The confidence of the construction sector in the European Union has remained negative in 2023 and 2024. Nevertheless, the indicator values are not as low as during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Lower values signal that respondents expect construction activity to decline, if they are negative, that means that most of the respondents had negative expectations. Some of the leading construction companies in Europe are Vinci (France), ACS (Spain) and Bouygues (France).

Supplementary notes
These figures show the share of respondents that had negative, neutral, or positive expectations for the construction industry measured against each other. That means that if 60% of respondents had negative expectations, and 40% of them had positive expectations, the indicator would be calculated as the balance of these two figures: Balance = 40% - 60%. This would result in a negative figure.
