Transatlantic Leadership in the Global Economy — combines a series of efforts on analyzing the transatlantic economic relationship, such as:

- An Atlantic Council Commission “Transatlantic Leadership in the Global Economy.” Led by Grant Aldonas and board member Stuart Eizenstat, the group analyzes areas where the United States and Europe can work to improve global economic standards, such as foreign investment rules; energy security in a global economy; reform of the Bretton Woods institutions, and others.

- ongoing analysis of developments in the European economy through workshops and panel discussions with policymakers and senior economic experts from international organizations, EU governments, and international financial institutions; and

- a particular focus on Germany’s role in the transatlantic economy through an “American-German Dialogue about Transatlantic Economic Policy and Global Leadership,” which has convened a series of workshops in Washington, DC and Germany and produced two Atlantic Council publications: Germany and the Future of the Transatlantic Economy (August 2005) and The German Locomotive: Can it Drive the European Economy
 

Transatlantic Dialogue on Energy Security and Climate Change — aims to contribute to a reawakened transatlantic debate on energy policy and the threat of global climate change by convening expert conferences in Washington, DC and in Europe. Efforts thus far have included an expert workshop on “Transatlantic Energy Security” in October 2006 [read the summary] and a workshop on “Clean Air and Climate Change” in Brussels, in February 2007 [read the summary].
