Overview
![](images/pos_logo.png)
The Euro zone is now faced with the gravest test of its resilience since its inception. How can the euro zone improve its growth prospects and build a more competitive economy? Do we have a credible solution to address the debt situations in Euro zone peripheral countries? Are we seeing any consensus emerging from the crisis on how to tackle jobs and structural reforms in the region? How can the Euro zone governance structure be further improved to prevent future crises?
