Progress towards meeting the economic criteria for EU accession: the EU Commission's 2015 assessments

In this Institutional Paper the Directorate General for Economic and Financial Affairs brings together into a single document the economic chapters of the 2015 European Commission's country reports for the seven enlargement countries Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Kosovo(*),1 Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. The reports assess progress achieved over the last 12 months in each of the countries, embedded in a broader assessment of trends over a 3 to 5 year horizon, with a view to advance necessary political and economic reforms as well as legal transformation in line with the EU criteria. The European Commission adopted the progress reports on 10 November 2015 as part of its 2015 Enlargement Strategy.
