The call to set up a national investment bank to stimulate innovation in the Netherlands is being heard in The Hague. Outgoing Minister Eelco Heinen (Finance) embraces the plan to set up an institution for this purpose, but wants it to be limited to loans. He is not in favor of a new National Growth Fund, which has now been dubbed the 'Graaifonds' in The Hague.
