"It is clear that much like the economy as a whole, consumer confidence is in the doldrums"
- Nick Moon, Director of Social Research at GfK
U.K. consumer confidence remained in the negative territory in April as consumers were mostly pessimistic on the outlook of the country's economy, showed a survey conducted by pollster GfK NOP. An index of sentiment remained unchanged at -31 from March.
"It is clear that much like the economy as a whole, consumer confidence is in the doldrums," said Nick Moon, Director of Social Research at GfK.
"And unfortunately, there are no signs either within the survey or in the recent economic figures to suggest any immediate improvement."
