WELLINGTON, June 22 (Reuters) - Consumer confidence in New Zealand rose in the second quarter due to a strengthening in broader economic conditions that is expected to continue over the year ahead, a survey showed on Tuesday.
The Westpac-McDermott Miller consumer confidence index rose to 107.1 from 105.2 in the previous quarter. A reading above 100 indicates more optimists than pessimists.
The survey indicated that households feel more optimistic about the outlook of the economy over the coming year.
