NOS15 September · 15:391 week ago

The CPB revised its forecast, stating that the average household’s purchasing power will decline by only 0.1% next year, up from an initial -0.3%. Lowest incomes rise by 0.2%, and pensioners by 0.3%, due to tax cuts and strong pension funds. The cabinet targets vulnerable groups with energy subsidies and EV incentives. Economic growth remains at 1.2%, with a deficit of 2.2%. Uncertainty persists due to the minority government and potential Iran conflict impacts on energy prices.
