Survey Procedure and Methodology
The Financial Market Survey CEE is a survey carried out among financial market experts by the Mannheim Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) and Erste Group Bank AG, Vienna. The target of this survey is to develop indicators describing economic conditions in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) as well as in Austria.
The CEE region observed in the survey consists of Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and, since October 2010, Turkey.
Financial experts are surveyed about their assessment of the current business situation, the medium-term prospects of the respective economies and their expectations as to the development of the inflation rate, the short- and long-term interest rates, exchange rates and stock prices on a six-month time horizon. The analysts’ assessments reflect the qualitative direction of the estimated changes.
