Information sharing in competition policy
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 50
Competition rules governing information sharing must balance two primary risks: permissive rules may facilitate tacit collusion or explicit cartel conduct, while overly restrictive frameworks can chill legitimate collaboration and create market inefficiencies. This paper reviews how different forms of information exchange affect firm incentives and market outcomes, drawing on recent economic literature. It also examines how competition authorities across OECD jurisdictions have approached the issue in practice, including through enforcement, case law and guidance. The paper aims to clarify the main factors that shape competitive risk and how those factors are reflected in current assessment and enforcement.

Competition and regulation in the healthcare sector
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 48
Competition can control costs and incentivise efficiency in the healthcare sector. This paper examines how regulation interacts with competition in healthcare markets and identifies areas where competition authorities can advocate for pro-competitive regulation. It presents a framework for identifying and reviewing regulatory barriers to competition, and it discusses empirical evidence and relevant experience by competition authorities. It finds that rules such as needs based entry restrictions, or incumbents’ involvement in licensing decisions, can limit entry and reduce capacity. Similar concerns arise in professional regulation, where restrictive definitions of tasks and limited portability of licences can exacerbate workforce shortages and reduce access. The development of digital services can also be slowed down by regulatory barriers, such as the lack of interoperability between electronic records systems. Finally, pro-competitive regulation can support patients and payers by providing them with usable information.

Quantification des stratégies industrielles de 20 pays Membres de l’OCDE
2019‑2023
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: français
Pages: 58
Ce rapport contient une analyse comparative des dépenses de politique industrielle engagées dans 20 pays de l’OCDE durant la période 2019-2023, les données utilisées à cet effet provenant de la base « Quantification des stratégies industrielles » (QuIS). En moyenne, le soutien par la politique industrielle a augmenté, le total des subventions et dépenses fiscales étant passé de 1.34 % à 1.55 % du PIB entre 2019 et 2023. Cette progression tient essentiellement à l’accroissement du soutien public à l’investissement en capital fixe, au soutien au coût de l’énergie et à la transition énergétique. Le soutien sectoriel reste central, en particulier dans le domaine de l’énergie, les activités manufacturières et les transports. Les subventions directes (en particulier celles engagées à travers les programmes financés par l’Union Européenne) ont augmenté plus fortement que les dépenses fiscales, alors que les instruments financiers se sont maintenus à 0.92 % du PIB. Malgré la perception selon laquelle on assisterait à une prolifération de nouveaux instruments de politique industrielle, la plupart des dispositifs datent en fait d’avant 2019 et ont une longue durée de vie.

Rethinking professional services regulation
New evidence from the OECD Product Market Regulation Indicators
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Langue: anglais
Pages: 57
Professional services play a central role in modern economies, both as providers of high-skilled services and as key inputs into a wide range of downstream activities. While regulation of these services is commonly justified by information asymmetries and negative externalities, concerns persist that regulatory frameworks may exceed what is necessary to protect consumers and limit negative spillovers, thereby restricting entry, limiting competition, and reducing productivity. This paper examines how six professions - lawyers, notaries, accountants, architects, civil engineers, and real estate agents - are regulated across fifty countries, drawing on the OECD Product Market Regulation (PMR) database and indicators. It documents substantial cross-country and cross-profession variation in entry and conduct rules, with licensing remaining the dominant regulatory model and restrictive entry requirements more prevalent than conduct restrictions. The analysis shows that many regulatory approaches appear poorly aligned with the actual risks posed by professional activities and that demand-side tools remain underdeveloped. The findings suggest scope for reform through the recalibration of entry requirements, reduction in conduct restrictions, and stronger consumer-facing mechanisms. Aligning regulation more closely with market failures could expand access to professional services, support geographic and social mobility, increase competition, and generate productivity gains across the wider economy.

The relationship between taxes, benefits and life satisfaction
Evidence from European countries
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 47

This paper examines how tax-benefit systems relate to subjective well-being in European countries using both micro- and macro-level data. At the micro level, net transfers are strongly and positively associated with life satisfaction among the bottom half of the income distribution, while net taxes have only weak or slightly negative associations for the top income quintile. At the aggregate level, the tax burden is negatively associated with life satisfaction, but this relationship is weaker, or even offset, in countries with high government effectiveness. Overall, inclusive tax-benefit systems can enhance subjective well-being when combined with good governance.

