Description

National coverage

Dit is een dataset die landelijk dekkend is. De data heeft betrekking op heel Nederland.

Close

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.

Status of the figures: The results are provisional during the reporting year. The results will be declared final in the first month following the reporting year.

Changes as of February 5th 2026: Figures of January 2026 have been added. From January 2026, the newly added seasonally adjusted results will be provisional during the year. These results will be adjusted in January of the following year and then finalized.

When will new figures be published? Figures of February 2026 are expected to be published the 26th of February 2026. Seasonally adjusted results for all periods before January 2026 will be adjusted once on February 26, 2026. This is in line with the new method, where the results are only finalized after seasonal adjustment has been performed based on results over a full number of years.
