Based on the economic performance's similarities across countries before 2010, this study is mainly concerned with the evolution of experts' perceptions on the EFCs in Portugal and how do they differ in comparison with Italy, Greece and Spain. To achieve this goal the present study uses multivariate cluster analysis to group the European economies according to the experts' perceptions on the EFCs of their home country.
