I've found central banks to have some of the best data resources. Not sure if this is what you're looking for exactly, but:https://www.philadelphiafed.org/surveys-and-data/real-time-data-research/survey-of-professional-forecasters …
Philadelphia Fed SPF is decent, though US only and you'd have to make assumptions about data availability. ECB has a similar dataset for the Euro area going back to 1999 -https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/ecb_surveys/survey_of_professional_forecasters/html/table_hist_rgdp.en.html …
