The overall business climate indicator in Bulgaria has increased in April by 1.1 points compared to March to a level of 21.5, the National Statistical Institute announced. An improvement in the indicator was registered in industry by 4.8 points to 19.3. Due to expected low activity and increase in the prices of materials in construction, a decrease in business expectations was observed by 2.5 points to 21.7. A decrease in the business climate was also recorded in the services sector by 1.7 points to 10.7. In retail trade, the indicator remained at the March level of 36.5 points.
