Netherlands country watch
Exposure to the Netherlands means watching the Port of Rotterdam and Schiphol, The Hague's nitrogen, tax and export-control decisions, semiconductor-equipment restrictions, Rhine water levels and strikes, and the chemicals, energy, agrifood, banking and logistics groups that make it Europe's gateway. We read FD, NRC, De Telegraaf, de Volkskrant and RTL Z every morning.
