At minus 10.7 points in May, the index dropped by 14.8 points on a monthly basis.

The institute said: "The financial market experts’ sentiment concerning the economic development of the eurozone also worsened considerably in May."

The index for the euro area was at minus 9.4 points, 15.8 points below the previous month’s value.
