The Brussels Economic Forum (BEF) is the flagship annual economic event of the European Commission. In its 16th edition the BEF will focus on the following questions:
- What steps are needed to achieve a deeper and fairer Economic & Monetary Union?
- Which structural reforms are necessary to foster growth and sustain recovery?
- How can the EU be better prepared to cope with economic downturns?
- What are the lessons learned from economic adjustment programmes in member states that were worst affected by the crisis?
- How is the investment plan for Europe contributing to boosting investment in the EU?
