Position Paper: Industrial Accelerator Act – requests from Swedish Enterprise

The European Commission has proposed an Industrial Accelerator Act with the aim of strengthening domestic manufacturing, accelerating decarbonisation, and regulating foreign investment in strategic sectors, while promoting “Made in the EU” and low-carbon products. While we broadly share the Commission’s assessment of the challenges, we consider many of the proposed measures to be problematic from a competitiveness perspective. In this short paper, we summarise our primary recommendations to improve the proposal.
