Business and consumers survey

The Bank of Albania started quarterly business confidence survey (BCS) and consumer confidence survey surveys (CCS) in 2002.  These surveys assess various economic aspects of businesses and consumers, providing useful information for economic analysis and short-term forecasting. The results of business and consumer surveys reflect economic agents’ judgements about past, current and future economic developments.

From the second quarter of 2016, these surveys are conducted in accordance with the Methodology of Harmonised Confidence Surveys ( albanian version). From May 2021, the survey results are published monthly.
