Consumer confidence drops in June, business confidence rises - Istat

Consumer confidence in Italy dropped

in June, while business confidence rose, Istat said Friday.

Consumer confidence is estimated to decrease in June 2026 (from

93.4 to 92.4), while the composite indicator of business

confidence is estimated to increase (from 94.2 to 95.2).

Istat said that "almost all the variables included in the

calculation of consumer confidence are deteriorating: the

exceptions are expectations about the general economic

situation, unemployment, and opinions about the advisability of

saving in the current phase."

"The improvement in business confidence is evident in all

sectors, albeit to varying degrees," Istat added.
