This table provides up-to-date information about the opinions of Dutch entrepreneurs about the achievements, expectations and judgments regarding their company. This panel study provides insight into the current situation, the future development and the opinions of the Dutch business community. This makes it possible to identify changes in optimism or pessimism at an early stage, providing an early indication of a possible trend change in the economic activities of the Dutch business community. The data is broken down by business activities: sections (SBI 2008) and region. The questions put to the entrepreneurs at the beginning of a quarter concern production, turnover, prices, orders, stocks, investments, competitive position, economic climate, workforce and the obstacles encountered by the entrepreneurs. When answering the questions relating to developments in the past three months and expectations for the coming three months, the entrepreneurs are asked to make a comparison with the preceding three-month period. Data available from: 1st quarter 2012 - 2nd quarter 2023. Status of the figures: All published figures are final. Changes as of July 27, 2023: This table has been discontinued.
