IMF-Europe: Engine for Global Trade, but Should Prepare for Rainy Day

November 13, 2017--Recovery in Europe has gained speed: overall real GDP growth is projected at 2.4 percent in 2017, faster than was expected in April 2017, and up from 1.7 percent in 2016.

In the euro area, growth has not been this even across the member countries for nearly two decades. In member countries that receive EU funds to help them bring their economies up to the level of their richer peers, an uptick in the flow of funds added to faster growth. In the United Kingdom, in turn, growth slowed when households felt the squeeze of a weaker pound.
