Abstract / Bemerkung
This paper empirically studies whether it pays off (in terms of economic growth)
to fulfill the convergence criteria on the public budget and participation in the Euro–
zone. The analysis is based on data of European economies with a special focus on
twelve Euro–zone members and a control group of six non–Euro countries for the
years from 1970 to 2014. The results show that growth is higher if the debt to
GDP ratio is below 60 % compared to values above it. Moreover, a comparison
with European economies outside the Euro–zone shows higher growth values for
Euro–members than for the control group. Regression estimations reveal a negative
relationship between the two variables for the Euro–group. For the control group
the relationship is not statistically significant.
