La economía de la UE entró en el nuevo año con una nota más débil de lo previsto; El resurgimiento de la pandemia el pasado otoño y la propagación exponencial de la nueva variante Omicron han provocado nuevas tensiones en los sistemas sanitarios y un aumento sin precedentes de las bajas laborales en muchos países de la UE.
Having regained the pre pandemic output level in summer last year, a moderate slowdown was already expected in the Autumn Forecast. However, since then headwinds to growth have intensified. After a soft patch, the economic expansion is set to regain pace in the second quarter of this year and remain robust over the forecast horizon. Following a strong recovery by 5.3% in 2021, the EU economy is now forecast to grow by 4.0% in 2022, as in the euro area, and by 2.8% in 2023 (2.7% in the euro area).
