This is the first study on the work of the Eurogroup - the monthly informal meetings of the euro area's finance ministers, the Commission, and the European Central Bank. It: explains how the particular working method applied by the Eurogroup impacts on the conduct and outcome of negotiations among ministers; considers the Eurogroup's role in historical episodes of policy coordination, such as the management of the Stability and Growth Pact; and assesses how the Eurogroup model can be seen as a template for other policy areas, such as foreign and security policy.
