OECD Economic Surveys: European Union and Euro Area 2025
July 3, 2025-Abstract
Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine and rising trade tensions continue to slow down the European economy. Despite strong policy responses to external shocks, the near-term outlook is clouded by elevated uncertainty. Disinflation is progressing, but monetary policy should remain vigilant. Fiscal policy needs to make space for new spending needs, such as defence, but to ensure medium-term sustainability, fiscal prudence must continue.
The new EU budget will need to involve both increasing budgetary resources and re-prioritising existing spending in areas such as cohesion and agricultural policy. A more integrated electricity market can help lower electricity costs and boost competitiveness through expanded cross-border interconnections, reduced electricity taxation, and stronger competition.

Switzerland: IMF Staff Concluding Statement-2025 Article IV Consultation Mission
July 1, 2025--Switzerland continues to benefit from strong fundamentals, highly credible institutions, and a skilled labor force, positioning it among the world's most competitive, resilient, and innovative economies. Economic performance has been strong. Nonetheless, Switzerland faces important challenges, including from evolving global economic conditions, rising global trade tensions, and persistent safe-haven pressures and franc appreciation.
The ongoing IMF Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) has called for strengthening supervisory, resolution, and crisis management frameworks, including to address gaps exposed during the Credit Suisse crisis, where the authorities are taking action. Navigating these challenges will require broad policy consensus and effective macroeconomic management. Priorities include safeguarding price stability, addressing emerging fiscal pressures, advancing strong financial sector reforms, implementing structural measures to boost productivity and competitiveness, and ratifying the new package of agreements with the EU to enhance external resilience.
Economic Outlook
With global headwinds, growth is projected to remain somewhat below potential in 2025-26. Growth is expected to reach 1.3 percent in 2025 (sporting events adjusted), up from 1 percent in 2024, driven by private consumption supported by real wage growth and stronger construction activity with easier monetary conditions.
