The Business confidence is a sentiment indicator for the Dutch private sector. When assessing the results, it can be assumed that the more optimistic or pessimistic the entrepreneurs are, the more the value of business confidence will deviate positively or negatively from the zero line.
The Business confidence in the total Dutch private sector is a weighted average of the confidence indicators of the underlying sectors/industries, which together form a representative reflection of the Dutch business community from an economic viewpoint.
The Business confidence for manufacturing industry is not the same as the Producer Confidence. These figures are available in the Producer confidence table.
Data available from: January 2012.
Changes as of March 28th 2024:
Figures of March 2024 have been added.
An improvement has been made to the calculation of the margins. This may result in a small change in the upper and lower limit of the margin. The values are unchanged.
From now on figures will be labeled as seasonally adjusted or original, even if the table only contains one of these data types.
Data from October 2023 for sector F Construction has been corrected, which has led to small changes in all aggregations that include this sector for that period.
When will new figures be published?
Figures of April are expected to be published the 16th of May 2024.
