- Overall index declined by -0.5 points in June
- Business activity measures for the past 30 days (-3.3) and next 12 months (-2.3) fell
- Workers felt worse about their job security over the past 30 days (-3.0), although outlook improved (+1.3)
- Measures tracking retrospective opinion of household finances (+0.8) and outlook for the next 12 months (+1.6) rose
Consumer confidence declined in June 2025, according to the latest data from YouGov and the Centre for Economics and Business Research (Cebr). While some measures (such as those focused on household finances) saw improvement, worsening perceptions of business activity among workers dragged scores for the overall index down.
YouGov collects consumer confidence data every day, conducting over 6,000 interviews a month. Respondents answer questions about household finances, property prices, job security and business activity, capturing their views on the past 30 days and on their forecast for the coming 12 months.
Other improvements have been smaller. For example, there has been a three point rise in the proportion who think banks provide good customer service (60% - 63%), however, this was already an area where financial institutions were generally well regarded.
Going hand in hand with these improvements are noticeable declines in negative sentiment. For example, the proportion of Britons who think banks are doing a poor job of communicating risk to consumers has dropped seven percentage points from 47% to 40%.
