- Notes
- The survey's own paired row for this indicator: 'BSIs presented in the above table are realised numbers while the numbers given within parenthesis show the respondents' expectations for the relevant quarter given during the preceding quarter' (the file's footnote (a), paraphrased here to avoid the source's mis-encoded apostrophe). A different, net-balance-style scale from the realised index above it - empirically always negative in this file, roughly -160 to -10 - not an error.
