A Green-Social Investment Plan

Policy Study

16/02/2017

Both private and public investment levels are low across the European countries. Now is the time for the governments to step in and help the economies back on a growth-track with a starting point in public investments. To increase investments and secure future growth this paper recommends a Green- Social Investment Plan. The effects of the investment plan are calculated based on FEPS-ECLM International Input-Output Model. The Green-Social Investment Plan will have large positive effects on job creation and GDP directly in the sectors the investments are made in and indirectly in the entire economy.
