Dutch 2024 economic growth seen at 1.1%, policy adviser CPB says

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – Economic growth in the Netherlands this year will be slower than earlier expected following a nine-month recession last year, government policy adviser CPB said on Thursday.

Growth in the euro zone’s fifth-largest economy is expected to pick up to 1.1% in 2024 after an expansion of only 0.1% last year.

The CPB in September had forecast 1.5% growth for 2024.
