FNB/BER Consumer Confidence Index

A quarterly report that contains the latest reading of the FNB/BER Consumer Confidence Index as well as a brief discussion on the implications of the results. Detailed data on consumer confidence is provided, disaggregated by income category and population group.

The FNB/BER Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) combines the results of three questions posed to adults living in predominantly urban areas in South Africa, namely the expected performance of the economy, the expected financial position of households and the rating of the appropriateness of the present time to buy durable goods, such as furniture, appliances and electronic equipment. Consumer confidence is expressed as a net balance, which is calculated as the percentage of respondents expecting an improvement / good time to buy durable goods less the percentage expecting a deterioration / bad time to buy durable goods.
