The BSI index measures entrepreneurs' assessments and forecasts regarding economic trends. The responses from entrepreneurs are averaged and converted into a scale that ranges from 0 (very poor) to 200 (very good). A BSI index score of 100 signifies no change from the previous quarter, a score above 100 indicates an improvement, and a score below 100 reflects a decline in business conditions compared to the previous quarter.
