Investment climate less unfavourable in July

Every month, CBS publishes an update on the investment climate in the CBS Investment Radar. Factors that are relevant to the investment climate include the situation in sales markets and the financial markets. Although the radar indicators correlate fairly well with fixed investment, improved conditions do not necessarily result in greater growth or a smaller contraction in investment.

According to the CBS Investment Radar for July, the investment climate in the Netherlands is less unfavourable in July than it was in May. This is mainly because the year-on-year decline in exports is smaller and the year-on-year rise in share prices is larger. On the other hand, manufacturers are more negative about their order positions.

With effect from the reporting month of May 2024, the base year for investments in tangible fixed assets changed from 2015 to 2021. The new series also includes the recently implemented revision of the national accounts.
