As a result of recent business tendency survey in the industry, business expectations have deteriorated. Manages expect decrease in production growth during next 3 months. The share of managers who consider the regulatory climate to be an obstacle to the production growth increased from 39.9% to 48.5%. The index of expected changes in business conditions has deceased by 26 points. This was due to the simultaneous decrease of "optimists" (from 32.2% to 17.1%) and increase of "pessimists" (from 16.7% to 31.8%).
The survey is conducted quarterly to monitor the assessments and expectations of managers regarding changes in the business environment in general and the performance of enterprises.
