Join the Macroeconomic Globalization Indicators launch

Eurostat invites you to follow the launch of a new dataset – Macroeconomic Globalization Indicators. The dataset, created in collaboration with the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre, will shed light on EU‘s participation and exposure within global value chains. 

The new data will provide a deeper understanding of EU’s global economic interactions and supply chains. They will also help to assess how the need for strategic autonomy aligns with the opportunities in the European single market.

The new indicators are based on the Full International and Global Accounts for Research in input-Output analysis (FIGARO), the EU’s inter-country supply, use, and input-output model and tables. The indicators are designed to capture the direct and indirect economic effects across both industries and countries, providing a nuanced understanding of the EU’s economic interdependencies, strengths and vulnerabilities.

The presentation of the indicators will take place on 4 December 2024 with the participation of:

• Mariana Kotzeva, Director-General of Eurostat
• Sabine Weyand, Director-General for Trade
• Bernard Magenhann, acting Director-General of the Joint Research Centre
• Sanjiv Mahajan, President of the International Input-Output Association.

The event will be streamed live via the European Commission streaming service and Eurostat’s LinkedIn page and everyone is invited to tune in.
