Denmark: objective 2002
According to any probability Danish
should be called to decide for or counters
the adhesion of their country to the UEM
at the time of a referendum envisaged on
next 28 September. They had refused
adhesion in 1992, but it seems that today
the government, Prime Minister at the
head, are decided not to take the risk of a
new failure by too timid engagements.
Thus messages on the cost of a possible
non-adhesion are proposed for some time.
The procedure concerns a simple process.

Denmark: objective 2002
In all probability the Danes will be asked to
vote for or against their country joining EMU
in a referendum planned for 28 September.
Although they refused to join in 1992, it now
seems that the Government, led by the Prime
Minister, has decided not to risk another failure
due to lack of sufficiently strong commitments.
Therefore, for some time messages about the
cost of possible failure to join have been put
forward.

Denmark: aiming for 2002
The referendum on EMU participation is
currently set for September 28. In 1992 a
similar referendum failed, but the government
and the Prime Minister now appear less willing
to accept the renewed failure that could result
from half-hearted campaigning. They have thus
repeatedly stressed the costs of remaining
outside EMU.
The operating procedures are covered by a
simple process.
The procedure is simple.

economic dans la zone euro. Toutefois, ce
indicators) dynamisme s'accompagne d'une
accélération de la hausse des prix (liée
au cours du pétrole et au niveau de
l'euro) qui nous a amené à revoir
légèrement à la hausse nos prévisions
d'inflation.
• Un rythme de croissance élévé se
confirme
La croissance du PIB de la zone euro
qui est restée bridée pendant la
décennie 1990 à 2% l'an en moyenne
évolue enfin à un rythme soutenu. Elle
a été révisée en hausse au 1er
trimestre à 3,4% contre 3,1%.
• La confiance est ferme
La dérnière enquête européenne
publiée début août indique que le
sentiment économique générale est
resté stable en juillet pour le 5ème
mois consécutif.
• La dynamique de l'emploi est bien
en place
La forte reprise de l'activité dans la
zone euro se traduit sur le marché du
travail par une nette baisse du taux de
chômage : 9,1 % en juin contre 9,9%
un an auparavant et 10,9% en juin
1998.
Cette baisse concerne l'ensemble des
pays européens. Elle est spectaculaire
en Espagne avec un taux qui est passé
de plus de 20% en 1997 à 13,9% au
2ème trimestre 2000. En France, le
chômage est à son plus bas niveau
depuis 9 ans. En Allemagne et en
Italie après un début timide, la
dynamique s'est bien enclenchée.
Cette dynamique se poursuivra en
ligne avec la croissance. La barre des
8% de chômeurs devrait donc être
franchie en 2001.

confirm the dynamism of the activity in the
zone euro. However, this dynamism is
accompanied by an acceleration of the rise
of the prices (related during the oil and the
level of the euro) which led us to slightly
re-examine with the rise our forecasts of
inflation.
• A rate of growth élévé is confirmed the
growth of the GDP of the zone euro which
remained attached during the decade 1990
to 2% per annum on average
evolves/moves finally at an intensive pace.
It was revised raises some in the 1st
quarter with 3,4% against 3,1%.
• Confidence is firm the dérnière inquires
European published at the beginning of
August indicates that the economic feeling
general remained stable in July for the 5th
consecutive month.
• The dynamics of employment is well
places from there the strong renewal of
activity in the zone euro is translated on
the labour market by a clear fall of the rate
of unemployment: 9,1 % in June against
9,9% a year before and 10,9% in June
1998. This fall relates to the whole of the
European countries. It is spectacular in
Spain with a rate which passed of more
than 20% in 1997 to 13,9% in 2nd quarter
2000. In France, unemployment has been
on its low level for 9 years. In Germany
and Italy after a timid beginning, dynamics
engaged well.
This dynamics will continue on line with
the growth. The bar of the 8% unemployed
should thus be crossed into 2001.

the dynamism of activity in Euroland.
However, this dynamism is accompanied by an
increasingly rapid rise in prices (linked to oil
prices and the rate of the Euro) which have led
us to revise our inflation forecasts slightly
upwards.
• A high rate of growth is confirmed
Growth in Euroland’s GDP, which remained
below 2% per annum on average in the 1990s,
is at last developing at a sustained rate. It has
been revised upwards for the first quarter, to
3.4% instead of 3.1%.
• Confidence is firm
The last European survey published at the
beginning of August shows that in July the
general economic mood remained stable for the
5th month running.
• Positive developments in employment are
well under way
In the employment market, the strong recovery
of activity in Euroland is reflected by a distinct
drop in the rate of unemployment: 9.1% in June
as compared with 9.9% a year earlier and
10.9% in June 1998.
This drop has affected all European countries.
It has been spectacular in Spain with a rate
which has gone down from over 20% in 1997
to 13.9% in the 2nd quarter of 2000. In France,
unemployment is at its lowest level for 9 years.
In Germany and in Italy, after a timid start,
positive trends have emerged.
These dynamics will continue in line with
growth. Therefore, unemployment should fall
below the 8% threshold in 2001.
brisk pace in the euro zone. Yet at the same
time price rises have quickened due to higher
oil prices and the weakness of the euro. We
have thus set our inflation forecasts a little
higher.
• Strong growth confirmed
After averaging an unimpressive 2% a year in
the 1990s, euro-zone growth has got onto a
firmer track, with the first-quarter figure
revised upward from 3.1 to 3.4%.
• Confidence holding high
Results of the latest Eurostat survey published
at the beginning of August show general
economic sentiment holding steady in July for
the fifth month in a row.
• Unemployment falling steadily
The vigorous upturn in euro-zone growth has
brought steep falls in unemployment, down to
9.1% this June compared with 9.9% a year
earlier and 10.9% in June 1998.
All countries are benefiting. The decline has
been particularly spectacular in Spain, where
unemployment fell from 20% in 1997 to 13.9%
in the second quarter of this year, while in
France the rate is down to a 9-year low.
Finally, improvement is now taking hold in
Germany and Italy after a hesitant beginning.
These trends should continue along with
growth, and euro-zone unemployment should
fall below the 8% mark next year.
