Potential of the Internal Market
not yet fully exploited
1. Problems with implementation of IM rules
2. Some of the instruments are not fully adequate
3. Remaining barriers


Fiscal barriers
4. Barriers to the diffusion of knowledge (IPRs)
 Macro-economic gains of the Internal Market
could be doubled
12
DG ECFIN
Estimated gains from the Single
Market (as a percentage of GDP)
Already achieved: +2.2% in 2006
Potential for further benefits
1. Services Directive (0.5-1%)
2. Financial integration (1.1%)
3. Liberalisation of energy sector (0.8%)
4. Corporate tax harmonisation (0.2%)

DG ECFIN
Where next on the Single Market?
1. The latest empirical evidence on the
economic impact of the Single Market
2. The Single Market Review
3. Market monitoring as a tool to improve
the governance of the Single Market

Single Market Review

Process
– March 2007: Interim report (vision paper)
– Autumn 2007: Final report by Commission
– Spring 2008: Decision by European Council

Main elements
– Concrete policy actions
– Improved governance
15
Concrete policy actions aimed at
creating a Single Market :

DG ECFIN
Citizens and consumers  Increase the benefits for
consumers

An integrated economy  Develop synergies
between the SM and EMU

Knowledge society  Encourage use and diffusion
of new technologies

A well regulated SM  Make the environment more
business-friendly

A sustainable Europe Accompany the SM with
social and environmental policies

Open to the world Make Europe attractive to
foreign investors and export our rules and standard at
world level
16
DG ECFIN
Improved governance aimed at:

More decentralised and network-based

More responsive to the global context

Improving the communication

More impact-driven and result oriented
policies
based
on
a
better
understanding of markets
17
DG ECFIN
Improved governance aimed at
more impact-driven and result
oriented policies

Act where it will have a maximum impact

Act when market do not deliver

Assess consequences of policy interventions

Identify synergies between policy instruments
Proposal for market monitoring

Where next on the Single Market?
1. The latest empirical evidence on the
economic impact of the Single Market
2. The Single Market Review
3. Market monitoring as a tool to improve
the governance of the Single Market
19
DG ECFIN
Proposed two-stage approach
A.
B.
Sectoral screening on basis of
readily available indicators
In-depth investigation of market(s)
in selected sectors
Why?
Market monitoring is very time and
resource intensive
20
DG ECFIN
Criteria for sectoral screening
1. Economic importance of the sector
2. Importance of the sector for the
adjustment capacity of the EU economy
3. Signs of market malfunctioning from the
perspective
of
businesses
and
consumers

• Focus on ICT- related sectors, given that ICT has
become a “general purpose technology”, i.e. a
technology that is increasingly used in all activities
and all sectors of the economy.
• ICT diffusion also leads to important positive
spillover on market functioning and performance
in other sectors, namely by allowing firms to
improve their productive efficiency and their ability
to respond to changing market conditions.

Retail sector: Concluding remarks
Our analysis
Little evidence of problems in terms of integration with rest of the
economy
But



Less competition than in US
Less innovation than in US
No major differences in regulatory barriers vis-à-vis the US
but wide variation across Member States
Alternative view: McKinsey
Stronger emphasis put on the role of regulation in explaining
productivity gap
