Economy in Focus #4 – Employment remains strong in Europe

We have analysed the current state of employment across Europe in the latest issue of our bi-monthly dive into the macroeconomic environment. Access the latest key insights in our latest issue of Economy in Focus, with commentary from Intrum's Senior Economist.

Despite the inflation crisis, the employment rate in the EU remains at a record high, showing the resilience of the European labour market. However, real wages have been affected as inflation outpaces wage growth, leading many Europeans to have less disposable income. Nevertheless, consumer confidence is rebounding, giving hope that the end of economic turbulence is in sight, despite lingering uncertainty, particularly in light of recent banking turmoil.
