    Why OECD work on Economic Policy Matters

    The OECD is a leading purveyor of cross–cutting statistics and fact–based policy recommendations. Through a unique system of peer reviews and monitoring of implementation, these OECD recommendations have important bearing on the business environments in OECD and many emerging economies. The Economic Policy Committee offers a unique channel by which the private sector can, at an early stage, work to shape the policy recommendations of landmark OECD publications, such as the OECD Economic Outlook or Country Reports.
