The Conference Board Economics Watch® - European View
Europe Monthly Series
Join us for our monthly review of European economies on October 10th. In addition to our regular overview of recent and upcoming developments, we’ll address the different evolution of the recovery in the Euro Area and the U.K economy. Despite remaining apart from the Euro Area, the U.K. economy maintains close trading relations with nearby continental economies. However, its economic structure and regulatory approach differs greatly from most European economies. Join Chief Economist Bart van Ark, and his colleagues Brian Schaitkin and Bert Colijn, and guest speaker, Simon Tilford, Chief Economist at the Centre for European Reform, for a discussion of how these structural and regulatory differences may help or hinder the recovery in the U.K. and in continental European economies.