Case prioritisation and prosecutorial discretion by competition authorities
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 50
Given the limited resources available to competition authorities, decisions around case prioritisation and prosecutorial discretion play a fundamental role in shaping the effectiveness of competition policy. This paper, supported by original survey evidence, highlights how such decisions influence the actions that competition authorities take and reflect their strategy and overall priorities. Effective case prioritisation requires striking a balance between discretion, transparency and cost-benefit based decision making. Authorities should consider developing procedures and public guidance to provide clarity and transparency to these decisions, and develop healthy case pipelines to make the exercise meaningful.

OECD MAGIC Database of Industrial Subsidies
Sera disponible le 1 Juin 2026 à 11:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 48
Industrial subsidies have reached their highest levels since the global financial crisis, amounting to USD 108 billion in 2024 and reflecting governments’ renewed interest for industrial policy in a challenging context for global trade and supply chains. Using detailed firm-level data from the 2026 release of the OECD MAnufacturing Groups and Industrial Corporations (MAGIC) database, this report finds that the production of solar energy equipment, semiconductors, and heavy industries were the most subsidised industrial sectors over the period 2005-24. The database also finds manufacturers based in China to receive relatively more subsidies than their competitors based in other jurisdictions, mainly in the form of government grants and below-market borrowings. Available evidence suggests that these subsidies are contributing to shaping global markets by increasing the global market share of recipient firms.

National security considerations in competition enforcement
Sera disponible le 2 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 48
National security considerations are becoming increasingly prominent in economic policymaking, reflecting geopolitical developments, technological change and growing attention to economic security, resilience and technological capability. As these considerations extend beyond traditional defence-related domains, they are intersecting more frequently with competition enforcement across a widening range of sectors, such as energy, telecommunications and advanced technologies. This paper examines the implications for competition authorities. It develops an analytical framework to distinguish between concerns that can be assessed using established competition law tools, where they can be expressed as competition-relevant effects, and those that fall outside the analytical remit of competition authorities and require assessment by governments or specialised bodies. Drawing on cross-jurisdictional experience, the paper analyses how national security considerations arise in the assessment of competitive constraints, merger control, co-ordinated conduct, unilateral conduct and remedy design. It identifies key considerations for preserving analytical boundaries, institutional roles, legal predictability and effective enforcement in an evolving policy environment.

The impact of population ageing on tax revenues in OECD countries
Sera disponible le 2 Juin 2026 à 11:00 CET
Langue: anglais
Pages: 48
Population ageing is a major structural trend across OECD countries, with potentially significant implications for public finances, yet its effects on tax revenues remain relatively understudied. This working paper examines the potential effects of demographic change on tax systems by analysing the distribution of tax bases across age groups and assessing the impact of ageing. It also explores how tax design may further exacerbate revenue pressures. The paper then analyses the implications of population ageing for labour income tax revenues as the working-age population evolves and considers how the relative importance of other tax bases such as consumption, capital income, and wealth-related taxes, may change depending on policy design. It also presents simulations of tax-to-GDP ratios from 1950 to 2060 that isolate the mechanical effects of demographic change under a no-policy-change scenario. These simulations illustrate how population ageing may influence tax revenues across OECD countries over time, as well as countries’ different exposures. The paper also highlights how tax system vulnerability to ageing is shaped by both demographic trends and tax design. Finally, it discusses potential policy considerations and areas of further work.

Langues: français-anglais
Pages: 30
La politique industrielle est revenue au premier plan dans les pays de l’OCDE, face à des défis croissants : ralentissement de la productivité, affaiblissement de la concurrence, vulnérabilités des chaînes d’approvisionnement et nécessité d’accélérer les transitions écologique et numérique. Si les risques de distorsions de marché et de protection des entreprises en place demeurent, les coûts de l’inaction ont fortement augmenté.
Ce manuel propose des orientations pratiques pour concevoir et mettre en œuvre des stratégies industrielles efficaces. S’appuyant sur les travaux de l’OCDE et des exemples de pays membres, il met l’accent sur la manière d’agir efficacement, tout en préservant des marchés ouverts, des conditions de concurrence équitables et la sécurité économique. La politique industrielle inclut à la fois des interventions sectorielles et des conditions-cadres horizontales (telles que les marchés de capitaux ou la mobilité du travail).
Le manuel s’articule en deux parties. La Partie I présente un cadre en quatre phases : orientation stratégique, coordination, mise en œuvre et évaluation. La Partie II examine la conception des instruments de politique publique à travers cinq phases : justification, champ d’application, forme, sélection et évaluation.

