ECB Draghi Calls For Tax Cuts To Spur Recovery

Governments should be looking to cut taxes as a fragile euro zone recovery begins to take hold, Mario Draghi, the president of the European Central Bank told an audience at the World Economic Forum.

In a wide-ranging speech, Draghi detailed what European countries should now be looking to achieve as the continent emerges from recession.

“Overall the outlook for structural reforms are by and large positive,” he said. “There is now a very diffused awareness of a need to do these reforms. It shows in polls, it shows in votes, it shows also unfortunately in a very high level of unemployment.”
