Quarterly Report on the Euro Area (QREA), Vol. 22, No. 1 (2023)

This edition analyses first the social impact of the high energy and food inflation, and second, the functioning of labour market in relation to labour shortages. The paper then comes back to the analysis of two more longer term issues, that are relevant for future growth, starting from the trend decline in total factor productivity observed in the euro area like in other developed economies and concluding with the impact on trade of the recent COVID shock.