Strengthening Supply Chains through Efficiency, Resilience, AI and Environmental Performance
Sera disponible le 3 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 46
Global supply chains are being reshaped by multiple forces, but two have systemic reach: the rapid uptake of artificial intelligence (AI) and the expansion of environmental requirements linked to market access. Addressing both depends on a shared foundation – digitalised, interoperable and trusted trade systems. This report examines how trade facilitation policies and tools enabled by AI and broader digital technologies can enhance supply chain resilience, efficiency and environmental performance, while effectively responding to new data and verification needs. Reaping the benefits of AI requires a functioning paperless trade environment with regulatory and technical interoperability at its core. Preconditions for this are high levels of digitisation and data standardisation, legal certainty for electronic transactions, and openness to cross-border data flows. Co-ordinated border management and enhanced international co-operation are critical to deploying digital and AI-enabled solutions that preserve efficiency while advancing resilient and environmentally performing supply chains.

The impact of the conflict in the Middle East on agricultural markets
Sera disponible le 3 Juin 2026 à 09:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 20
The Middle East plays a limited direct role in agricultural production and trade, but conflict in the region has a significant effect on global agriculture. This is because agriculture is energy intensive and closely linked to energy markets through biofuel production. Using the OECD–FAO Aglink-Cosimo model, this study analyses two transmission channels of an oil price shock to global agricultural prices: fertiliser markets and biofuel demand. Results show delayed and moderate increases in agricultural commodity prices, with the strongest impacts in countries highly dependent on imported fertilisers. Temporary increases in biofuel mandates have limited effects on food prices but may increase risks for vegetable oils.

Les Perspectives de l’acier sont l’analyse annuelle des marchés sidérurgiques mondiaux par l’OCDE. Y sont présentés les chiffres les plus à jour et les perspectives à moyen terme concernant l’évolution du secteur par filière, les principales caractéristiques et les tendances de la consommation apparente, de la production et des échanges à l’échelle mondiale.
L’industrie sidérurgique mondiale est confrontée à des défis persistants qui s’intensifieront vraisemblablement en 2026 et au-delà. Ses excédents de capacité devraient augmenter jusqu’en 2028 sur fond de croissance atone de la demande d’acier. Le taux d’utilisation des capacités pourrait chuter, ce qui amplifierait les pressions sur la rentabilité du secteur.
L’industrie sidérurgique est confrontée à des défis importants liés aux échanges et à l’ajustement. Son subventionnement croissant, surtout en dehors de la zone OCDE, entraîne des distorsions de concurrence. Le recours généralisé aux subventions fausse gravement la concurrence et nuit au fonctionnement du marché dans le secteur.
L’analyse présentée dans ce rapport fait ressortir la nécessité de traiter les causes profondes et les effets des politiques génératrices de distorsions afin d’établir des règles du jeu équitables pour les producteurs d’acier du monde entier.

The business case for engaging with the National Contact Points for Responsible Business Conduct
Sera disponible le 8 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 37
There are fifty-two National Contact Points (NCPs) for Responsible Business Conduct (RBC) with the mandate to act as state-based non-judicial grievance mechanisms under the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. Since 2000, NCPs have handled more than 700 cases (specific instances) relating to company operations in over 110 countries, covering issues such as human rights, employment and the environment. Despite a good track record of resolving disputes when both parties engage in the process in good faith, many companies choose not to engage with the NCP process. This paper outlines potential benefits for business to engage with NCP specific instances, drawing on past cases and research. It outlines how the unique characteristics of the NCP mechanism facilitate the resolution of complex issues, potentially helping companies avoid costs associated with RBC disputes. It also explores various incentives to engage, such as reputational risks or eligibility for government support, and highlights how the process can strengthen stakeholder relationships. Finally, it explores how participation can strengthen a company’s due diligence process and thereby support them in responding to increasing RBC expectations from regulators, business partners and investors.

