Argentina Consumer Confidence
In Argentina, the Consumer Confidence Index (ICC - Índice de Confianza del Consumidor) is based on a survey consisting of six questions referring to the perception of current personal financial situation and economic situation in the country; the future economic situation in the short term and in the long term and expectations regarding the purchase of household items and consumption durables, such as vehicles. The index is a weighted average of three regional indexes: Federal Capital (15.9 percent), Countryside (30.7 percent) and Greater Buenos Aires (53.4 percent). The index is based on the proportion of positive and negative answers over the total number of people surveyed. The value of the index would be equal to 100 if all the answers to a specific question were positive, while in the opposite case the value would be equal to 0.
