Table explanation


This table presents information about developments in turnover in the sector Business and ICT services (SIC sections J, M and N). The data can be divided by a number of branches according to Statistics Netherlands' Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 2008 (SIC 2008).
The figures are expressed as a percentage change compared to a previous period and by means of an index. In this table the base year is updated to 2015, in previous publications the base year was 2010.
Developments in turnover and volume are published in two formats. Firstly, as a year-on-year mutation which expresses growth relative to the same period in the preceding year.
The second format pertains to a period-on-period mutation, for example quarter-on-quarter. Period-on-period mutations are derived by applying seasonal adjustment.

Data available from: 1st quarter 2005.

Status of the figures:
All figures in the table are final.

Changes as of May 29, 2024:
The 2023 figures have been updated.

When will new figures be published?
No longer applicable.
This table was discontinued following the five-year base shift as of May 31, 2024 and was succeeded by a new table (see Trade and Services table in Section 3).
