Objectives of the roundtable
The session will discuss the impacts of the massive and continuous use of non-conventional ECB instruments since 2015, the over indebtedness and the resurgence of inflation on EU growth as well as the financial vulnerabilities created by lasting very low interest rates.
Then the session will focus on the main monetary and fiscal priorities for achieving sustainable growth in such a European context.
Points of discussion
