The CCIWA Business Confidence Survey is the longest running and most comprehensive business survey in WA. Produced quarterly it covers businesses of all sizes and sectors across the state and includes:
The soaring cost of doing business is now the number one barrier to growth in WA. Despite these rising pressures, business confidence has held firm, amid signs that labour shortages have reached their peak.
The first of its kind in the State, the CCIWA Consumer Confidence survey provides invaluable insights into the attitudes and sentiments of Western Australian consumers.
Analysis includes:
WA consumer sentiment is holding steady despite cost-of-living pressures and interest rate rises continuing to bite. However, confidence levels are still close to the lowest reading in six years (excluding the onset of COVID), reflecting the ongoing challenges that continue to plague the economy.
Western Australians remain especially concerned about the surging cost of living, with living costs still the single biggest drag on consumer confidence this quarter – hurting the confidence of four in five (80%) WA households.

The world economy teeters on a knife-edge. Global interest rates are increasing at their fastest pace in history in response to sky-rocketing inflation, while at the same time legacy stimulus measures continue to bolster economies. But against this backdrop, Western Australia’s economic fundamentals remain as solid as ever. Our domestic economy is now 12 per cent bigger than what it was pre-COVID and the number of Western Australians in full-time work continues to grow.
In this edition of Outlook, we unpack the key forces underpinning WA’s recent economic performance and outline how the economy could eveolve in the months and years ahead.
Western Australia’s regions are the engine room of the WA economy, supporting a range of key export industries, including resources, agriculture and tourism.
Regional Pulse breaks down key results from the CCIWA Business Confidence Survey, providing insights into the conditions facing businesses in WA’s regional centres. The report contains:
On average, regional businesses are slightly more optimistic than metro businesses in the short term but less so over the longer term.
Just over one third (35%) of regional businesses expect stronger conditions over the next three months – three percentage points higher than for metro businesses (32%).
Looking to the next twelve months, around one quarter (27%) regional businesses expect stronger conditions, nine percentage points less than metro businesses (36%).
