Recommendation

Following the global financial crisis, headway toward achieving a European Union single market plateaued, in parallel with a painfully slow economic recovery. In this thorough study, economist Jan Stráský suggests that kick-starting market integration will revive growth. The critical push is in the prioritization of short- and long-term policy objectives. With the caveat that the report is more accessible to the policy wonk than the lay reader, getAbstract recommends this instructive analysis to those interested in understanding the arcana of EU markets.

Take-Aways

  • Progress toward a European Union single market plateaued following the global financial crisis.
  • Ongoing barriers to EU market integration are hampering postcrisis economic recovery.
  • A capital markets union would improve the cross-border flows of capital to finance small and medium-sized enterprises.
