We cannot think “growth” and then only, as an afterthought, care about inequalities. This doesn’t imply that the objective of engineering stronger growth and higher productivity has become secondary or peripheral.

When we met a year ago, I underscored that the global economy was still struggling to find a path to a confident recovery and stronger growth, six years after the onset of the crisis. Unfortunately, one year later the picture is not any better, and we are growing accustomed to talking about “secular stagnation” as the “new normal”. What can we do to reverse this?
