    How do consumers perceive prices and expect them to develop over the next 12 months? How do their expectations and actual HICP inflation affect consumer confidence, their savings and spending intentions? To throw light on these and some related questions, the analysis presented in this special takes a close look at the results of the harmonised EU-wide consumer survey up to September 2023. Overall, the partial recovery in consumer confidence since inflation started to come down has not yet translated into clear improvements in the assessments of households' balance sheet positions. This, compounded by increasing intentions to save by the most affluent consumers, suggests subdued growth in private consumption ahead. The recent deterioration in consumer confidence in August and September - if confirmed in the months ahead - could further dampen the prospects for household spending.
