IMF-Kingdom of the Netherlands: Concluding Statement of the 2018 Article IV Consultation
February 28, 2018-- Outlook-A Positive Outlook with Remaining Challenges
1.The Dutch economy is in a positive phase. Growth is estimated at just above 3 percent in 2017 and is forecast to continue at about the same rate this year, supported by strong domestic demand and resilient exports.
However, wage growth has been modest at around 1 percent in recent years although trending upwards, reflecting slow productivity growth, subdued inflation expectations, and remaining slack and rising flexibility in the labor market. Inflation only picked up moderately, to 1.3 percent in 2017. Credit developments have remained contained due to continued deleveraging by banks, firms, and households. The current account surplus increased further, reflecting high domestic net savings, especially in the corporate sector, and the pick-up in global trade. The output gap is estimated to have closed in 2017 and is expected to remain positive over the medium term as macroeconomic policies remain supportive and adverse demographics limit potential growth.
