  • Service Index: 64.7 vs. 63.1 consensus, 60.4 prior.
  • The Composite PMI Index posted 63.5 in April signals the sharpest upturn in private sector output since data collection began in October 2009.
  • “Thanks to the cocktail of a successful vaccine roll-out, the reopening of the economy, ultra-accommodative monetary policy and injection of fresh fiscal stimulus, businesses are reporting the strongest surge in demand seen for at least a decade," said Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist.
