The Netherlands’ economy grew 0.4% quarter-on-quarter in Q3 2025, up from an upwardly revised 0.3% in Q2, according to a flash estimate. This was the fastest pace of expansion this year, driven mainly by exports and government consumption. Exports of goods and services rose 0.8%, led by petroleum products, plastics, metals, and machinery, while imports increased only 0.2%. Government consumption grew 1.1%, supported by higher healthcare spending and wages, among other areas. Household consumption rose 0.3%, with consumers spending more on energy, transport, and clothing. However, fixed asset investment fell 1.6%, as both businesses and the government cut spending on transport. On a yearly basis, GDP growth edged slightly lower to 1.6%, down from 1.7% in Q2.
