This paper investigates the impact of demographic changes on regional specialisation across Greek NUTS2 regions from 2001 to 2021. It explores the relationship between age-specific variations in the economically active population and gross value added (GVA) across different economic sectors. Using demographic and GVA data alongside spatial analysis techniques such as spatial regression models, median Local Moran’s I, and location quotient, the study identifies spatial autocorrelation patterns. Findings reveal strong correlations between the economically active population and GVA, highlighting demographic factors’ crucial role in regional economic performance. Over the period 2001 to 2021, the 15–24 and 25–34 age groups generally experienced declining growth rates in total, male, and female economically active populations, while the 45–54 and 55–64 age groups saw increases. Regions adjacent to those with higher economically active populations showed high–high clustering. Especially, Attiki and Kentriki Makedonia, the two metropolitan regions of Greece, influence neighbouring regions through economic spillover effects, fostering economic sector clustering and emphasising regional specialisation. These findings highlight the complex interplay between demographic shifts and regional economic outcomes, noting spatial disparities and the need for targeted policy interventions. The study provides empirical evidence demonstrating how demographic changes influence regional economic development across different regions.

The World Bank (WB) has described the European Union (EU) as a convergence machine, and the real and institutional convergence has been achieved for a long period of time, and EU’s cohesion policy, alongside the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), remains crucial for driving reforms and fostering investments that promote growth. But, in the last two decades this convergence machine has stopped working, and the convergence process has turned in the divergence. The divergence process poses a great risk for the smooth functioning of the EU, and it increases vulnerability of the EU to negative economic shocks. Productivity and institutional convergence are a necessary precondition for the smooth functioning of the EU, reducing differences in standards of living, increasing resilience, and achieving environmental sustainability. In the present paper, we will apply log t-test over the period 2003–2023 to investigate the formation of productivity and institutional convergence clusters. Our goal is to identify which countries belong to the poor productivity/institutional clubs, and to provide the necessary policy implications. Results indicate the existence of multiple steady states, which means that EU is vulnerable to external economic shocks
