The 2017 EUROFRAME Economic Assessment of the Euro Area report has been released.

This Euroframe Report presents an assessment of the euro area economic outlook for 2017 and beyond based on a synopsis of the forecasts of Euroframe institutes. In times of increased uncertainty and with tailwinds from lower oil prices fading, the euro area economy is expected to expand at a moderate pace with GDP rising by 1.6 per cent and 1.5 per cent in 2017 and 2018, respectively. The report also contains brief country notes summarizing the individual institute’s own country forecasts. In the focus section the impact of Brexit is discussed, based on work done in the Euroframe institutes..
