As experienced IndependentFinancial Advisors Enable have seen that confidence is vital to recovery and for some reason we Brits find that hard. In a recent poll just one in ten Britons (9%) expect their local economy to improve in the next six months, half the level seen in America according to new research from and online survey conducted in 24 countries.
Managing Director, Ipsos MORI, Bobby Duffy, said:
“With all the frenzied talk of a global meltdown it’s easy to miss that there are actually large parts of the world economy that are still feeling pretty confident about the future. And this is not just Brazil, India and China – the majority in many other countries like Canada, Australia and Saudi Arabia also feel their economy will improve in the next few months. Even within Europe, which does face real dangers in the coming months, there is a stark difference between high confidence countries (like Sweden and Germany) and low confidence countries (like the UK and France).
Only the Hungarians (6%), Japanese (6%), Belgians (4%) and the French (2%) are more pessimistic about the future of their local economy than the Brits. Even the Spanish are more optimistic than Britons (17%). By the far the most optimistic of the 24 countries are the Brazilians with 72% expecting improvement.
Enable of Bishop’s Stortford would like to play their part in helping you to be less gloomy about 2012, as we know consumer confidence has a direct relationship with real economic outcomes.
