WIFO-Konjunkturtest

The WIFO-Konjunkturtest (business cycle survey) is a monthly survey of Austrian companies on their economic situation and its development in the coming months. The results of the WIFO-Konjunkturtest help to reliably assess the economic development in Austria at an early stage. The WIFO-Konjunkturtest has been conducted since 1954 and has been part of the "Joint Harmonised EU Programme of Business and Consumer Surveys" since 1996.

Die Konjunkturbeurteilungen der österreichischen Unternehmen verbesserten sich im Dezember leicht. Der WIFO-Konjunkturklimaindex notierte mit 5,6 Punkten (saisonbereinigt) 1,4 Punkte über dem Wert des Vormonats (4,2 Punkte). Der Anstieg ist in erster Linie auf die Verbesserung der Lageeinschätzungen zurückzuführen. Der Lageindex stieg um 2,8 Punkte auf 10,3 Punkte. Die unternehmerische Unsicherheit blieb weiterhin überdurchschnittlich. Dementsprechend blieben die Konjunkturerwartungen vorsichtig und signalisieren eine Fortsetzung der schwachen Konjunkturdynamik.

Economic Assessments Stabilise at the End of the Year. Results of the WIFO-Konjunkturtest (Business Cycle Survey) of December 2022
The economic assessments of Austrian companies improved slightly in December. The WIFO Business Climate Index stood at 5.6 points (seasonally adjusted), 1.4 points above the value of the previous month (4.2 points). The increase is primarily due to the improvement in situation assessments. The situation index rose by 2.8 points to 10.3 points. Business uncertainty remained above average. Accordingly, economic expectations remained cautious, signalling a continuation of the weak economic momentum.
