Businesses are optimistic in 2017

The expectations of the companies are on historic peak. After the tax and contribution reduction plan the K&H SME confidence index reached its highest result of the past 12 years. It is currently 11 points.

The main driver behind the unprecedented optimism could be the announcement of taxes and contributions reduction that was announced shortly before the survey. The index after the 2011 nadir is growing trendfully, and this is only the third time in its history that the index is above zero level”- Kovács Viktor Zoltán, K&H’s SME marketing department manager said.
