European law: a new European Consumer Agenda

Consumer expenditure, amounting to 56% of EU GDP, reflects the enormous power of the consumer to drive forward the European economy. Only empowered and confident consumers can fully exploit the potential of the Single Market and enhance innovation and growth. This is why the European Commission’s strategic vision for EU consumer policy for the years to come – adopted today – aims to maximise consumer participation and trust in the market. The Consumer Agenda presents measures designed to achieve the objectives of the EU’s growth strategy, Europe 2020.
