Netherlands, with a population of 17.4 million, has a great economic opening to the outside, despite being very dependent on the world economic situation, in particular international trade and the financial sector.
Its geographical location is the strong point of the Dutch market, as it is a crossing point for European trade and a distribution center for imports and investments from Asia and the United States of America.
In 2021, there was an increase in gross domestic product of 4.8%. But just as it happens all over the world, mainly in Europe, it is expected that the conflict in Ukraine will affect the growth of the economy, namely with the increase in prices, in weaker exports and also in terms of investment, with a smaller increase in private consumption.
The areas of greatest interest are environmental technologies, health, information technologies, food products, wines, clothing, footwear and molds for plastics, among others.
