FX.co ★ Belgium Consumer Confidence at 2021-Highs

Belgium's consumer confidence indicator saw a significant increase in January 2026, reaching a level of 4, marking the highest point since October 2021. This is a notable rise from the previous month's figure of -1. The boost in confidence is largely attributed to an increase in households' ability to save (rising from 22 to 26) and a substantial decrease in unemployment concerns (falling from -9 to -20). While households hold a slightly less optimistic view regarding Belgium’s overall economic climate (-29 compared to -28), they express a modestly more favorable outlook on their personal financial circumstances (-2 compared to -3).
