The Netherlands

A modern, industrialized nation, the Netherlands is also a large exporter of agricultural products. The Netherlands has a prosperous and open economy, which depends heavily on foreign trade. The economy is noted for stable industrial relations, moderate unemployment and inflation, a sizable current account surplus, and an important role as a European transportation hub. Industrial activity is predominantly in food processing, chemicals, petroleum refining, and electrical machinery. A highly mechanized agricultural sector employs no more than 4% of the labour force but provides large surpluses for the food-processing industry and for exports. The country continues to be one of the leading European nations for attracting foreign direct investment.

The Netherlands have a relatively high readership of newspapers and magazines and there is a growing foreign ownership. At least 8000 different magazine titles are available for Dutch readers. Daily newspapers have a market share of 20 percent, while television has 18 percent. Online-advertising is increasing sharply. The Netherlands have the highest internet use in Europe: 83% of all Dutch people have access to the internet.
