EU Industry and Monetary Policy: The role of the European Investment Bank (EIB)

The European Economic and Social Committee has started on an exploratory project, whose main objective is to analyse new ways to improve the efficiency of European monetary policy in its impact on industry and real economy, mainly through the collaboration between the European Central Bank (ECB) and the European Investment Bank (EIB).

In theory, there may be different ways to make monetary expansion more focused in real and productive economy. From the point of view of the Project, the collaboration between the ECB and the EIB may be a practical, realistic and feasible way of achieving this goal in an efficient way.
