European prospects by city, region and sector
How are the forecasts produced?
The forecasts are produced using a combination of econometric models and the intelligence gathered from a network of country and regional experts.
The European Sectoral forecasts are underpinned by E3ME, a large-scale econometric model developed through part-funding from the European Commission (DG Research). The model covers some 40 sectors in each of the EU27 member states plus Norway and Switzerland.
For the European Regional Prospects report, the process of moving from
model results to final forecast involves undergoing several iterations
or 'forecast rounds' whereby regional experts are consulted to give their
opinions on short-term changes and longer-term trends. This information
is then embedded within each successive projection, adding value to the
final forecast.