How to Make Inter‑Municipal Co‑operation Work
Sera disponible le 8 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 160
Inter-municipal co-operation is becoming essential for local governments of all sizes as they face demographic change, rising service demands, and growing pressure to do more and better with limited resources. This publication shows how working together enables municipalities to maintain quality public services and infrastructure and strengthen long-term territorial development, without giving up local identity or autonomy.
Drawing on international practices from OECD and accession countries, it explains what makes co-operation succeed: a legal framework that provides clarity, consistency and flexibility; an institutional framework that aligns functions, territorial scales and co-operation forms with the nature of services; a solid fiscal framework that enables co-operation to emerge, function effectively and endure over time. These three pillars should be supported by enabling conditions, such as trust, governance transparency, data and monitoring.
The report includes brief snapshots of inter-municipal co-operation frameworks across 44 OECD and accession countries that offer useful points of comparison and help readers understand the diversity of co-operation arrangements.
This report is designed for national and local policymakers and practitioners. It offers practical insights to collaborate more effectively, whether in rural areas seeking to maintain essential services or growing cities co-ordinating across functional areas.

SME Policy Index for Western Balkans and Türkiye 2026 – Economy Profile for Kosovo
Sera disponible le 9 Juin 2026 à 09:30 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 268
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) underpin the economies of the Western Balkans and Türkiye, accounting for the majority of employment and value added. Their competitiveness and resilience are therefore central to sustainable growth and economic convergence with the European Union.
Yet SMEs operate in an increasingly demanding environment shaped by global uncertainty, the digital and green transitions, and demographic change. While these shifts create opportunities, they also expose persistent weaknesses—including fragmented policy frameworks, limited greening, uneven digital adoption and skills gaps—that constrain firm-level resilience and adaptability. Addressing these challenges requires policies that not only support growth, but strengthen enterprises’ capacity to anticipate shocks, adapt to changing market conditions and sustain performance over time.
The seventh edition of the SME Policy Index for the Western Balkans and Türkiye provides a comprehensive assessment of SME policy progress since 2022, based on the OECD’s established methodology and aligned with OECD and EU good practices. It identifies achievements, remaining gaps and actionable recommendations to strengthen policy effectiveness.
This economy profile assesses performance across 13 policy dimensions and examine progress through four thematic policy clusters. A companion regional profile synthesises shared trends, common challenges and cross-cutting priorities across the seven participating economies.

Anticipating and monitoring water risks for agriculture
Sera disponible le 10 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 80
This paper examines water risks for agriculture and outlines a typology of tools to support public authorities in anticipating, monitoring and assessing these risks. Agriculture faces multiple water risks including shortage, excess and poor water quality, alongside systemic risks from degraded freshwater systems and a destabilised water cycle. Monitoring and anticipating these risks is critical to sustaining agricultural production and protecting freshwater resources. Given the diverse water risks and decision contexts, the sector requires a suite of tools tailored to different risks and temporal and spatial scales. The relevance of specific tools depends on decisions being taken, with the highest value achieved when tools inform choices with high or irreversible costs. While technological progress is driving rapid tool development, gaps and challenges remain. Public authorities have a central role in promoting a robust data environment, while taking a long-term, holistic perspective to build systemic resilience.

Langue: anglais
Pages: 165
This report presents the second OECD overview of countries’ progress in governing critical risks over the period 2017–2023, based on the 2014 OECD Recommendation on the Governance of Critical Risks. Drawing on a cross-country survey of 34 countries, it examines how governments have strengthened their capacity to anticipate, prepare for, respond to, and learn from major shocks with national consequences.
The report shows that most countries have continued to make progress in implementing the Recommendation and have used it to shape new policy initiatives, revise national strategies, and adapt institutional arrangements. However, progress remains uneven across countries and across different aspects of risk governance. The COVID-19 pandemic, alongside other large-scale crises, severely tested national systems and highlighted persistent gaps in managing complex, fast-moving, and cross-border risks. Leading practices are found in countries where the rapidly evolving security context is reflected in country risk profiles and a whole-of-society approach to risk management incorporates actions to preserve social cohesion.

Access to climate and biodiversity finance is shaped by the wider development finance landscape, along with structural constraints and fragmentation. Although essential for developing countries, especially the most vulnerable, this finance remains embedded in broader development finance flows rather than operating as a distinct system. Funding has increased over the past decade, led mainly by bilateral donors and multilateral development banks. Vertical climate and environmental funds play an important catalytic role, but they still account for a small share of total flows and are often harder to access for countries with limited capacity. Fragmentation across funding sources further raises transaction costs and strains institutional capacity. Econometric evidence shows that allocation patterns continue to reflect traditional development finance drivers, with absorptive capacity often outweighing vulnerability. As a result, countries most in need may still face persistent barriers to access, underscoring the need for more coherent, co-ordinated and context-sensitive approaches.
The report combines descriptive statistics, econometric analysis and six country case studies (Armenia, Gabon, Madagascar, Senegal, Saint Lucia and Togo) to assess access to international environmental finance, identify current bottlenecks and highlight good practices that could be scaled up.

