This policy study offers an alternative method to assess the expected value added of Next Generation EU. Using domestic fiscal multipliers as a benchmark in the case studies of Germany, France, and Italy, this study suggests that the real impact of NGEU, especially through grants, could exceed those observed with loan-based stimuli, providing a potentially stronger economic boost.

Read 'How can RepowerEU consolidate recovery?'

This policy study is part of the Recovery Watch series, which monitors the Recovery and Resilience Facility’s social impact across various countries. The series is led by FEPS, FES, and IEV, in collaboration with leading research organisations.

The new Screening and Border Procedures: Towards a seamless migration process?

By Evangelia (Lilian) Tsourdi – In collaboration with FES and European Policy Centre

 

This new policy study analyses the newly adopted reforms introduced by the New Pact on Migration and Asylum, focusing on the three parts of the Pact’s revamped procedural set-up: screening, border asylum processing and border return procedures. Raising points for further reflection, this policy study suggests several possible initiatives, including actions to ensure adequate financial support, guarantees in relation to deprivation of liberty and for the protection of vulnerable applicants, and effective monitoring in the new system.

This is the first of four policy studies focusing on the implementation of the New Pact. 

By Angelica Vascotto – In collaboration with Centro Studi di Politica Internazionale (CeSPI) and Karl-Renner-Institut
