Notes Retail News Index (RNI) has been produced by FSP to track the mood of the UK retail market. As part of the SnapShop service, FSP typically reviews over 350 unique items of retailer news in the trade and national press every month. Each item is scored according to the sentiment of the news (i.e. expanding / strong sales growth: positive, store closures / redundancies: negative). RNI is the sum of these scores, indexed against 2005 and averaged over a three month period to eliminate volatility and produce a reliable trend indicator. The RNI time series for all retailers starts at May 2002. The content of this report has been derived from statistical, trade and published sources. Whilst FSP has used its best endeavours to ensure the accuracy of the information, it cannot accept liability for any data therein nor any interpretation made therefrom.
