ICE consolidates the four sectoral confidence indices measured by the FGV: industry, commerce, services and construction.

The Expectations Index, which measures businessmen’s confidence in the future, rose 1.9 points to 87.9 points. The Current Situation Index, which evaluates the perception of entrepreneurs about the present, dropped 1 point and reached 89.9 points, the lowest level since February last year (88.1 points).

The increase in the ICE in February was driven by trade confidence, which grew by 3 points. Despite the progress, the sector continues to have the lowest confidence index among the four segments surveyed (85.8 points).

The construction sector also rose (0.8 points), which remains the segment with the greatest confidence (94.4 points).

On the other hand, industry retreated 1.1 points and reached 92 points, while services fell 0.4 points and reached 89.2 points.
