Other services survey, 2026Q1

Date Uploaded: March 19 2026 10:00


Other Services confidence declined by 14 points to 55 in the first quarter of 2026. Though this is a statistically significant decline, at 55, confidence remains comfortably above both the 2025 average and the long-run average. The results suggest that the decline in confidence largely reflects a normalisation from the exceptionally strong fourth quarter rather than a broad deterioration in the sector.
