Economy in Focus #5 – Four key challenges that European companies face

Bimonthly, we analyse the state of the European economy. Access the latest key insights in July's issue of Economy in Focus, with commentary from Intrum's Senior Economist.

Revenue disruptions, prolonged inflation fears, wage setting and cost-cutting. These are four key challenges that European companies face.

The macroeconomic shocks have been lining up one after the other. The 2020s have already been eventful enough compared to an average decade. As the European economy is looking for a new equilibrium, companies struggle to balance offence and defence, unsure of which half of the pitch to play in. This issue drills down on the current challenges that companies across Europe are facing while drawing on some of the key findings from Intrum's annual European Payment Report.
