Scientific advisory services to the European Parliament's Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs supporting the Monetary Dialogue with the European Central Bank

Since March 2015 the Kiel Institute for the World Economy advises the European Parliament on issues related to monetary and economic policy.

Project

Global supply chains, environmental regulation and green innovation

The project analyses how participation in global supply chains hampers or facilitates the investment in state-of-the-art production equipment or production processes that are more environmentally efficient and related to this investigates the effectiveness of incentives such as financial grants, energy taxes, or carbon trading schemes at changing carbon emissions. These issues are investigated using firm level data for Germany and China.
Project

Joint Economic Forecast

Embedded in a comprehensive outlook for the world economy, the Joint Economic Forecast („Gemeinschaftsdiagnose“, GD) prepares in-debth analyses and forecasts for the German economy (detailed 2-year horizon and 5-year medium term projections including potential output estimations). These forecasts are input for the projections of the Federal Government in Germany. The forecasting exercise is carried out jointly by a group of economic research institutes. Based on the diagnostic results and taking into account important issues in the public debate on economic issues the institutes also come up with policy recommendations.
