As a result of the deteriorating business climate in construction, retail trade and the services sector, the overall assessment of the business environment in Bulgaria among entrepreneurs decreased for the fourth consecutive month - by 2.2 percentage points compared to October. Industrial entrepreneurs are more optimistic - the indicator "business climate in the industry" has gone up by 3.2 percentage points.