Digital Government Outlook
From Foundations to Transformational Impact
Sera disponible le 15 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 150
Governments today face a growing disconnect between rising expectations for speed, adaptability and responsiveness, and institutional systems that have not kept pace. Digital technologies and data are no longer optional enablers; they have become core infrastructure for addressing today's policy and service delivery challenges. The 2025 OECD Digital Government Index (DGI) and Open, Useful and Re-usable Data (OURdata) Index confirm that governments have made meaningful progress, particularly in establishing strategies, frameworks and enabling conditions. The challenge now is to move beyond these foundations to deliver transformational impact for people and businesses: strengthening data governance for greater coherence and reuse, increasing uptake of digital public infrastructure, modernising investment and procurement approaches, building robust trust frameworks for AI, and designing more proactive, human-centred services.
The OECD Digital Government Outlook provides a comprehensive, forward-looking assessment of these dynamics across 36 OECD Members and 8 accession candidate countries. Drawing on the results of the 2025 DGI and OURdata, it evaluates both progress and persistent gaps across key areas of digital transformation, identifying what governments need to do to move from digital ambition to public sector performance in an environment of rapid technological change, fiscal constraints and limited public trust.

Incubation in Entrepreneurial Ecosystems
Hatching Growth
Sera disponible le 15 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 170
Business incubators are vital players within entrepreneurial ecosystems. They specialise in identifying the most promising start-up and scale-up companies and aiding their development through holistic support packages and making connections to the wider ecosystem. Substantial public and private investments have driven major growth in the incubator population in recent decades, accompanied by other trends including increased specialisation, more virtual delivery models, and more internationalisation support.
Government support has been key to this growth in incubation and policy retains an important role. However, policymakers face questions surrounding which incubation activities to promote, which organisations to fund, whether and where to specialise, and how to incentivise good practices in support delivery. This publication is a guide for policymakers for navigating these decisions.
Part 1 sets out what incubation involves, the rationale for public involvement, and major trends. Part 2 examines the main types of incubation services provided, with chapters on coaching, internationalisation, financing, training, and specialised incubation. Part 3 discusses policy choices in developing public supports for incubators, with recommendations and inspiring practices. Finally, Part 4 presents eight country profiles (Estonia, France, Ireland, Korea, Portugal, Singapore, Sweden, and the United Kingdom) with information and lessons from each country’s incubation systems and policies.

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 90
An increasing number of OECD countries are seeking to exploit the potential of micro-credentials as a way to increase uptake of upskilling and reskilling in the face of rapid technological change and demographic aging. Micro-credentials record the learning outcomes that learners acquire on completion of learning activities that are smaller, more targeted, and more flexible than traditional formal education and training programmes and can theoretically be issued by a wide range of education and training providers. This report sets out a proposed strategy for the further implementation of micro-credentials across education and training sectors in Czechia. Developed as part of a project financed by the European Union’s Technical Support Instrument (TSI), the recommendations presented draw on an assessment of the Czech context, in-depth analysis of international policies and practice in other OECD countries and a wide-ranging consultation with stakeholders across Czech regions.

Giving Informal Learning the Recognition it Deserves
Sera disponible le 18 Juin 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 145
Informal learning is a central yet often overlooked pillar of lifelong learning. While policy has traditionally prioritised formal and non-formal education and training, a substantial share of skills is developed through everyday life – at work, through social interaction, and via self-directed learning. This sort of learning is flexible, continuous, and well suited to rapidly evolving skill demands of an era shaped by digitalisation and artificial intelligence. It also opens accessible pathways for those less likely to engage in structured learning.
Yet despite its growing importance, informal learning remains insufficiently defined, measured, and embedded in policy frameworks. This report addresses this gap through comparative analysis supported by Belgium (Flanders), Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. Drawing on international evidence, it examines the benefits, participation patterns, and key drivers of informal learning, and proposes a shared definition alongside a more coherent measurement framework – advancing visibility, comparability, and policy relevance. The report concludes with ten actionable recommendations to strengthen the evidence base and support the systematic integration of informal learning into lifelong learning and skills policies.

