No verified figures for this release right now — the consensus forecast and previous reading appear here whenever this event is on the current week's live calendar. We do not show placeholder numbers.

What it is

The ifo Institute surveys around 9,000 German firms on their current situation and six-month expectations, distilling the responses into the most-watched business-confidence index in the euro area.

Why it matters to traders

As a forward-looking sentiment gauge for Europe's largest economy, the ifo index often moves the euro ahead of the hard data it anticipates. A rising expectations component signals firms see recovery ahead.
