CEOs nearly maintain upbeat outlook on YPO business confidence index
Last October, Australian CEOs hit a three-year high in business confidence, driven perhaps by the change in government. A quarter later, the executives are only a shade off on the YPO Global Pulse Confidence Index, sliding less than one point (0.9) to 61.7 in the latest survey.
