This table covers the investment expectations and realisations of enterprises in the Dutch manufacturing industry. Every February Statistics Netherlands asks enterprises in this sector about their investment expectations for the current calendar year and the realisations for the previous year. This table is compiled with cofinancing of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy.

Data available from: 2013
The data collected for publication in May 2020 is partial (approximately three quarters) from before March 12.
March 12 is the turning point for the measures for the COVID-19 pandemic. In view of the impact of this, the data from before 12 March have been corrected, based on additional requests and the response after 12 March.

Status of the figures:
All figures about the expectations from 2013 to 2022 are final. The figures about the realization from 2013 to 2020 are final and the figures about 2021 are provisional.

Changes as of 25 may 2022:
None, this is a new table.

When will new figures be published?
The expected investment data of year T have the following publication timetable:
• In the middle of year T:
Expected investments for T (definitive)
Realised investments for T minus 1 (preliminary)
Realised investments for T minus 2 (definitive)
• At the end of year T:
Realised investments for T minus 1 (preliminary)
