Business Climate Indicator broadly unchanged in September
In September 2013, the Business Climate Indicator (BCI) for the euro area remained broadly unchanged at -0.20. Managers' production expectations, as well as their appraisal of export order books and, to a lesser extent, overall order books and the stocks of finished products improved. These positive developments were counterbalanced by a significantly more negative assessment of past production.

The next BCI results are due to be published on 30 October 2013.
Full details of the Business Climate Indicator are available on the Europa website.
