Economic Sentiment Indicators (May)

The EC’s Economic Sentiment Indicators for Central and Eastern Europe were a mixed bag in May, but there were some encouraging signs that industrial sentiment has started to improve and that price pressures may be nearing a peak. Sentiment may stabilise from here, but with spillovers from the war in Ukraine continuing to take its toll we don’t expect a large rebound for some time, which supports our below-consensus GDP growth forecasts this year.
