The Circular Economy in Cities and Regions of the European Union
April 15, 2025-Abstract
The transition to a circular economy is critical for achieving sustainable development, resource efficiency, and building a resilient future for all. Over the past decade, the European Union (EU) has demonstrated an unprecedented commitment to advancing a circular economy, advocating for action at national, regional and local level. However, most economies remain predominantly linear.
This report provides a comprehensive analysis of circular economy practices, challenges, and opportunities in cities and regions, building on a survey of 64 cities and regions of the EU, lessons learned from 10 place-based policy dialogues in specific cities and regions, and desk research. The report concludes with policy recommendations to accelerate a territorial approach to the circular economy for place-based policies that are aligned with EU-wide goals.

ESMA publishes implementing rules on Liquidity Management Tools for funds
April 15, 2025--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU's financial markets regulator and supervisor, is publishing today the draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) and a final report on the Guidelines (GL) on Liquidity Management Tools (LMTs).
These provisions will make EU fund managers better equipped to manage the liquidity of funds, in particular in case of market stress. In addition, the draft RTS will also clarify the functioning of LMTs, such as the use of side pockets for which rules currently vary significantly across the EU. Through their role in mitigating financial stability risks, these rules are an important contribution to the ongoing debate on Non-Bank Financial Intermediation.

ECB-Meeting of 5-6 March 2025
Account of the monetary policy meeting of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank
April 3, 2025--Held in Frankfurt am Main
1. Review of financial, economic and monetary developments and policy options
Financial market developments
Ms Schnabel started her presentation by noting that, since the Governing Council's previous monetary policy meeting on 29-30 January 2025, euro area and US markets had moved in opposite directions in a highly volatile political environment.
In the euro area, markets had focused on the near-term macroeconomic backdrop, with incoming data in the euro area surprising on the upside.
Lower energy prices responding in part to the prospect of a ceasefire in Ukraine, looser fiscal policy due to increased defence spending and a potential relaxation of Germany's fiscal rules had supported investor sentiment. This contrasted with developments in the United States, where market participants’ assessment of the new US Administration's policy decisions had turned more negative amid fears of tariffs driving prices up and dampening consumer and business sentiment.
A puzzling feature of recent market developments had been the dichotomy between measures of policy uncertainty and financial market volatility. Global economic policy uncertainty had shot up in the final quarter of 2024 and had reached a new all-time high, surpassing the peak seen at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. By contrast, volatility in euro area and US equity markets had remained muted, despite having broadly traced dynamics in economic policy uncertainty over the past 15 years.
