According to Lenz's Law, the induced current in the loop will oppose the change in magnetic flux. As the north pole of the magnet approaches the loop, the loop will generate a magnetic field to oppose the increase in magnetic flux, resulting in a counterclockwise current when viewed from your perspective.
