Summary/Abstract: Through β and σ convergence analysis, the real convergence in the economies of the European Union can be traced. For this purpose, the main criteria for convergence policies are sought and shown, as well as their results, as this is important for the efficiency and competitiveness of these economies. The task of this type of analysis is to trace the extent to which convergent policies create trends and change policies in individual countries, because sometimes countries take decisions that differ from the single policy of the European Community. When carrying out this type of analysis, it is necessary to know the advantages and disadvantages of each of the methods and indicators for analysis and to assess in the specific situation which is more reliable.
