Table explanation
This table comprises figures related to debt guarantees provided by the general government sector, adjusted capital value of off-balance sheet public private partnerships (PPP), and non-performing loans. The figures are also available per government subsector, and are taken from end-of-year balance sheets.
The non-performing loans are consolidated which means that loans between units that belong to the same sector are eliminated. As a result, non-performing loans of subsectors do not add up to total non-performing loans of general government. For example, loans of the State provided to local government are part of loans of the State. However, these are not included in the consolidated loans of general government, because it is an asset of a government unit with a government unit as debtor.
Publication of this table meets one of the requirements of Directive EU 2011/85, part of the Enhanced Economic Governance package ("Sixpack") adopted by the European Council in 2011.
Data available from: situation on 31 December 2010.
Status of the figures:
The figures for 2022 are provisional. The figures for the earlier years are final.
Changes as of 20 December 2023:
Provisional figures for 2022 have been published.
The final figures from 2010 to 2021 have been revised. The State's claims arising from export credit insurance were previously incorrectly not included as non-performing loans. These claims arise because the debtors do not fulfill their payment obligations to the insured. Repayments and interest payments can be delayed for a long time. That is why Statistics Netherlands considers these claims as non-performing loans.
Furthermore, the figures for 2020 and 2021 have also been adjusted because a number of loans to the Caribbean parts of the Dutch Kingdom were previously incorrectly not included as non-performing loans.
The figures for 2021 have become final.
When will new figures be published?
New provisional figures for the previous year will be published in October. Previous provisional figures will then become definite. More information on the revision policy of National Accounts can be found under "Relevant articles" under paragraph 3.
Description topics
- Value in million euros
- Adjusted capital value off balance PPP
- Adjusted capital value of off balance PPP.
The adjusted capital value of off-balance sheet public private partnerships (PPP).
The adjusted capital value is the initial contractual capital value, progressively reduced over time on the basis of estimates or actual data (in order to reflect better the GFCF and debt impact if the government were to take over the assets during the contract period).
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are complex, long-term contracts between two units, one of which is normally a corporation (or a group of corporations, private or public) called the operator or partner, and the other normally a government unit called the grantor. PPPs entail significant capital expenditure to create or renovate fixed assets by the corporation, which then operates and manages the assets to produce and deliver services either to the government unit or to the general public on behalf of the government unit.
In a PPP contract, the corporation acquires the fixed assets and is the legal owner of these assets during the contract period, in some cases with the backing of the government. The contract often requires the assets to meet the design, quality, and capacity specified by government, to be used in the manner specified by government to produce the services required by the contract, and to be maintained in accordance with standards defined by government.
As with leases, the economic owner of the assets in a PPP is determined by assessing which unit bears the majority of the risks and which unit is expected to receive a majority of the rewards of the assets. The asset, and thus the gross fixed capital formation, will be allocated to this unit. If the majority of the risk is for the partner, then the assets are on the partner’s balance sheet and off the balance of the government sheets. If the majority of the risk is for the government, then assets are imputed on the balance sheet of the government’s account together with an imputed debt for the government. The main risk and reward elements to be assessed are:
(a) construction risk: costs overruns, additional costs resulting from late delivery, not meeting specifications or building codes, and environmental and other risks requiring payments to third parties;
(b) availability risk: additional costs such as maintenance and financing, and incurrence of penalties because volume or quality of the services do not meet the standards specified in the contract;
(c) demand risk: demand for the services is higher or lower than expected;
(d) residual value and obsolescence risk: the asset will be worth less than its expected value at the end of the contract and the degree to which the government has an option to acquire the assets;
(e) the existence of grantor financing or granting guarantees, or of advantageous termination clauses, notably on termination events at the initiative of the operator.
- Non-performing loans
- Loans that have not been serviced for some time.
A loan is non-performing if (a) payments of interest or principal are 90 days or more past their due date; (b) interest payable of 90 days or more has been capitalised, refinanced, or delayed by agreement; or (c) payments are less than 90 days overdue, but there are other good reasons (e.g. debtor filing for bankruptcy) to doubt that payments will be made in full.
