Fundamental view

Australia

The National Australia Bank (NAB) Business Confidence index probably rose to +7 last month, according to the median analysts projection. In March, the index stood at +4.

The indicator is a survey of the current state of the business sector in Australia. It is based on inquiries to hundreds of businesses of all sizes . National Australia Bank uses these statistics and submits monthly and quarterly reports . Companies are asked about the value of new orders, trading conditions , sales related to exports , profits and costs. Values above zero indicate that more companies expect their business to grow in a positive direction than those who expect it to evolve in a negative direction. The quarterly report has a bigger influence, because it covers a large volume of data and additional questions about the expectations of the participants in the study.

The National Australia Bank is scheduled to release official data at 1:30 GMT on Monday.
