Sustaining Economic Growth: Outlook and Challenges

In this speech delivered at the Bank of Greece, Angel Gurría first sets the scene by outlining the global macroeconomic prospects including some of the risks that lurk in the background of a seemingly reassuring outlook. Next, he zooms in on Europe. Then he turns to the structural reforms that are under way or that are required to deliver faster growth and convergence. In the process, he addresses some of the key challenges facing Greece.
