Reino Unido Confiança do Consumidor

The GfK Consumer Confidence Index for the UK climbed to -17 in August 2025 from -19 in July, the strongest reading in a year, supported by the Bank of England’s recent interest rate cut. Still, worries over sticky inflation, rising unemployment, and potential tax hikes continued to cloud sentiment. Households grew more optimistic about their personal finances, with sentiment improving three points for both the past 12 months (to -4) and the year ahead (to +5). Views on the country’s economic situation over the past year rose two points to -42, though still seven points below last August. Expectations for the next 12 months slipped one point to -30, 15 points weaker than a year earlier. Meanwhile, the major purchase index, reflecting confidence in big-ticket spending, rose two points to -13.
