Upstate CEOs do not have a positive outlook on the business policies likely to come out of the state Capitol during the 2017 legislative session, a new poll shows.
A Siena College/state Business Council poll released Friday shows that 61 percent of upstate CEOs surveyed in the final quarter of 2016 believe the state is currently doing a poor job of creating a business climate that promotes success. What’s more bleak: 84 percent of CEOs lack confidence that state government will improve the business climate in 2017.
CEOs are more bullish about the chances the federal government will improve business climate, though they still aren’t overwhelmingly confident. Sixty-six percent aren’t confident that positive changes are on the horizon.
