Economic Policy
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
GMF’s Economic Policy Program works to strengthen transatlantic cooperation to solve economic problems and respond to the challenges of the 21st century economy.
The United States and Europe account for more than 40 percent of world economic activity -- close to $20 trillion in goods and services on an annual basis. Given the size and importance of this relationship, GMF's Economic Policy Program seeks to ensure that the benefits of globalization are distributed far and wide. Through in-depth research, targeted grantmaking, strategic convening, and outreach to key policymakers and the media, the program supports transatlantic leadership at the critical nexus of economic policy, trade and investment, development assistance, and agricultural markets and food security.
Aid & Development
GMF's work on aid and development aims to support research and convening on how North America and Europe can work together and with developing countries to enhance policy coherence on aid and trade policies to support sustainable economic growth and human security.
Economics, Trade & Investment
GMF’s Economics, Trade, & Investment program works to further policy-relevant transatlantic analysis and discussion on the most pressing global financial, trade, and economic issues. GMF’s work centers on the future of the global financial system; United States and European bilateral and global trade policies; economic competitiveness on both sides of the Atlantic; and the long-term impact of the global economic crisis and the sovereign debt crisis in Europe for the transatlantic economic relationship .
G20 in the Global Economy
The global economic crisis will have long-term implications for the transatlantic economic relationship and the global economy. Priorities for policy makers in the years to come will be driven by addressing challenges related to global imbalances, the management of budget deficits, the reform of the global financial institutions,and the re-working of the global economic governance structure.
