Fiscal Balance in Netherlands
Netherlands - Fiscal Balance
While the government technically lost its majority in Parliament in early October, this is unlikely to result in the fall of the coalition cabinet or to have any significant economic ramifications. Against this political backdrop, the economy likely lost a step in the third quarter after robust growth in the second. Industrial production faltered in July–August, likely hit by weakness in Germany’s manufacturing sector and weakened global trade as the Sino-American trade war lingers and Brexit remains unclear. This is also reflected in weak annual merchandise export growth in the same period. More positively, household consumption accelerated in July in year-on-year terms, benefiting from a tight labor market and cheap credit conditions, while retail sales growth continued apace in July–August compared to Q2, boding well for private consumption in Q3.Netherlands - Fiscal Balance Data
