Quarterly Confidence Surveys and Index
STEP perform quarterly members confidence surveys which indicate
their confidence about the outlook for the trust and estate
industry around the world.
The survey looks at members’ views across a wide range of
jurisdictions and trust and estate businesses.
Using these surveys STEP calculate a Quarterly Confidence Index.
The Confidence Indices are constructed by taking the balance of
survey respondents replying that they expect business to “improve”
or “significantly improve” relative to those expecting business to
“decline” or “decline significantly”.
