Consumer sentiment index remains unchanged in February

South Korean consumer sentiment index (CSI) stood at 102 for the second straight month in February, according to a monthly survey released by the Bank of Korea on Feb. 27.

A reading above 100 for any individual CSI signifies that the households that answered positively outnumbered those that answered negatively, with the reverse being true in the case of a reading below 100, the central bank says.

The CSI was 99, below par, in December last year.
