In December 2013, the Netherlands had the second-highest number of<br />
broadband connections per 100 inhabitants in the world. Almost<br />
every household in the Netherlands can be reached by a cable or<br />
DSL connection. With the world’s largest digital data distributor, the<br />
Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX), the Netherlands also has an<br />
outstanding data connection network, which is essential for businesses<br />
such as banks, insurers, internet-based companies and computer and<br />
advertising companies.<br />
