Saturday, 4 June

10:00 - 11:30 (EEST)

Room: Sigma

Public investment in Eastern Europe and elsewhere is perceived as carrying an inherent corruption risk. Yet the Green transition will require public investment if its goals are to be met within the required timeframe. Furthermore, the leading European governments and institutions are signalling the return of the fiscal rules which will require a cut in investment rather than its expansion. How to address this conundrum? How can small countries ramp up their fiscal firepower while addressing any corruption concerns?
