The flow of businesses moving to the Netherlands because of Brexit remained strong in 2020, even though foreign investment fell by a quarter as the coronavirus pandemic hit, the Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency said on Thursday.

The agency said 78 “Brexit” companies moved to the Netherlands last year, the same number as in 2019 lifting the total since the 2016 Brexit referendum to 218. Amsterdam is already poised to be Europe’s number one corporate listing venue this year and in January data showed it displacing London as Europe’s biggest share trading centre.

They include British companies, but also businesses from America and Asia that are shifting European operations, it said.
