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.

How Business Engages with the OECD on Economic Policy
Our Economic Policy Committee advises the OECD on macro–economic issues as well as priorities for structural reforms. It helps create an enabling policy environment that supports private sector–led growth and open, competitive markets. It contributes expertise on the main driving forces behind OECD projections for the global economy, key risks and priority policy messages via webinars and meetings with the OECD Economic Policy Committee leadership. It also undertakes economic surveys of Business at OECD members.
