May 30, 2017 - During the Annual General Meeting and Chamber Luncheon, AmCham presented its annual Investors' Agenda of Priority Points (Priority Points) to Dutch Ambassador to the U.S.A. Henne Schuwer. AmCham’s Priority Points address the main challenges to the Dutch investment climate and form the basis for AmCham’s dialogue with the Dutch government, employer organizations, legislators and other important stakeholders. The Priority Points are supported by a study on the Dutch Investment Climate executed by Bain & Company.
For 2017, the key points of attention are:
- Human Capital: invest in development of the workforce and top talent; ease employment protection; attract international talent
- Tax: competitive profit tax rate indispensable for Dutch investment climate
- Industry: support entrepreneurship and innovation; limit EU regulation costs; avoid national gold-plating
- Economic Footprint: societal value of R&D investments in healthcare and other industries
- Data Privacy: closely monitor developments
