European Restructuring Monitor
The European Restructuring Monitor (ERM) has been monitoring the extent of restructuring activities in Europe and their employment consequences since 2002. It now covers the 27 EU Member States, and Norway. The ERM produces a unique searchable database of fact sheets on restructuring cases, which helps to identify sectors and countries that are likely to undergo a phase of severe restructuring in the short to medium term.
Its data is indicative rather than comprehensive as it is based on company announcements. See 'about ERM data' for full details of sources, methodology and limitations.
Drawing on the data collected through the ERM over the previous three months, an overview report (ERM quarterly) outlines major European trends in restructuring.
The latest ERM product is a database of restructuring support instruments describing almost 400 schemes available in the EU member states.
