8 — Holland Financial Centre The position of the Netherlands as a location for European headquarters of non-European companies is even higher (4 th in 2008). The Netherlands also attracts more than a fair share of pan-European distribution centers, a manifestation of its central position in intercontinental trade. Chinese multinationals like Huawei, Midea and Liugong have their European distribution center or financial headquarters located in the Netherlands. Indian companies like Tata Steel (Corus), Reliance, Suzlon, Mittal Steel and Tata Consultancy Services with 1,000 employees, American companies as Bombardier, Cisco and Mead Johnson, and international financials like Royal Bank of Scotland, Deutsche Bank, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Goldman Sachs, Blackrock and Northern Trust are located in Amsterdam. The Netherlands has an open economy and an international outlook, both of which are vital aspects of a highly developed, dynamic and internationally oriented financial industry. It is for these reasons that various international banks are established in the Netherlands for joint ventures in the Dutch capital market. The financial sector employs a large number of people. In the Netherlands, approximately 270,000 people are employed in the financial industry as a whole, in comparison with 310,000 in London, 300,000 in New York and 185,000 in Switzerland. The Dutch financial sector knows many strong and thoroughly developed subsectors including: – Retirement Management (pension and insurance services, including asset management) – Sustainable Finance (carbon trading, sustainable investment and financing) – Financial Logistics (international payment systems, cash management and transaction services) – Trading Venue (market making, derivatives trading, trade & export financing)
