excerto entrevista de Klaus Regling (Wirtschaftswoche, Alemanha)


The only country I am worried about is Portugal, independently of Brexit. The government there is rolling back the reforms. As the European institutions noted after their recent country surveillance mission, Portugal is becoming less competitive again as a result of this. The lack of competitiveness was one important reason for the crisis in Portugal. Now Portuguese politicians have raised the minimum wage and salaries in the public sector again and they have shortened the working hours again. There could also be new budgetary risks if the government solves the problems in the banking sector with state aid. We have to pay a lot of attention to what happens.
