The Dutch consumer confidence index stood at -3 in May 2019, unchanged from the previous month. The willingness to buy was stable (at -3), as consumers have not changed their opinions about their financial situation, though they found time a bit more favorable for making large purchases (2 vs 1). Meanwhile, households' assessment towards the economic climate strengthened slightly (-2 vs -3 in April), as their outlook for the coming twelve months is slightly less negative, while they were also less positive about the economic climate in the past twelve months.

Netherlands Consumer Confidence

In the Netherlands, the Consumer Confidence survey is made by phone and covers 1,000 households. The questions cover the consumer’s assessments on national economy and own financial situation for the past 12 months and expectations for the coming 12 months. The index is then calculated as a difference between the percentage of participants that are optimistic and the share that is pessimistic. Therefore, the index takes a value between -100 (all respondents assess their situation as poor and expect it to become worse) and 100 (all participants are satisfied with the current situation and expect it to improve); 0 indicates neutrality.
