Economic Update Dutch version
We expect the Dutch economy to grow by 1.2 percent in 2020. Exports and investments are hurt by, among others, weaker global growth. Domestically, the nitrogen problems negatively affect investments. Consumers remain an important driver of growth.

The Dutch economy continues to grow, but global weakness remains visible in manufacturing. The government announced substantial tax cuts and additional spending. However, labor market shortages may threaten the execution of the planned expenditures.
Economic Update Dutch version
Despite the economy growing, the Netherlands aren’t immune to foreign weakness: the industry has been shrinking for months. A possible expansion of government spending might therefore be a well-timed impulse, provided it is indeed able to spend more.

Government spending could prove a welcome boost for economic growth this year, while industry is expected to contribute less. High employment supports further consumption growth, despite rising pessimism among consumers.
Economic Update Dutch version
The Dutch economy is enjoying an extended summer, but the days are getting shorter. Confidence is waning and a shortage of labour is beginning to constrain the economic expansion.
Economic Update Dutch version
The Dutch economy has fully recovered from the crisis. In 2018 and 2019 growth will remain high and the Dutch economy will reach the top of the business cycle. Producer confidence is at the highest level ever measured, but inflation remains relatively low.
Economic Update Dutch version
Economic growth in the Netherlands is high and expextations for growth in the third quarter are also positive. The new coalition agreement will boost growth at the expense of the government budget.
