UK consumer confidence remains stable in March

GfK's long-running Consumer Confidence Index remains stable at -6 in March. Three of the five measures stayed at the same level and two measures saw increases.

Joe Staton, Head of Market Dynamics at GfK, says:

"No real upsets this month as the Barometer continues to bump along in negative territory. Consumers remain cagey about the state of their personal finances and the general economic picture for the UK, especially as wage growth fails to keep pace with the rising costs of living. Since the Brexit referendum, household spending has been a big driver of growth, so any slump will dent future economic prospects. However, if we carry on shopping, as seen by the uptick in the Major Purchase Index, then forecasts for a post-Trigger/pre-Brexit slowdown could be proved wrong."
