Business Confidence vs TAW The National Bank of Belgium's business barometer declined in August for the fifth month in a row. Business leaders' confidence weakened again in the manufacturing industry, but the strongest deterioration was noted in the business related services sector. The business climate worsened in the building industry too, although to a limited extent. Finally, in the trade sector, the previous month's decline was completely reversed, thanks to a generally more positive outlook.
