Secondo lo ZEW, le prospettive economiche rimangono ferme a un livello massimo.
The latest evaluation of Germany's current economic situation experienced a minor decrease of 1.5 points, reaching -75.3 points. This decline is believed to be due to an unexpected surge in the inflation rate in May, which exceeded general expectations, as stated by ZEW President Achim Wambach. The inflation rate compared to the previous year was 2.6%.
The economic assessment from experts and professionals in the Eurozone was more straightforward: it increased by 4.3 points to now 55.6 points. The evaluation of the current economic situation in the Eurozone remains constant at -38.6 points.
The ZEW reaches out to experts and professionals from banks, insurance companies, and financial departments of large companies on a monthly basis to collect their assessments of key international financial market data.

The ZEW Index is considered a significant predictor for Germany's future economic growth.
