Business; Cyclical picture by industry, 2008-1st quarter 2018

This Statline Table provides coherent information on recent developments in Dutch business. This table differs in design from many other Statline tables. Most tables provide detailed results from one statistic, while this aggregate table brings together the main outcomes from various cyclically relevant statistics. The table provides an up-to-date consistent cyclical picture of the sectors and sectors concerned and for the industry as a whole. In addition to current quarterly information, this table contains a number of structural data from the last published production statistics compiled annually of the sectors and sectors concerned. This table was discontinued on 12 June and is followed up by a new table, see paragraph 3. Data available from: first quarter of 2008 Status of the figures: The data, which are published quarterly, are provisional for 2017 and 2018 and for the remaining periods. The structural data per year are final. Changes as of 13 June 2018: None, the table has been discontinued. Changes as of 8 February 2018: The figures for the third quarter of 2017 have been added and the previous periods for 2017 may have been adjusted. With the cyclical data, the fourth quarter of 2017 was added. The structural data for 2015 have also been added. Changes have been made to the following data: Turnover index and development: Over time, some figures in the source tables have been corrected. These corrections have now been made in the economic picture table. Price index and development: Over time, some figures in the source tables have been corrected. These corrections have now been made in the economic picture table. In addition, from now on, the price index and development will no longer be available for the aggregate 62-63 IT and information services. This connects to the source table. Cyclical data: Until 2016, there was a difference between the quarterly figures and the figures for the first month of the quarter. First, the monthly figures were used. From now on, the quarterly figures will be used. It is more logical to use it, because the economic picture table is a quarterly table. Bankruptcies: Over time, some figures in the source tables have been corrected. These corrections have now been made in the economic picture table. Structure data: The results of the so-called structure data weeks in detail (number of decimal places) from the same results as published in various other Statline tables. This publication harmonises the results. This means that the results in this table are now also rounded to integer numbers and are therefore in line with the various other publications on Statline. Changes as of 19 October 2017: The figures for the second quarter of 2017 have been added and the previous periods for 2017 may have been adjusted. With the cyclical data, the third quarter of 2017 was added. The figures from this table have been compared with the figures from the underlying specific source tables, such as tables of turnover and price statistics and the Netherlands Business Survey (COEN). This comparison has shown inconsistencies. The differences are mainly caused by not always passing changed figures from the source tables. In addition, in a limited number of cases, erroneous figures have been published about ‘quarterly on quarterly’ developments instead of ‘Year-on-Year’ developments. All differences have been corrected in this version of the table. A number of figures about the industry have been replaced by a point with insufficient reliability. When are new figures coming? No longer applicable.
