This effectiveness gap in economic governance has become even more visible during recent multiple crises (ranging from the financial crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic and the ever more manifest climate emergency, to the energy and inflation crises reinforced by the Russian invasion of Ukraine). The EU reacted to all of these crises with a large array of instruments, in more or less effective ways. However, going forward the EU needs an effective ex ante framework geared towards the objective of improving the well-being of its citizens with adequate instruments, across the whole geographical area of the EU, rather than the current focus on individual member states.
