Latest data release by UBS AG - 27 Dec 2017

  • Prior revised to 1.68

Prior number was revised higher, so shows a slight fall - but still relatively decent.

The indicator is a signal of private consumption trends in the Swiss economy. It is derived from six consumer-related parameters: new car registrations, business activity in the retail sector, the number of domestic overnight hotel stays by Swiss residents, the consumer sentiment index, employment figures and credit card transactions made via UBS at points of sale in Switzerland.
