The View from Brussels

摘要

On 5 November 2013, the European Commission published its economic forecast for the autumn of 2013. The Commission appears confident that the structural reforms undertaken in Europe have created the basis for recovery and it sees increasing signs that the European economy has reached a turning point. While real GDP growth is still estimated to be at 0.0% in the EU in 2013, it is forecast to gather pace in 2014 with a 1.4% increase and in 2015 with growth estimated at 1.9%.
