The latest available figures (for the third quarter of 2014) show that consumers’ vulnerability has been at or above the 50-point index value for the past six quarters. A movement above 50 would indicate a higher than average vulnerability, while a value below 50 indicates a lower than average vulnerability. The average CVI score amounted to 52.2 in the third quarter of 2014 – slightly up on the 50 score of the previous quarter. The average CVI score during 2014 was also higher than the average value of 49.5 recorded in 2013.
