in January with a 3.9 percent decrease compared to the previous month, data from the Turkish Statistics Institute showed on Jan. 30. 

The decrease in the economic confidence index mainly stemmed from the decline in services, real sector, construction and retail trade confidence indices. 

Turkey's economic confidence index increased month-on-month in January, according to an official data released on Jan. 23.

The index was up by 5.6 percent to 66.9 compared to last month, the Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK) said in a report.      

The financial situation expectations of households index also increased by 2.9 percent reaching 87.9 since December.      

Confidence in Turkey's economy weakened among consumers  and businesses in December, according to Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK) on Dec. 29.

The Economic Confidence Index decreased by 18.5 percent in December (TÜİK) said in a statement.

The economic climate in Greece has deteriorated in November after 3 consecutive months of positive data, according to the Foundation for Economic & Industrial Research (IOBE) index.

Turkey's economic confidence rose more than 20 percent in September, recovering from a six-month low hit in August, data from the Turkish Statistics Institute (TÜİK) showed on Sept. 29.
The index was at 87.8 in September, after falling to 72.7 in August, the data showed. The index indicates an optimistic economic outlook when above 100 and a pessimistic one when below 100.

Consumer confidence declined to its lowest point in three-and-a-half years in April, which the Foundation for Economic and Industrial Research (IOBE) attributes to the high levels of uncertainty resulting from the ongoing bailout review and the social security and tax reform bills.

Confidence in the Turkish economy has rebounded sharply in March after a three-month decline, according to official data released on March 25.

The Economic Confidence index rose 9.5 percent compared with the previous month, from 71.46 points in February to 78.27 points in March, the Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜ?K) said in a report.
