Not surprising. Deregulation is an important part of the Draghi report that aims to make Europe more competitive and is the spine of the current Commission’s agenda.
- Draghi report was quite surprising to Eastern Europe in general since many of the stats presented didn’t include Eastern Europe at all, which is quite deregulated already. Can’t wait for our politicians to enact deregulatory Mad Max.
