How to select your new automotive manufacturing site in HungaryBalazs Csorjan dr.
Hungary is a popular location for automotive manufacturing within the EU due to its low costs and strong automotive industry. The automotive clusters are located primarily in western Hungary near cities like Győr and Esztergom, home to companies like Audi and Suzuki, but eastern Hungary is emerging as another hub with Mercedes-Benz located in Kecskemét. Labor costs are lower in eastern Hungary where unemployment rates are higher. Vocational training programs follow the German model. The government provides grants and incentives to attract investment and many industrial parks and infrastructure like highways exist throughout Hungary to support manufacturing.

This document analyzes corporate R&D investment and intensity in the EU and other major economies from 2005-2013. It finds that while the EU saw stable R&D investment growth, there are no signs it will close the intensity gap with competitors. The EU's lower overall R&D intensity is mainly due to structural factors like sector mix rather than underinvestment. Individual EU firms invest similarly in R&D as competitors in their sectors. But smaller EU firms invest less in R&D than US counterparts. Most global corporate R&D is concentrated in the US, EU, Japan, and a few industries. The findings suggest EU policy should address industrial structure and attract more top global R&D investors to help achieve its R

Quo vadis, Europe - Desperately seeking a powerful recoveryEuropeanPaper
The document discusses the economic situation and long-term challenges facing Europe. While some former problem countries have seen improvements, overall growth remains weak due to missing investments, high unemployment, an aging population, and declining competitiveness internationally. However, the document argues that strategic investments in energy, high-tech, and innovation could boost structural growth, enhance Europe's global competitiveness, and provide a vision to address both short-term stagnation and long-term economic challenges.
The Laffer curve as a Framework for Studying Tax EvasionGRAPE
This document discusses using the Laffer Curve as a framework for studying tax evasion. It begins with an overview of the motivation and literature review on the topic. Specifically, it notes that while the Laffer Curve is well-known, its direct application to studying tax evasion is less clear. The document then examines several case studies on tax reforms in Russia and Poland and how they related to changes in tax revenues and potential tax evasion. It concludes that the Laffer Curve can be a useful framework for incorporating and analyzing tax evasion, though it has not been a major focus in previous literature.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
New Technology: Some of the start-ups in our industry need to restructure their business model in order to adapt to the current situation.
Manufacturing / Automotive: Our business results are down and we are making a considerable effort to keep staff and avoid reductions.
Design: The CV-19 has had a strong negative effect on our company. Many projects have been canceled and we are not sure what the future will bring. On the other hand, some projects have started to slowly unfreeze.
Production: We have definitely started to work more since the pandemic – sometimes we are forced to reply to emails with a two week delay because of our workload. Industry and construction branch have been well supported by the government actions, so fortunately we never had to cut the budget or freeze any projects.
Executive Search: Several international Executive Search companies have started to reduce their personnel across all countries. While some are currently doing really well.
And candidate quotes:
Business Unit Director / Real Estate: I received a job offer in strategy entertainment after a two month job searching process, but I stay open for other opportunities.
Finance: There are more people on the job market at the moment because of the second wave of CV-19 prognosis. The job market has therefore become more competitive.

Labour productivity grew on average at the rapid 5 per cent annual rate in the Finnish manufacturing industry from 1975 to 2003. The labour productivity growth was broad-based in the 1970s and 1980s with contributions from multi-factor productivity gains in the paper and metal industries dominating. In the 1990s productivity growth was much more concentrated to the electronic industry. The level of labour productivity in Finnish manufacturing matched that of the US by the end of the second millennium. Labour costs and unit labour costs remained at only three quarters of the US level, although real hourly compensation increased steadily. After 1995 the manufacturing industry constituted a quarter of the Finnish economy but contributed a third of overall economic growth.
Promoting a stronger and more inclusive economy OECD Economic Survey Hungary ...OECD, Economics Department
The OECD Economic Survey of Hungary 2019 document discusses several key points:
1) The Hungarian economy is growing strongly but policies are needed to address risks to the recovery.
2) Greater economic inclusiveness would bolster growth as poverty and unemployment remain issues in some regions.
3) Population aging will significantly increase costs related to pensions and healthcare, which need to be addressed through reforms.
The document is the 2016 OECD Economic Survey of Germany. It discusses Germany's strong economic recovery after the recession, low unemployment rate, and high levels of well-being. However, it notes investment is low compared to other countries, which contributes to low productivity growth. It recommends increasing investment in infrastructure and removing barriers in professional services to boost competition and productivity, especially in the services sector. It also addresses issues around population aging, increasing immigration, education outcomes for immigrants, and encouraging more women and older workers to remain in the labor force.

Employment and labour market during and after covid 19 pandemicLatvijas Banka
The document discusses the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on employment and labor markets in the Baltic countries, particularly Latvia. It finds that while the overall impact has been limited so far, it varies significantly by sector, occupation, and population group, with low-income workers being most affected. This could increase structural unemployment and inequality without government intervention. The document also notes that long-term labor market challenges like skill mismatches and high structural unemployment predated the pandemic and still need to be addressed through measures like improving education and healthcare, promoting lifelong learning, and activating groups with low employment.

The document summarizes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russian invasion of Ukraine on Latvia's labor market. It finds that while unemployment increased during the pandemic, government support programs prevented larger job losses. Unemployment has since declined and is now only slightly above pre-pandemic levels. Younger workers and those in sectors like hospitality were most affected by pandemic layoffs. The invasion of Ukraine has worsened economic forecasts for Latvia in 2022 and exacerbated pre-existing labor market challenges around demographic changes and skills shortages.
