Key role of Single Market in Europe 2020 Strategy

In March 2010, the European Commission presented its proposal for a European strategy for economic growth and jobs in the coming decade. The ‘Europe 2020 Strategy’
advocates a focus on structural reform measures to turn the EU into a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy, delivering high levels of employment, productivity and social cohesion. With this Strategy, the Commission seeks to
take the economic crisis as an opportunity to advance much-needed reforms to improve the competitiveness of the EU economy. An improved functioning of the Single Market will play a key role in making this strategy a success.
