Exports Radar
Outside the dotted line: more favourable than average.
Exports Radar: circumstances improved
Circumstances for Dutch exports in January 2023 were more favourable than in the previous month. Since the publication of the previous Exports Radar, new data have become available for six indicators. Three indicators improved, three indicators deteriorated, one remained the same. Circumstances relevant to Dutch exports are largely determined by developments in the main market for Dutch exports - Germany and the eurozone - and developments in Dutch competitiveness. Although the Radar indicators show a strong correlation with export activity, improved circumstances are not necessarily translated into increased export growth.
The year-on-year change of the real effective exchange rate was more favourable. Producer confidence in the Eurozone and opinions of Dutch manufacturers about their foreign orders also improved. However, opinions of European manufacturers about their foreign orders deteriorated.
The year-on-year growth of German manufacturing output was smaller than in the previous month and German producer confidence deteriorated.
