What are the challenges to agreeing the European Recovery fund?

I discuss the European Recovery fund and the potential compromises being made in this CNBC interview.

 

With another EU summit deciding how the bloc will deliver a much-needed recovery and resilience tool, there has been much noise about the potential compromises and what they means for future integration.

Hetal Mehta

Senior European Economist

Hetal is an economist with a focus on the UK and Europe. She has worked for HM Treasury, Oxford Economics and Daiwa Capital Markets, but her real claim to fame is sharing a stage with Sir Ian McKellen. This love for drama is just as well given the excitement of keeping tabs on [insert latest European country]-xit. Away from work, you'll either find Hetal concocting culinary masterpieces (!) or punching the lights out at a HIIT class.
