Ifølge den nye undersøgelse, som er bestilt af Det Europæiske Økonomiske og Sociale Udvalg, skaber grænseoverskridende tjenesteydelser nye job og økonomisk vækst. Sådanne tjenesteydelser er positive for alle EU-lande og for de forskellige typer job – både arbejds- og vidensintensive. Dokumentet viser, at det er til fordel for EU's økonomi at undgå en streng regulering af det indre marked for grænseoverskridende tjenesteydelser. En nedgang i andelen af grænseoverskridende tjenesteydelser med 1 % vil koste EU's økonomi ca. 8 mia. EUR.

It is vital to foster economic growth; only if Europe has a strong economy, can it better face the political and social challenges that stand before it. This was one of the main messages of the EESC opinions adopted yesterday in Brussels. The EESC calls for more investment– both private and public – directly in the countries that need it most.
