POSLOVNE TENDENCE V STORITVENIH DEJAVNOSTIH, SLOVENIJA, APRIL 2005 
BUSINESS TENDENCY IN SERVICES, SLOVENIA, APRIL 2005 
   
 V aprilu 2005 je bil kazalec zaupanja v storitvenih dejavnostih v 
primerjavi s preteklim mesecem višji za 4 odstotne točke. Glede 
na isti mesec lanskega leta in glede na lansko povprečje je 
njegova vrednost padla, in sicer za 4 odstotne točke oziroma 6 
odstotnih točk. 
 In April 2005 the service confidence indicator increased by 4 
percentage points compared to the previous month. Compared to 
April 2004 and to last year’s average it deteriorated by 4 and 6 
percentage points, respectively. 
 Na aprilski dvig kazalca zaupanja v storitvenih dejavnostih sta 
vplivali predvsem oceni o boljšem sedanjem in pričakovanem 
povpraševanju. Kazalec sedanji poslovni položaj se je poslabšal. 
 The April increase in the service confidence indicator was mostly 
driven by an improvement in the assessment of the present and 
expected demand. The present business situation worsened. 
 
 Večina kazalcev stanj se je izboljšala, le kazalec sedanji poslovni 
položaj se je poslabšal. Izmed kazalcev pričakovanj je kazalec 
pričakovane prodajne cene ostal enak, medtem ko sta se ostala 
izboljšala. 
 Most situation indicators improved – only the present business 
situation indicator deteriorated. Among expectation indicators the 
indicator of selling prices expectations remained the same while 
others improved.

METODOLOŠKA POJASNILA METHODOLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS 
Namen raziskovanja Purpose of the survey 
Namen kvalitativne Ankete o poslovnih tendencah v 
storitvenih dejavnostih (vprašalnik PA-STOR) je mesečno 
pridobivanje informacij o trenutnih stanjih glavnih 
ekonomskih kazalcev ter ocenitev njihovega gibanja v 
naslednjih mesecih. Rezultati ankete so osnova za izračun 
kazalca zaupanja v storitvenih dejavnostih. 
The purpose of the qualitative Survey on Business Tendency in 
Services (questionnaire PA-STOR) is to get monthly 
information about current situations of major economic 
indicators and to evaluate their movement in the following 
months. The survey results are the basis for evaluation of the 
confidence indicator in services. 
Panelno anketo o poslovnih tendencah v storitvenih 
dejavnostih izvajamo v Sloveniji od aprila 2002 s 
poenotenim vprašalnikom, na podlagi poenotene 
metodologije in z enako periodiko, kakor jo izvajajo v 
državah članicah Evropske unije že več desetletij; to 
omogoča neposredno primerljivost podatkov. 
The Panel Survey on Business Tendency in Services is being 
carried out in Slovenia since April 2002 with the harmonised 
questionnaire, methodology and periodicity, which have been 
used in EU Member States for several decades. Therefore, all 
data are directly comparable.

Način zbiranja podatkov  Method of data collection 
Anketo izvajamo mesečno po pošti. The survey is carried out monthly by mail. 
Definicije in pojasnila Definitions and explanations 
Ravnotežje je razlika med pozitivnimi in negativnimi 
odgovori, izraženimi v odstotkih. Ravnotežja prikazujejo 
gibanje opazovanih ekonomskih kazalcev (stanj in 
pričakovanj), ne pa dejanskih velikosti ekonomskih 
kazalcev. Grafikoni prikazujejo ravnotežja po posameznih 
vprašanjih. 
The balance is the difference between positive and negative 
answers, expressed in percent. The balance shows the 
movement of observed economic indicators (present situation 
and future expectations), and not the real size of economic 
indicators. The charts show the balance by individual 
questions. 
Kazalec zaupanja v storitvenih dejavnostih je povprečje 
odgovorov (ravnotežij) na vprašanja o poslovnem položaju 
ter sedanjem in pričakovanem povpraševanju po storitvah. 
The confidence indicator in services is the arithmetic mean 
of responses (balances) to the questions on business situation, 
and present and expected demand.

KOMENTAR COMMENT 
V aprilu 2005 je bil kazalec zaupanja v storitvenih dejavnostih v 
primerjavi s preteklim mesecem višji za 4 odstotne točke. Na 
dvig kazalca sta vplivali oceni o boljšem sedanjem in 
pričakovanem povpraševanju, saj se je ocena sedanji poslovni 
položaj poslabšala. Glede na isti mesec lanskega leta in glede 
na lansko povprečje je vrednost kazalca zaupanja padla, in 
sicer za 4 odstotne točke oziroma 6 odstotnih točk. 
In April 2005 the service confidence indicator increased by 4 
percentage points compared to the previous month. This 
increase was driven by an improvement in the assessment of 
the present and expected demand, while the assessment of 
the present business situation worsened. Compared to April 
2004 and to last year’s average the confidence indicator 
deteriorated by 4 and 6 percentage points, respectively.
