Abstract

The contribution of this paper is to estimate the single market uncertainty in the connectivity with the global financial network. This research presents the approach used in quantification of the risks based on the information derived from macro variables and standard deviation. The paper focuses on the technical fan-chart to link the data to the forecast predictions.