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 160
Intermediary cities play a pivotal “bridging” role in regional development, complementing nearby large urban centres while supporting smaller cities, towns, and rural areas. Although intermediary cities account for a substantial share of cities and host a significant portion of the urban population across the OECD, they have received limited policy attention, which has tended to focus on metropolitan areas. This gap leaves the full potential of intermediary cities underexploited and calls for stronger, evidence-based policy guidance. This report synthesises the main findings of the OECD EU project “Unlocking the Potential of Intermediary Cities for Regional Development in the European Union.” It aims to deepen understanding of the role of intermediary cities and to support policymakers in advancing more balanced, sustainable, and inclusive territorial development. The report introduces a harmonised definition, new indicators, and an experimental typology of intermediary cities. It also identifies key policy priorities to help governments unlock their potential across diverse contexts, drawing on six in-depth, place-based case studies. Finally, it presents a pilot policy toolkit that translates these insights into practical, step-by-step guidance for action.

Labour markets across OECD countries are undergoing rapid transformation, widening the gap between the skills employers need and those that formal education systems alone can provide. This report examines why skills-first approaches to hiring, talent management and skills development are becoming essential for improving labour market functioning and productivity, and what systemic changes are needed to adopt them at scale. It explores the development of common skills languages, the integration of modular learning pathways and micro-credentials into education and training systems, the adoption of skills-first human resource practices within firms, and the role of career guidance, skills passports and recognition of prior learning in linking learning to jobs. Drawing on data from the Skills-First Readiness and Adoption Index, as well as emerging policy practices across the OECD, the report identifies the conditions under which skills-first systems can reduce information asymmetries, widen access to employment opportunities, and support economic dynamism, resilience and social mobility during a period of sustained change.

Public procurement represents a large share of economic activity in OECD countries (13% of GDP on average) and is increasingly used to pursue priority goals, including industrial policy goals. As governments reassess trade openness, resilience and security of supply, procurement policy has become a focal point where industrial policy and international trade intersect, with implications that extend beyond national borders.
This report explores the interaction among public procurement, industrial policies and trade. It discusses direct and indirect measures that strengthen national economies and impact trade and public procurement. The report also explores trade measures related to public procurement and how they interact with industrial policies and affect the resilience of global value chains. In particular, it looks at international trade agreements for strengthening cross-border public procurement, efforts to ensure reciprocity of access – and the challenges involved – and the relevance of international trade and global value chains for public procurement.

Cities worldwide are navigating common challenges, from housing affordability pressures to climate risks, strained transport systems, and persistent social inequalities, often within tight fiscal and administrative constraints. Subnational governments drive a substantial share of public investment and service delivery, making effective local action critical. In this context, cities are turning to ideas developed elsewhere to accelerate implementation, reduce uncertainty and improve outcomes. Yet, these practices often remain fragmented and informal rather than structured and deliberate. As part of the OECD’s work on inclusive growth in cities, this toolkit explores how cities learn from each other and offers practical guidance to support more strategic idea adoption among cities. Drawing on evidence from a survey of 76 cities across 43 countries, 16 in-depth case studies and a series of expert and practitioner workshops, the toolkit recognises the diversity of institutional structures, political priorities and resource endowments shaping local policymaking and proposes a set of 14 concrete actions to guide cities through the idea adoption process.

Pages: 142
With recovery requirements estimated at USD 588 billion over 2026-2035, how can Ukraine translate strategic priorities into deliverable infrastructure projects, ensure integrity and value for money, and mobilise public and private resources across the full asset lifecycle? The Government of Ukraine partnered with the OECD to review its infrastructure governance and financing frameworks amid unprecedented recovery and reconstruction needs following Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.
Ukraine has established relevant upstream measures supporting a more rules based, fiscally anchored and digitalised system. However, the reform frontier has shifted downstream. Stronger project preparation, procurement strategies, permitting co ordination and lifecycle management are critical to converting improved planning into timely delivery, resilient assets and sustained value for money.
Efforts to maintain macroeconomic stability in unprecedented conditions are also contributing to strengthen Ukraine’s capacity to mobilise private capital. Yet, wartime risk, macro fiscal constraints, weak financial intermediation and integrity challenges continue to limit private participation. Addressing these constraints requires a sequenced reform agenda that strengthens enabling conditions, deepens public-private partnership implementation capacity, develops domestic financial markets, and integrates climate resilience and EU aligned sustainability standards across infrastructure delivery.

