Memo: Concluding trade deals could boost EU’s GDP by 2 per cent

As recent estimates show, deepening relationships between the EU and its key trading partners can contribute significantly to Europe's recovery. If the EU pursues its ambitious external trade agenda, this could boost the EU's GDP by 2% or more than €250 billion. This is equivalent to adding an economy of the size of Austria or Denmark. An ambitious agenda could also help create more than 2 million jobs across the EU.
