Unchanged Support For The Euro Before Brexit But Optimism About EU'S Fut

The European Commission's Spring Eurobarometer survey shows unchanged support for the euro as a common currency.

However, the survey should not completely remove the concern that Brexit will increase political uncertainty in the EU as it was carried out before (21-31 May) the UK voted to leave the EU and as the negotiations between the UK and EU have still not started.

This said, the survey confirms a significant difference between the UK's (17%) and the rest of the EU's (55%) support for the euro as a single currency, suggesting a low likelihood of other potential EU leavers.

At an EU level, the optimism about the future of the EU declined further to 50% in spring 2016, from 58% a year earlier. This brings the optimism to the lowest level since the debt crisis in 2011-12.

In Germany in particular, the optimism about the EU's future has weakened and it remains below crisis levels after declining sharply in autumn 2015.
