Foreign multinationals were responsible for half of all goods imports and exports in 2013, while those with Dutch roots accounted for around one
third of each.
The study reveals that in 2013, multinational companies in the Netherlands provided nearly two million jobs, or 40 per cent of jobs in the Dutch private sector.
This is an enormous contribution, considering that multinationals make up only around two per cent of all registered companies in the Netherlands.
Around half of these are Dutch companies with foreign subsidiaries, such as manufacturing corporation AkzoNobel, technology producer Philips and retailer Ahold. Such companies account for a slight majority of all job creation by multinationals.
The other half are foreign companies with subsidiaries in the Netherlands. Notable examples include discount supermarket chain Lidl, V&D department stores (which are owned by American Sun Capital) and Tata Steel.
Another reason such firms are significant for the Dutch labour market is that they tend to be among the companies willing to hire internationals in the Netherlands.
The CBS also examined the level of economic activity for which multinationals are accountable.
Despite being a tiny percentage of all companies, Dutch multinationals generate 25 per cent of turnover in the private sector, and foreign ones produce 40 per cent. Together, they account for nearly two-thirds of all private-sector turnover.
