Figure 4 shows the estimates of the effects on the European GDP-level with the investment pact,- that is the additional resources. It is shown how the investment pact increases GDP. In 2013 GDP growth increases by 0.36 percentage points, meaning that if GDP is expected to grow by just above 1 percent without the investment pact GDP, it will grow by close to 1.5 percent if the investment pact is realized.
