Weak growth is influencing European consumers

In the past few months, EU countries have demonstrated very varied economic data. Citizens of the individual countries evaluate the economic situation in their country and their own personal situation accordingly. These are the findings of the GfK Consumer Climate Europe survey which provides an overview of the development of economic and income expectations and willingness to buy among consumers in Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain and the UK. These 12 countries account for around 80% of the total population of the 27 EU member states.
