Very cool, I didn’t actually believe that other regulatory regimes emulated the EU, but I believe it a little bit now. The large number of GDPR emulations surprised me.
One thing I don’t quite get
This complicated architecture has also had a 5.2% growth rate in all its bodies combined, with most of the staff being highly educated (usually possessing a master’s degree).
This is a growth in the number of staff?
Both of these factors resulted in a signal of competence to other countries in the world, which results in a higher degree of trust in the EU’s decisions and policies.
Why does having more staff signal competence? Is it because more budget implies the agencies are being taken seriously?
I suspect it isn’t the number of staff but rather how highly elite and educated the EU body is. Other countries seem to trust their decisions on this ground.

Thanks for engaging with this post, Adrià!
Yup, it’s the growth in staff.
