KOF's Economic Sentiment Index — a survey-based sentiment composite, sibling to the KOF Economic Barometer (ch_kof_barometer) but capturing firms' assessment of the current and expected business situation. Two methodology vintages run in parallel: the original "pre-Brexit" version and the standard 2018 version.
