Ipsos’ Global Consumer Confidence Index is stable this month (+0.1 point) and sits at 50.0. The index shows stability after three consecutive months of significant increases. Currently, it sits 1.2 points higher than its reading from the same time last year. Among 30 economies measured, four countries show significant gains in consumer sentiment, and four countries show a notable decline. All four sub-indices show stability this month. Based only on the “legacy 20 countries” tracked since March 2010, the Index would read at 47.5, nearly unchanged (-0.2 point) from January. Sentiment is mixed in Latin America. Columbia (+3.1 points) is up significantly and has reached its highest point since tracking began in 2023, while Argentina (-3.9 points) and Brazil (-2.5 points) both show significant losses. In contrast, consumer confidence is largely stable in Europe. Hungary (+4.4 points) has risen above the 40-point mark for the first time since May 2024, while Belgium (-2.5 points) declined this month. The Global Consumer Confidence Index is the average of all surveyed countries’ Overall or “National” indices. This month’s installment is based on a monthly survey of more than 21,000 adults under the age of 75 from 30 countries conducted on Ipsos’ Global Advisor online platform. This survey was fielded between January 23 and February 6, 2026.
