Stress index score of financial markets in the Netherlands 2015-2017
Political and policy uncertainty have increased in Europe, and it has not gone by unnoticed in the Netherlands. Whilst the exact economic effects of the Brexit negotiations, for example, are unclear, the CPB (Netherlands Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis) estimated a GDP growth of 2.1 percent In June 2016. After the Brexit referendum, this estimate decreased to 1.6 percent. The analysts now expected that the growth of the Dutch economy would slow down in 2017.