Latvia's regions and municipalities face persistent disparities in economic performance, connectivity, and access to services - yet many possess significant untapped assets in natural capital, cultural amenities, and entrepreneurship. This report supports Latvia in translating those assets into more balanced and sustainable territorial development, by providing two interconnected contributions. First, it introduces the OECD Regional Attractiveness framework, applied at the municipal level for the first time in any OECD country, as a practical tool for subnational governments to diagnose territorial strengths and constraints, identify opportunities for co-operation, and monitor progress against regional development objectives. Five concrete use cases demonstrate how multidimensional, internationally comparable indicators can strengthen evidence-based policymaking across the full regional development cycle - from strategy design and investment programming to monitoring and evaluation. Second, it examines Latvia's multi-level governance framework, identifying the co-ordination, financing, and capacity gaps that currently limit the ability of planning regions and municipalities to fulfil their mandates. Together, the two analyses point toward a more integrated approach to regional development - one in which stronger governance frameworks, better-resourced subnational institutions, and systematic use of multidimensional territorial data reinforce each other in support of more attractive, competitive, and resilient Latvian regions.

Shortages of medical products have become more frequent and more protracted over the past decade, driven by structural supply chain vulnerabilities, increasing global interdependencies and the concentration of manufacturing of key inputs. At the same time, governments need to prepare for potential future emergencies. Yet policymakers lack timely and comprehensive information on where critical medical inputs are produced, how supply networks are organised across borders, or where bottlenecks may emerge.
This report strengthens the evidence base on supply chain vulnerabilities for selected medical products relevant to public health emergencies. It maps the supply chains of three critical products (injectable systemic corticosteroids, seasonal influenza vaccines and influenza RT-PCR diagnostic tests), examining market structures, demand patterns, and upstream and downstream production. The analysis highlights data limitations, market structure, and dependency issues that affect the resilience of medical supply chains for critical medical products.
The report also explores how international co-operation initiatives and improved supply chain monitoring could support more secure supply of medical products, with a particular focus on the European Union.

One in three adults across OECD economies lack the foundational skills to participate effectively in the labour market and society. This share has grown over the past decade, making low foundational skills one of the most persistent structural challenges facing advanced economies. Drawing on the 2023 Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC), this report examines the scale, nature and consequences of low foundational skills in OECD countries and beyond. It analyses how the depth of skill deficits varies across countries and domains; it pinpoints the strongest predictors of low skills and uncovers distinct profiles among low-skilled populations; it highlights how these findings can inform effective policy responses. The report underscores that adults with low foundational skills are not a homogeneous group: deficits differ in severity, are distributed differently across literacy and numeracy, and reflect varying roles of migration and language background. Adults with low foundational skills face substantial and compounding disadvantages in employment, earnings, health and civic participation. Yet those who would benefit most from adult learning are consistently the least likely to engage in upskilling activities. Closing this gap requires active outreach through trusted intermediaries, provision that is contextualised and sufficiently intensive, and a sustained commitment to reaching adults whom adult learning systems have repeatedly failed to serve.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) underpin the economies of the Western Balkans and Türkiye, accounting for the majority of employment and value added. Their competitiveness and resilience are therefore central to sustainable growth and economic convergence with the European Union.
Yet SMEs operate in an increasingly demanding environment shaped by global uncertainty, the digital and green transitions, and demographic change. While these shifts create opportunities, they also expose persistent weaknesses—including fragmented policy frameworks, limited greening, uneven digital adoption and skills gaps—that constrain firm-level resilience and adaptability. Addressing these challenges requires policies that not only support growth, but strengthen enterprises’ capacity to anticipate shocks, adapt to changing market conditions and sustain performance over time.
The seventh edition of the SME Policy Index for the Western Balkans and Türkiye provides a comprehensive assessment of SME policy progress since 2022, based on the OECD’s established methodology and aligned with OECD and EU good practices. It identifies achievements, remaining gaps and actionable recommendations to strengthen policy effectiveness.
This economy profile assesses performance across 13 policy dimensions and examine progress through four thematic policy clusters. A companion regional profile synthesises shared trends, common challenges and cross-cutting priorities across the seven participating economies.

