A new transatlantic study which is just released, warns against the impact of economic and political instability on the transatlantic economy. In the context of a cyclical slowdown in global growth, uncertainty is testing the resilience of the world’s largest marketplace.
The research was conducted independently by Daniel Hamilton and Joseph Quinlan for the Foreign Policy Institute at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies and commissioned by the American Chamber of Commerce to the EU (AmCham EU) and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The Transatlantic Economy 2019 highlights how the EU-US relationship remains the largest of its kind in the world. The transatlantic economic partnership generates close to €5 trillion in commercial sales a year and accounts for half of total global personal consumption. No place in the world has attracted more US foreign direct investment (FDI) than Europe. Since the start of this decade, 58.4% of US global investment went to Europe.
This year’s edition of the transatlantic study features new inserts on topics such as Brexit and the EU-US auto trade and investment landscape, as well as individual profiles for 30 European countries and all US states.
