description | This research provides indepth analysis of the causes and outcomes of
internal devaluation policy in EU. It is conducted using statistical and
econometric tools on a sample of three groups of EU member states: EU new
member states, PIIGS, and the rest of the EU (EU-core). The analysis points
to the key drivers of economic growth in the whole of the EU as being
productivity and investment (and consumption in EU new member states and EU
core members). Unit labour costs are relevant for GDP growth in PIIGS but
with a positive sign, while for the rest of the EU it is not a significant
variable. The policy of internal devaluation is unsuitable for application in
any EU member states, due to individual specificities. The solution is
stronger EU governance that takes the heterogeneity of EU member states into
consideration in the process of creating policies and finding solutions. |
