The document provides an overview of the economies of the European Union and the United States. It includes statistics on GDP, employment, inflation, trade, and other economic indicators for both the EU and US from 2010 to the present. The EU section also includes data on individual Eastern and Western European countries. The document compares various economic factors between the EU and US and provides sources for all statistics cited.
This document discusses challenges facing Europe related to innovation, globalization, and sustainability. It finds that Europe lags behind the US and Asia in key innovation indicators like R&D spending and patents. Financial globalization has weakened policy control for states and global trade balances constrain domestic growth rates. Growing inequality and loss of manufacturing jobs in Europe and the US are partly due to these trends. The document outlines policy options for Europe including boosting innovation through mission-oriented programs, strengthening industrial policy, taxing financial rents, and managing trade to shield against the negative effects of unrestrained globalization.

- The UK economy benefits substantially from EU membership and trade, with UK exports of goods and services to the EU representing over 10% of GDP. Leaving the EU could disrupt these trade and investment relationships.
- Immigration from the EU has increased in recent years and played an important role in UK employment and GDP growth, while EU immigrants contribute positively to public finances. Brexit could reduce these immigration flows with economic consequences.

Greece experienced a debt crisis after a decade of high growth fueled by consumption and borrowing. This led to large budget deficits, loss of competitiveness, and mounting debt levels. International lenders provided bailout loans with strict austerity conditions to reduce deficits and debt. Austerity measures succeeded in improving fiscal balances but took a severe socioeconomic toll, with GDP declining 25% and unemployment rising to nearly 25%. Banking faced deposit outflows and limited credit growth remains a challenge.

GCEE Business Cycle Update, March 2018: “In the euro area, the level of indebtedness of many member states remains very high. This is particularly true of Italy where the national debt stands at over 130 % of GDP. Should financial markets lose confidence in the sustainability of public debt on account of the political uncertainty resulting from the outcome of the election, given the size of the Italian economy a return of the euro crisis cannot be ruled out. Furthermore, risks to financial stability continue to persist in certain member states due to the fragility of many banks, particularly with regard to the extent of non-performing loans.”

This document provides an economic summary and recommendations from the 2018 OECD Economic Survey of the European Union and Euro Area. It finds that while the economy is expanding and unemployment falling in the Euro Area, inflation remains below target. It recommends reforms to strengthen the monetary union, reduce financial fragmentation, improve long-term growth, and reform the EU budget. Specific policies include developing a common fiscal capacity and unemployment benefit scheme, expanding European capital markets, addressing barriers in services, and increasing digital skills.

The Wind of Change: Economic and Financial OutlookLatvijas Banka
Presentation by Governor of Latvijas Banka and member of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank Mārtiņš Kazāks during discussion on Latvia's economic developments in Brussels.
The document provides an overview of the European Union (EU) in 3 paragraphs:
1) It describes the EU's population of 500 million across 27 member countries and candidate countries. It also mentions the vision of its founders to promote peace and prosperity through cooperation.
2) It discusses the history of the EU from its origins after World War 2 to the recent enlargements of 2004 and 2007 that brought in many eastern European countries.
3) It outlines the EU's goals to be more efficient, democratic, transparent and united, as well as secure, through policies addressing climate change, energy, the economy, and more.
This document discusses the vulnerability of developing countries to the euro zone crisis. It finds that countries highly dependent on exports to Europe, remittances, foreign investment, and aid from European nations face higher risks. The crisis could significantly impact poor countries through reduced trade, private capital flows, and official development assistance. While European Central Bank interventions have eased financial pressures, the crisis remains unresolved with political and economic difficulties in key countries. Continued volatility globally remains a risk for developing economies.
Key Figures on Europe: Eurostat Pocketbook 2013Miqui Mel
This document provides a summary of the Key figures on Europe 2013 pocketbook published by Eurostat. It presents statistical data on a range of topics covering Europe. The pocketbook summarizes the most popular information from Eurostat's online publication Europe in figures - Eurostat yearbook. It is intended as an introduction to European statistics and provides access to the full data available on Eurostat's website. The pocketbook is divided into 13 chapters covering areas such as the economy, population, health, education, labor, trade and the environment. It presents data for countries in the European Union as well as some other European and non-European countries.
The European economy is projected to continue growing modestly over the forecast period, driven by domestic demand. Growth is expected to be supported by low oil prices, low interest rates, and a slightly expansionary fiscal stance. However, the boost from cheaper oil and the lagged effects of the weaker euro will fade. As a result, private consumption growth is expected to slow somewhat. Risks to the outlook remain high, mainly on the downside, including political uncertainty in Europe and globally. Economic policy needs to support growth while also standing ready to react to potential downside risks.

Flexibility and Commitment in New Organisational Structures – Evidence from Eurofound
In 3 sentences:
The document discusses trends in new forms of employment like temporary work, part-time work, and self-employment across Europe. It also analyzes data from surveys on working conditions that show most employees still have regular working hours but skills use is increasing. Company surveys identified five groups of workplaces with different management styles and "systematic and involving" workplaces reported the highest worker well-being and job performance.
To revitalize the economy in Eurozone, different monetary and fiscal policies have been considered and implemented. In the presentation, we also suggested our monetary and fiscal policies for year 2015 based. This slides were presented for professor Daniel Fernandez Kranz's Managerial Economics at IE Business School MBA.
