The Dutch Kadaster in times of financial crisis

Barnasconi, Godfried & Paul van der Molen

The paper reports whether and how the ambitious strategy of the Dutch Kadaster (to develop into the number one supplier of land information in the countryy) can survive in times of financial crisis. Therefore the effect of the crisis on the Dutch property market will be analysed, and its impact on the financial position of the Kadaster. Being an independent public body since early 90's, for the first time the state of the national economy enforces a test of the steadiness of Kadasterrs founding regulations. Then the paper deals with the arrangements that are made to overcome the financial crisis. Finally the paper draws some lessons learned.
