The Performance of Services Index (PSI) is a monthly survey that provides an early indicator of levels of activity within the New Zealand services sector. A reading above 50.0 indicates that the services sector is generally expanding, while a reading below 50.0 indicates a contraction. It is a sister publication to the Performance of Manufacturing Index (PMI) and covers industries such as retail, transport, and finance.
The index is based on a survey of service sector businesses regarding five main variables: sales, employment, new orders, stocks, and supplier deliveries.
