Information File: Investment
The economic and financial crisis has affected investment severely since 2008: at the end of 2014 investment levels lay at 16.9% below that of 2007. However investment is an important lever for growth. In this context the European Commission chaired by Jean-Claude Juncker has made the recovery of investment a priority. On 31st of January 2015, the Commission announced a recovery plan (the so-called Juncker plan) which wanted to lead to the mobilization of 315 billion euros by 2018. This plan was extended with an extension of the investments to 500 billion euros by 2020. This file on investment as a means to revive growth, brings together all of the documents published by the Foundation on this issue.
