This is the 26th time that the Institute for Economic and Enterprise Research conducts a survey on the business climate among Hungarian enterprises. The survey relies on the answers of 1300-2000 managers and measures their opinion twice a year, every April and October and as such it gives the most extended sample of enterprises in Hungary among the similar business tendency surveys. Our research is part of an Eurochambres survey involving 14 million enterprises.

This time, our database consists the answers of 1869 managers. After the turning-point last October, the anticipations of Hungarian enterprises are continuously ameliorated by April and by October as well: the indicators seem still to be in positive range. However, if we compare our latest results with the findings from April 2010, there can detect only moderated positive tendencies in the anticipations for the near future. While the IEER Business Climate Index stayed at -9% last October, and in April it reached its peak at +14.8%, by October it dropped again and now stays at 10.4%.
