Belgium Consumer Confidence Improves For First Time In 7 Months
(RTTNews) - Belgium's consumer confidence rose for the first time in seven months in June, survey data from the National Bank of Belgium showed Friday.
The consumer confidence rose to -6 from -8 in May, marking the first increase since December. The reading was the highest in four months.
The strengthening of consumer confidence is mainly due to a markedly less pessimistic outlook among consumers regarding unemployment in Belgium, the bank said.
