Table explanation
This table provides up-to-date information, including uncertainty margins, about the opinions held by Dutch entrepreneurs on their achievements, expectations and judgments regarding their business. This panel survey is aimed at gaining insight into the current situation, future development and judgments of Dutch enterprises. As a result it is possible to detect turning points in optimism or pessimism at an early stage, providing an early indication of possible trend changes in the economic activities of Dutch enterprises. Data are broken down by main business activity (SITC 2008). The questions submitted to the entrepreneurs at the beginning of a quarter concern output, turnover, prices, order books, stocks, investments, competitive position, economic climate, staff size and the obstacles they have encountered. In answering the questions relating to developments in the past three months and expectations for the next three months, the entrepreneurs are asked for a comparison with the preceding period of three months.
Data available from: January 2012
Status of the figures: All figures are definitive.
Changes as of November 6th 2024:
Figures of October 2024 have been added.
Due to a technical error figures for three of the topics are missing for October 2024 for both construction and all enterprises (no finance or energy). Figures for all other branches are available for these topics. It concerns the following topics:
- Turnover next year
- Workforce next year
- Expectations investments next year
Changes as of March 7th 2024:
Due to a technical issue most figures of February 2024 were divided by 100. This now has been corrected.
When will new figures be published?
Figures of November are expected to be published the 28th of November 2024.
