CECE Business Barometer

Every month CECE asks around 220 senior European construction equipment industry representatives about their opinion on the state of industry. The objective is to obtain a regular business trend indicator and describe the economic climate.

The CECE Business Climate Index summarizes the survey answers on the evaluation of the current business situation and the expectations for the next 6 months regarding sales.

While detailed results including all questions are exclusively available for participants, a summary is available to all CECE members quarterly.

Forth Quarter Summary:

After a very successful bauma exhibition and a slightly less tense supply chain, business climate in the European construction equipment industry bounced back in November. Both current business evaluation and future expectations saw a pick up, as most market regions see a friendlier scenario.

Highest hopes still concentrate on North America. In Europe, CEE markets and France are currently seen most positive, but there is also an optimistic majority for Nordic markets, Germany, and Italy. With an improved ability to deliver machines, industry order backlog is reduced slightly but remains on high levels.
