Data, opportunities and bottlenecks of family businesses

1 December 2020 - Family businesses are an important linchpin for the Dutch economy and distinguish themselves from other businesses on specific characteristics. Due to the lack of data on family businesses, the developments of family businesses cannot be properly monitored, resulting in a lack of a targeted policy. For this reason, MPs Amhaouch and Palland have asked the government to make quantitative data on family businesses available, mapping out developments over a longer period of time.
