The Directorate-General for Economy, Transformation and Industry (DG ECTI) supports the work of several key parliamentary committees and is committed to empowering Members of the European Parliament with the tools, expertise, and support they need to excel in their legislative, scrutiny, and budgetary roles. 

As a cornerstone of the European Parliament’s administrative structure, DG ECTI ensures the seamless functioning of committee activities, while fostering evidence-based decision-making informed by expert analysis and dedicated research services across the policy areas falling under its remit, including economic and monetary affairs, taxation, the internal market and consumer protection, industry, research and energy, the environment, climate, food safety, and public health.
