The confidence index
Make a comment on this indicator
Methodology:
The Board of Trade’s
member confidence index measures the level of confidence of Board
of Trade member companies on a scale of 1 to 5.
The index is based on the
answers to a four-question survey that we conduct quarterly (during
the first week of March, June, September, and December) among Board
of Trade members.
The answers are then weighted to take the composition of the Board
of Trade’s membership into account.
With this graph, you also have the option of viewing each survey
question individually to see the degree of member confidence
related to each one.
