Pedro Passos Coelho, former Portuguese prime minister, is preparing a set of reforms aimed at boosting the national economy. The stated objective is to "unblock" the Portuguese economy, according to the information reported.
A study coordinated by Passos Coelho identified low productivity as the main structural problem of the country. This analysis serves as the basis for the development of the reform proposals that are being prepared.
The proposals resulting from this work will be delivered to the Government and the President of the Republic at the end of the year. This report comes in a context of debate about competitiveness and economic growth in Portugal.
