La industria manufacturera desempeña un papel clave en las transiciones ecológica y digital y es uno de los principales empleadores de la Unión. Este informe examina la rica cartera de proyectos de la UE de apoyo a la fabricación avanzada, principalmente en el marco de las asociaciones Fábricas del Futuro y Made in Europe.

The aim of this paper is to look at possible scenarios of demand for a retail-only euro central bank digital currency and assess their impact on bank’s balance sheets, to explore potential effects on bank’s intermediation capacity and financial stability. The European Central Bank, in the context of the Eurosystem investigative exercise, has tackled this issue by proposing a set of illustrative scenarios for the adoption of a Euro CBDC (see Adalid et al., 2022 and discussion therein). We expand their analysis to include more detailed results at country level by making use of individual banks data. For each demand scenario, we estimate the potential shock on deposits making use of MS-level data. We then apply these shocks at individual bank level and compare them to a set of alternative adjustment channels, including free reserves, wholesale funding and assets (deleveraging) to obtain a distribution of the ratio of shocks to different channels. Results show that per capita demand scenarios around 3 thousand euro do not seem to present risks for financial stability in the aggregate, though they present asymmetric impacts and could give raise to shifts in the structure of balance sheets and interbank markets.

Los Premios Europeos a la Promoción Empresarial llegan a su 17ª edición y este año, en particular, ha sido motivo de celebración, ya que el número de candidaturas a los premios ha vuelto a los niveles anteriores a la pandemia.

The objective of the report is to present the ‘state of play’ in the introduction of new Active Labour Market Policies (ALMPs) and their use by the Public Employment Services (PES) between 2015 and 2022 to respond to short- and long-term labour market challenges. Both long-term structural changes within the labour market as well as short-term specific changes, such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, have called for an adaptation of ALMPs to cater to the needs of clients. The report recommends, in particular, continuing efforts to serve disadvantaged groups, strengthening partnerships to close skills gaps and overcome skills shortages (including via cooperation with employers and increased effort to support digitalisation and greening), reinforcing activities to respond to demographic change (e.g. better targeting towards older workers, migrants, women).

Los sectores de la pesca y la acuicultura, al igual que muchas otras actividades económicas de la Unión Europea, están cada vez más presionados para eliminar rápidamente su dependencia de los combustibles fósiles.

This paper explores new forms of service delivery in Public Employment Services (PES). The purpose is to provide information for PES on the evolution and implementation of new forms of service delivery, particularly developing themes explored during a PES Network Thematic Review Workshop held in Athens on July 5th and 6th 2022. The event was hosted by the Greek PES DYPA and focussed on how PES can improve services to citizens so that they can address challenges in a rapidly evolving labour market. The practices presented by PES illustrated the importance of focussing on improving the customer experience.

The food we eat has major impacts on our health, on local ecosystems and on our planet as a whole. Our current food consumption habits are both contributing to worsening the climate and environmental crises and fueling a global public health crisis caused by malnutrition and obesity. Radical system-wide changes are urgently needed to correct this. It is crucial to support, as much as possible, the adoption of healthier and more sustainable diets and food cultures, contributing to a long-term solution to these crises. This Scientific Opinion presents a set of recommendations for a mix of policy interventions to overcome the barriers that are preventing consumers from eating in a healthier and more sustainable way, which would complement the current initiatives under the Farm to Fork strategy.
