Dataset is not available.
This table provides up-to-date information about the opinions held by Dutch entrepreneurs on their achievements, expectations and judgments regarding their business. This panel 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 (SIC 2008) and region. 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: first quarter 2012 - second quarter 2023.
Status of the figures: All figures are definitive.

- "The level of production / activity in the next three
month will increase, remain unchanged or decrease? "- Production / activity will increase
- Weighted response rate of producers who expect the
production / activity in the next three months will increase.
- Production/activity will be unchanged
- Weighted response rate of producers who expect the
production / activity in the next three months will remain unchanged.
- Production / activity will decrease
- Weighted response rate of producers who expect the production /
activity in the next three months will decrease.
- Balance production next three months
- The weighted response rate of producers who expect an increase in
production / activity minus the weighted response rate of producers
who expect a decrease in production / activity. This balance shows
the direction in which the production / activity in the next three
months is expected to develop.
- Capacity utilisation
- The weighted response rate to the question:
- "The occupation / use of our available production capacity
is currently around ...% "
- Assessment of production capacity
- The weighted response rates to the question:
- "We assess the current production capacity, given the expected
market development as (too) large, normal or (too) small? "- Production capacity is (too) large
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the current
production capacity is (too) large, given the expected market development.
- Production capacity is normal
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the current
production capacity as normal, given the expected market development.
- Production capacity is (too) small
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the current
production capacity is (too) small, given the expected market development.
- Not applicable
- The weighted response rate of producers who consider
production capacity not to be relevant for their enterprise plus the
weighted response rate of producers who were not asked the question.
- Balance assessed capacity
- The weighted response rate of producers indicating that the
production capacity is (too) large minus the rate of producers
that consider this capacity is (too) small. This balance represents,
compared to the previous balances, the current assessment of shortage or surplus of available capacity.
- Assessment of finished products stocks
- The weighted response rates to the question:
- "We evaluate our finished products stocks / commodities, given the expected market development, as a (too) large, normal or (too) small?- Stocks finished products (too) large
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the stocks of
finished products / commodities, given the expected market development, as (too) large.
- Stocks finished products normal
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the stocks of
finished products / commodities, given the expected market development, as normal.
- Stocks finished products (too) small
- Weighted response rate of producers who consider the stocks of
finished products / commodities, given the expected market development, as (too) small.
- Not applicable
- The weighted response rate of producers who who consider stocks
of finished products / commodities for their for their enterprise as not
relevant plus the weighted the rate of producers who were not asked the question.
- Balance assessment stocks
- The weighted response rate of producers indicating that the stocks of finished products / commodities are (too) large minus the rate of
producers who cosider the stocks are (too) small.
This balance represents compared to the previous balances in relation to the expected sales development, the current assessment of satisfaction of the producers about their stocks of finished products.
- Factors limiting production
- The weighted response rates to the question:
- "Our production / business experience barriers:
1 - no barriers,
2 - insufficient demand,
3 - shortage of labour force,
4 - shortages of production equipment, materials, commodities, (retail) space
5 - financial constraints,
6 - weather conditions or
7 - other causes?- None
- Weighted response rate of producers indicating that at the
beginning of the quarter they do not experience any obstacles blocking their business activities.
- Insufficient demand
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of the
quarter indicating that insufficient demand is a barrier for their
activities.
- Labor shortage
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of the
quarter indicating that shortage of labour force is a barrier for their
activities.
- Shortage of material and/or equipment
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of
the quarter indicating that lack equipment or facilities / space /
resources / materials is a barrier for their activities.
- Financial constraints
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of the
quarter indicating that finacial constraints are a barrier for their
activities.
- Weather
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of the
quarter indicating that weather conditions is a limiting factor to meet
the demand.
- Other factors
- Weighted response rate of producers at the beginning of the
quarter indicating that other obstacles (like:to encounter strikes, work stoppages, penalties and the like) are a barrier for their activities.
