Explanation of symbols
Dataset is not available.
In this table you will find figures about savings (deposits) which are held by private individuals.
Two types of savings accounts (deposits) are distinguished:
- Deposits redeemable at notice
- Deposits with agreed maturity
Figures from DNB are taken over by CBS 1-on-1.
In January 2001 a new series was introduced because of a change in the obligation to report imposed on credit institutions.
In January 2009 a new series was introduced. The savings-data from the Dutch Central Bank (DNB), composed by means of a renewed raising-method, are as from this date taken over 1-on-1 by Statistics Netherlands(CBS).
In June 2010 the Dutch central bank (de Nederlandsche Bank, DNB) commenced a new series. As of this date the savings data from DNB is specified by counter-party. A refined grossing-up and compilation methodology has also been introduced.
Data available from December 1991 to December 2017.
