Self-employed persons; income, wealth, characteristics

Description

This table provides data on the income and wealth of self-employed persons. A distinction is made between, on the one hand, those for whom the main income is generated from self-employment and, on the other hand, all persons with income from self-employment. The figures in this table are broken down by type of self-employment, economic activity, gender, age, migrant background, household position, and by income and wealth groups. All statistics in this table are at person level, including capabilities; (business) assets are determined per household, and are allocated to all persons in the household as a measure of prosperity. Target population and power reference date is 1 January of the reporting year. For the earlier years 2007 to 2010, the capital reference date is 1 January of the year following the reporting year. The General Business Register (ABR) is used to determine the SBI of self-employed persons. During the period 2007-2011, the ABR had to deal with a number of trends. This leads to a significant decrease in the number of self-employed in financial services (K) in 2010 in this table. Therefore, caution should be exercised when comparing the figures to SBI. Data available from: 2007. Status of the figures: The figures for 2006 to 2019 are final. The 2020 figures are provisional. Changes as of 10 March 2022: The figures on self-employed capital in 2010 were not correct and have been removed from the table. For this year, the 2011 assets can be assumed as the reference date has been postponed from 31 December to 1 January since 2011. Power figures for 2013 were missing, and have been added. Changes as of 26 July 2021: Revised figures for 2006 to 2019 have been added. The availability of new sources of debt and accumulated credit in savings and investment loans, as well as a renewed methodology in the calculation of the significant importance and various other asset items, changed the capital figures. The characterisation of self-employed persons has also been adapted so that all self-employed persons with staff employed are considered as a zmp’er (formerly only the main source of income was taken into account). When will there be new figures? New figures for 2021 will be available in December 2022.
