\n SEOUL, South Korea’s business sentiment declined for April to snap its two-month improvement amid a slowdown in private spending, a central bank poll showed Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Local companies’ business sentiment index (BSI) stood at 71 for the coming month, down from 72 the previous month, according to the survey by the Bank of Korea.<\/p>\n
The index measures corporate prospects for business conditions in the following month. A reading below 100 means pessimists outnumber optimists.<\/p>\n
The central bank said business sentiment declined as domestic demand is expected to remain sluggish.<\/p>\n
The BSI for manufacturers came to 73 for April, down 2 points from the previous month. The index for nonmanufacturing firms fell 1 point to 69 over the same period, the data showed.<\/p>\n
