Across the globe experts remain satisfied and cautiously optimistic

Globally, experts are generally happy with their country's economic situation, resulting in a Global Satisfaction Score of +37%, predominantly driven by North America (+61%). Dropping from 49% in Q2, it remained stable in the second half of the year (Q3,: +35%). Most satisfied with their current situation are countries found in Western Europe. Swiss and Dutch experts report net Satisfaction Scores of +98% and +88% respectively with Germany at +70%. These remain comparable to previous quarters. The least satisfied countries can be found in Latin America, with a -43% net Satisfaction Score for this region. But this does not dampen the Global Outlook Score this quarter, as it is now at +4% compared to -3% in Q3. This change has been particularly driven by renewed and increased confidence in Australia, China, Germany, the UK and the U.S.

Strong election result sees stability brought back to the UK

After a period of Brexit uncertainty, the result of the UK election seems to have given business experts in the UK some clarity. The UK saw the biggest individual change in their Outlook Score. When asked if they expected the economy to improve or deteriorate over the next 6 months, for Q3 the UK had the lowest net outlook score (-56%). This has shifted to +5% in Q4. This rapid improvement has been mirrored throughout individual aspects of the economy. Especially political stability, which saw the most drastic swing. The score improved by 68 percentage points from negative 49% in Q3 to positive 19% in Q4. Also, for capital expenditure, which was -24% in Q3 and rose to +15% in Q4. Even though all other aspects of the economy that were measured, saw an improvement, they remained with negative Outlook Scores. There is still some work to be done to convince UK experts they are out of the woods, just yet.

Brazilian progress marches on

Although Brazilian experts remain dissatisfied with their current situation, it is improving, showing their positive outlook over the past quarters has been justified. Brazilian experts reported a Satisfaction Score of -51% in Q3 this has now increased to -26% in Q4. For their Outlook Score, experts continue to be optimistic, seeing their Outlook Score increase from +47% in Q3 to +53% in Q4, with only Indonesian experts more optimistic (+67%). With regards to individual aspects of the economy, Brazilian experts are the most positive in their outlook for consumer confidence (+71%), employment rate (+68%) and international trade (+53%).

Despite continued optimism, South Asian countries see their satisfaction drop

Despite experts from Indonesia and India being the most optimistic about their future over the last 3 quarters, their current Satisfaction Scores have dropped the furthest in Q4, compared to all other countries measured. India and Indonesia Satisfaction Scores have fallen by 24 and 22 percentage points, respectively. Indonesia has a Satisfaction Score of +31% this quarter, but India sees a negative Satisfaction Score for the first time in 2019 (-2%). However, their drop in satisfaction has not changed their positive outlook. Indonesia has increased their Outlook Score from +59% in Q3 to +67% in Q4. Although India has seen a drop in Outlook from Q3 (+48%), they remain amongst the top 3 optimistic countries for Q4, scoring +39%.

After initial optimism, there is huge concern over Italy’s political stability

In Q3 Italian experts saw the largest increase in their Outlook Score, coinciding with the formation of the new coalition government. However Italian experts’ Satisfaction Score with political stability this quarter is now -79% and the Outlook Score for political stability over the next 6 months has plummeted from +10% in Q3 to the lowest of any country measured, -53% in Q4. Italian expert’s overall satisfaction has also dropped from -51% in Q3 to -63% in Q4 and their Outlook Score has swung back to negative, going from +9% in Q3 to -2% in Q4

Spanish experts are the most pessimistic

Experts in Spain predict a gloomy six months. Spanish experts report an Outlook Score of -41% in this quarter, the worst of any country. This is 15 percentage points less than in Q3 (-27%). Their current satisfaction remains negative at -5%, dropping 4 percentage points from Q3 (-1%). Areas experts are especially worried about over the next 6 months are, economic stability and employment rate, both scoring -34%.

Global Satisfaction Score

24

Condensing expert judgement from business professionals all over the world

Each quarter, business professionals are asked to report on their satisfaction with the current economic situation of their country and the overall economic outlook for the next 6 months. They are also asked for their current satisfaction and outlook for individual categories: employment rate, consumer demand and confidence, strength of the local currency, international trade, political stability, economic stability and capital expenditure and investments.

The experts who participate are generally businesspeople in leading positions at their companies and have at least ten years of experience. They are recruited through the Atheneum expert network.

Net scores capture a balanced view of the entire economy

The expert evaluations are converted into net scores by subtracting the share of negative evaluations from the share of positive evaluations. To create the overall Global Scores each countries scores are weighted by their GDP, the average of which provides the Global Satisfaction Score and the Global Outlook Score.

Methodology changed for this quarter. So direct comparison with data in other published reports will show slight differences.
