Episode description

Agnès Bénassy Quéré, Professor at the Paris School of Economics and at the University of Paris I Panthéon Sorbonne exchanges opinions with David Rinaldi, FEPS Director of Studies and Policy on the potential reforms to the EMU architecture and European fiscal rules. She explains the logic of a spending rule that would avoid the pro-cyclicality of the current setting. Thanks to her involvement in the French Productivity Board, Professor Bénassy Quéré also sheds some light on the agenda for competitiveness. Does it make sense to have national boards devising competitiveness in competition with other European member states?
