Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency
Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency (NFIA) The NFIA is an operational unit of the ministry of Economic Affairs. The NFIA helps and advises foreign companies on the establishment, rolling out and/or expansion of their international activities in the Netherlands. The NFIA was established 35 years ago, and has since then supported more than 3,200 companies from nearly 60 countries in the establishment or expansion of their international activities in the Netherlands. Besides its headquarters in The Hague, the NFIA has its own offices in the United Kingdom, Turkey, North America, Asia, the Middle East and Brazil. Additionally, the NFIA works together with Dutch embassies, consulates‐general, and other organizations representing the Dutch government abroad, as well as with a broad network of domestic partners. The NFIA books a ‘confirmed project’ as a result when it receives a so‐called ‘confirmation letter’ from the foreign investor. In this letter, the investor confirms that NFIA involvement has led to the company's decision to implement an investment project in the Netherlands. The company also indicates therein what investment amount is involved in the project and how many direct jobs it expects to realize within three years, completed with information on employment retention. Foreign direct investment in the Netherlands The Dutch Central Bank (DNB) registers all foreign direct investments in the Netherlands. These direct investments include transactions that are connected with the acquisition of share capital by foreign companies in Dutch companies (through formation, merger or takeover) with the goal to obtain management control. Additionally, they include all other financial transactions between associated ventures (loans, profit deductions, mutations in mutual current accounts), as well as the purchase and sale of real estate. The NFIA concerns itself mainly with that part of the transactions that is related to ‘footloose’ investment projects, as they are known. In the location choice of a footloose investment project, locations in various countries are considered. The investments are particularly related to the formation of a Dutch presence by a foreign company. Footloose projects can be both ‘greenfields’ (initial establishments) and ‘brownfields’ (adaptations and/or improvements of existing establishments). On the other hand, NFIA is only sparsely involved in mergers and acquisitions that constitute the principal part of the foreign direct investments as measured by the DNB. The share of these footloose projects in the total picture of foreign direct investment in the Netherlands varies between 2% and 5%, depending on the capital intensity of the projects. However, the added value of these projects in particular, in addition to the financial inflows, can be translated into employment, an extra boost for innovation and research, and reinforcement of the Netherlands as the ‘gateway to Europe’. Foreign investments put the Netherlands on the map, and ensure a strengthening of the Dutch economic structure. 14‐3‐2014
