🇪🇺 European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's visit to Montevideo 🇺🇾 to meet MERCOSUR leaders suggests the long-awaited EU-Mercosur Association Agreement is nearing finalisation. "The EU-Mercosur Association Agreement is a significant economic agreement, which has the potential to create huge opportunities for sectors such as machinery, such as agriculture, chemicals and services." 🗣️ Oscar Guinea
About us
The European Centre for International Political Economy (ECIPE) is an independent and non-profit policy research think tank dedicated to trade policy and other international economic policy issues of importance to Europe. It was founded in 2006 by Fredrik Erixon and Razeen Sally. ECIPE is rooted in the classical tradition of free trade and an open world economic order. Progressive reduction of barriers to the movement of goods, services, capital and people across borders creates prosperity, and improves the conditions for peace, security and individual freedom. But discussion and advocacy of abstract ideas is far from enough. ECIPE’s intention is to subject international economic policy, particularly in Europe, to rigorous scrutiny of costs and benefits, and to present conclusions in a concise, readily accessible form to the European public. We aim to foster a “culture of evaluation” – largely lacking in Europe – so that better public awareness and understanding of complex issues in concrete situations can lead to intelligent discussion and improved policies. That will be ECIPE’s contribution to a thriving Europe in an open world.

📊 The World Intellectual Property Organization – WIPO Global Innovation Index 2024 places Switzerland and Sweden at the top for global innovation. 🇨🇭🇸🇪 These leaders continue to excel with unique strengths in their innovation journeys. "Switzerland and Sweden are undoubtedly more similar than different, yet Switzerland has consistently maintained a clear advantage in both prosperity and economic competitiveness. Sweden’s economic growth, which gained notable traction during the 1990s and early 2000s, seems to have slowed in recent years." ✍️ Andrea Dugo looks at the differences between the two countries in a new blog ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dUwCd4RF

Join our Director Fredrik Erixon for a conversation with John H. Cochrane (Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University) as we explore inflation, deficits, and potential economic policies under a second Trump administration. What is happening to the economy in America and Europe? Price levels have gone up substantially in the past years – and while many want to declare an end to the cycle of inflation, have we really grasped what factors actually forced a sharp rise in prices? Early in 2023, the great economist John Cochrane released a new and profound book, The Fiscal Theory of the Price Level, that challenged classic explanations of inflation and deflation. With remaining high deficits in the US and growing deficit-debts problems in countries like France, what should we expect happen in the near future? All the countries in Europe suffering from low or no economic growth – what should they do? And yes – Trump! What economic policies are a second Trump administration expected to pursue, and how will they effect that state of the economy? 🗓 Thursday, 12 December 🕐 17:00-18:00 CET 💻 Online Register ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dVwci28R
