Two-year bond yield in the Netherlands 2019-2021
The yield on two-year bonds issued by the Government of the Netherlands fell to -0.66 percent as of March 11, 2021. this is an improvement on the lows of around -0.84 percent seen in September 2019, and -0.88 percent seen in March 2020, at the beginning of the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Negative bond yields signify that investors receive less money at the bond's maturity than the original purchase price of the bond, owing to high demand for the bond on money or capital markets.
