In 2019, the EAEU officially celebrated its five-year anniversary. The aim of the article is to investigate various issues such as the Union's aggregate economic performance over the past five years, i.e. from 2014 to 2019, its shifts towards macroeconomic stability and macroeconomic convergence, as well as ability to create common markets in banking and insurance sectors. In the conclusion of the paper a short review of findings and recommendations on potential further economic steps are provided.
