The HCCI Institute for Economic and Enterprise Research (IEER) business climate survey in July 2014 shows that the level of business confidence in Hungary continued to improve compared to that seen in the previous quarter, and that for three consecutive quarters a rising business confidence was detected. The IEER Quarterly Business Climate Index rose from the April level of 10 points to 18 points. The current 18 points is the highest level recorded since the beginning of the research (2005) and the last time a similar level was reached was at the beginning of 2011 (in January 2011 it reached 16 points). The Uncertainty Index level of 35 points is one point lower than the value in April; this indicates stagnation in uncertainty following a sharp rise at the beginning of the year. The current level is below the values recorded one or two years before (in July 2013 it was 37 points; in July 2012 it was 42 points). In addition, the value of the Uncertainty Index indicates that the current trend is not uniform within the private sector, and that the recovery will continue to be confined to one part of the economy and will not be felt by all companies.
