Abstract
The present report contributes to the European Commission's aim to gather comprehensive, reliable and comparable information to support evidence-based policymaking. The promotion of deeper commercial ties across the Atlantic is key in the European Commission's strategy to create the conditions for a more dynamic and innovative European Union (EU) economy. This is why the 2015 Communication for all: Towards a more responsible trade and investment policy points to the conclusion of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Agreement as a priority for the trade policy. Against this background this reports focuses on the contribution of transatlantic trade to the creation of job opportunities in Europe. For this it offers an ample set of indicators related to the quantification of the employment supported by exports to the United States (US). This work builds on the report EU Export to the World: Effects on Employment and Income that was published in June 2015 by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) and Directorate General for Trade. It is grounded on the same methodology and on the same World Input-Output Database (WIOD) database.
