    NEW Zealand’s business confidence improved in January as the shock of the November Monetary Policy statement wore off, an ANZ Bank survey said on Friday.

    The survey’s headline measure showed a net 52 per cent of respondents expected the economy to deteriorate over the year ahead, versus a 70.2 per cent pessimism level in the previous poll in December.

    A net 15.8 per cent of respondents expected their own businesses to shrink in the next 12 months, versus a contraction of 25.5 per cent last month. REUTERS
