This paper provides a descriptive analysis of where the Greek bailout money went since 2010 and finds that, contrary to widely held beliefs, less than âŹ10 billion or a fraction of less than 5% of the overall programme went to the Greek fiscal budget. In contrast, the vast majority of the money went to existing creditors in the form of debt repayments and interest payments. The resulting risk transfer from the private to the public sector and the subsequent risk transfer within the public sector from international organizations such as the ECB and the IMF to European rescue mechanisms such as the ESM still constitute the most important challenge for the goal to achieve a sustainable fiscal situation in Greece.

Diese Studie untersucht Trends in der Rekommunalisierung in der Entsorgungswirtschaft in Deutschland, analysiert mögliche ErklĂ€rungsansĂ€tze und ĂŒberprĂŒft diese empirisch. Wir finden Hinweise auf eine Rekommunalisierungsspirale: Kommunalisierung in der Vergangenheit verstĂ€rkt die Anreize fĂŒr Kommunen zur Kommunalisierung in der Zukunft. Dies liegt, so unsere Vermutung, zum einen an âAusstrahlwirkungenâ von benachbarten Kommunen, zum anderen an der sinkenden kommerziellen AttraktivitĂ€t privater Angebote in einem schrumpfenden Wettbewerbsmarkt. Damit können von der Option der kommunalen Eigenerstellung wettbewerbliche Effekte ausgehen. Auf Basis der empirischen Ergebnisse schlĂ€gt diese Studie einen Test vor, ob Kommunen die Möglichkeit und den Anreiz zur Rekommunalisierung haben, um zu prĂŒfen, ob die Option der kommunalen Eigenerstellung wettbewerbliche Effekte haben kann.

The ESMT innovation index 2014 â Electricity supply industry measures innovation activities of 16 major European electricity utilities in three dimensions: research, productivity and sustainability. French company EDF and Spanish company Iberdrola score highest in the overall ranking. While 14 out of 16 utilities were able to improve their innovation performance over the last 8 years, it can also be observed that utilities readjusted and focused their research activities between 2012 and 2014, and new patent registration substantially declined since 2012.
