Household overdrafts rise, borrowing stable
Dutch households borrowed the same amount of money last year as they did in 2006, according to figures released today.
The national statistics office CBS said overall debt was around €10.4bn. However more and more people were in the red on their current accounts and the outstanding overdraft balance was 8% higher than in 2006, the CBS said.
