Description
The EU economy began 2025 stronger than expected. It is projected to keep growing at a modest rate this year, with growth expected to pick up in 2026, despite heightened global policy uncertainty and trade tensions. Inflation continues declining and is expected to reach the ECB 2% target this year. Risks remain tilted to the downside as global tensions might escalate.
