Netherlands

Business Indicators

With an overall score of 10.98/12, the Netherlands is at standard on the economic, legal, and political indicators that make up our Business Index. The Netherlands has a market-based economy. In 2004, government consumption equaled 25.3 percent of GDP, and 5.29 percent of government revues came from state-owned enterprises and government ownership of property in 2003. The Dutch government encourages foreign investment, provides investors with a very favorable investment climate, and offers them national treatment except in the air transport sector. However, investment is banned from a few sectors, and there are a number of permit requirements and regulations. Property rights and contract laws are fully established. Corruption is of no concern to investors, as reflected in the Netherlands' ranking of 7th out of 180 countries in Transparency International's 2007 Corruption Perceptions Index.
