Bruegel Annual Report 2017
The Bruegel annual report provides a broad overview of the organisation's work in the previous year.
The annual report includes an overview of Bruegel’s research, governance and financial statements, and takes stock of Bruegel’s accomplishments and impact during 2017.
The year was a good one for the European economy; the EU created around 3.7 million jobs and growth numbers were revised upwards. Yet these positive indicators should not give rise to complacency. Inaction risks leaving a number of key challenges to the side – with possibly significant negative long-term side effects. Complacency now will narrow choices tomorrow.
Bruegel will continue to engage with these policy challenges, bringing evidence-based analysis that informs and explains with the aim of promoting outcomes that are sustainable and equitable.
