Pays-Bas Croissance Du Pib

The Netherlands’ GDP expanded by 0.1% quarter-on-quarter in Q2 2025, easing from 0.3% in Q1, according to advance estimates. This marks the fifth straight quarter of slowing growth. The modest rise was mainly driven by increased investments and higher government spending. Investments in fixed assets grew by 1.5%, led by purchases of transport equipment like ships and aircraft, though construction investment declined. Government consumption rose 0.8%, but household spending fell 0.4%, with lower outlays on hospitality, clothing, and leisure. Exports rose 0.9%, but were outpaced by a 2.6% jump in imports, reducing the trade surplus. Most sectors saw a rise in value added, with mining and quarrying leading at 1.2%. Business services and industry also contributed positively, thanks to their larger economic weight. However, construction, retail, hospitality, transport, and financial services weighed on overall growth.
