Romania is ranked 52nd among 56 countries included in the survey, which polled 31,000 people between May 20 and June 7.
According to the survey, Greek consumers are the most pessimistic in the world and are followed by Portuguese, Hungarian, Croatian and Romanian consumers.
Ireland, Spain, Lithuania, Italy, Japan, South Korea and Latvia are also among the countries with the lowest consumer confidence level.
The most confident consumers are in India, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, the United Arab Emirates, Switzerland and Hong Kong.
Global confidence declined in the second quarter of 2011 to its lowest level in the past year and a half, due to an uncertain economic outlook, rising inflation and state arrears crisis in the euro zone.
Consumers plan to spend less in the coming months for everything from investing in shares to buying clothes or taking vacations, after they were less careful over the past 12 months, reveals the survey cited by Reuters.
The lowest confidence level is registered in the euro zone, due to the deepening debt crisis.