Promoting the Development of the Semiconductor Ecosystem in Panama
Sera disponible le 6 Juillet 2026 à 08:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 140
Panama is an open and services-oriented economy and a cornerstone of international trade, reflecting its privileged geographic position, excellence in transportation logistics and strong air and seaborne transportation infrastructure. As Panama seeks to position itself within the global semiconductor value chain, its regulatory framework provides important incentives for prospective foreign investors and it has been actively investing in initiatives to promote semiconductor-related talent, research and innovation. Continued investment in talent, reliable utilities infrastructure and the development of a local ecosystem of semiconductor suppliers and customers could help Panama capitalise on emerging opportunities to develop its ecosystem for semiconductors. This report examines opportunities and challenges for Panama’s ecosystem for semiconductors and provides recommendations to foster its development. Using both quantitative and qualitative analysis, as well as insights from a diverse group of stakeholders, the report offers policy recommendations across four key themes: co-ordinating and aligning incentives through the recently established Commission for Innovation in Microelectronics and Semiconductors, investing in skills and attracting talent to develop a semiconductor workforce, developing an ecosystem of local suppliers and customers for semiconductor firms, and ensuring reliable and sustainable utilities infrastructure.

Job Creation and Local Economic Development 2026
Global Trade, Local Jobs
Sera disponible le 15 Juillet 2026 à 09:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 200
Global trade and value chains are undergoing profound transformations, reshaping where jobs are created and lost across regions and local labour markets in OECD countries. Rising geopolitical uncertainty, supply chain disruptions, and technological change are reconfiguring trade patterns, amplifying opportunities and vulnerabilities for places with different economic structures. Drawing on newly collected, granular regional and firm‑level data, this report analyses how trade integration, shifts from goods to services trade, and firm‑level restructuring and investment translate into uneven employment, productivity, and resilience outcomes across regions. The report introduces new indicators of regional trade integration, exposure to foreign value added, and job creation and destruction linked to firm adjustments, alongside survey evidence on how local governments are responding. While trade‑integrated regions tend to benefit from stronger employment growth and innovation, gains remain uneven and increasingly intertwined with new risks related to supply‑chain dependence and sectoral specialisation. At the same time, job creation and loss are becoming more geographically concentrated, reinforcing spatial divides but also opening new opportunities in strategic sectors, such as batteries and semiconductors. The report calls for place‑based responses that connect trade, industrial, skills and employment policies to support better local jobs, smoother worker transitions, and more resilient regional economies.

Economic Connectivity and Development along the Lobito Corridor
A Policy Framework
Sera disponible le 24 Juillet 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 100
The Lobito Corridor links Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia to global markets through the Atlantic port of Lobito. Built on modernised rail infrastructure, it aims to improve trade efficiency, diversify export routes and strengthen regional integration. Taking advantage of the increasing demand for critical minerals, the corridor could reinforce the region’s role in global supply chains while supporting broader trade, investment and economic diversification.
This report assesses how increased mining and transport activity along the corridor can translate into durable economic growth. It analyses how rail and logistics integration may shape freight demand and corridor performance to 2050, and identifies risks which may alter the overall contribution of the corridor to local economies (spanning base erosion and profit shifting in mineral supply chains, adverse impacts derived from the construction and operation of the corridor, and risks in the mineral supply chains).
Bringing together tax, transport and responsible business conduct perspectives, the report identifies the conditions needed to secure fair revenues, strengthen supply chain resilience and convert infrastructure investment into long term, inclusive growth"

Accelerating Infrastructure Permitting
From Streamlining to Structured Bargaining
Sera disponible le 31 Juillet 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 102
Infrastructure is essential for economic growth, the climate transition and resilience. Yet, in many countries, infrastructure projects take years to move from planning to construction, with permitting processes often contributing to delays, higher costs and uncertainty. These challenges are becoming more pressing as governments seek to rapidly expand energy, transport and other strategic infrastructure.
This report examines how permitting systems affect the delivery of infrastructure projects and explores how governments can accelerate decision making while maintaining environmental and social safeguards. It looks at how countries are attempting to streamline permitting procedures and identifies emerging approaches to better manage competing interests and trade-offs during the project development process.
The report aims to support policymakers and practitioners working to deliver infrastructure more efficiently and predictably while maintaining trust and accountability in public decision making.

Net‑Zero Commitments and Prudential Risks in the Dutch Financial Sector
Sera disponible le 2 Septembre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 77
Net-zero commitments by financial institutions may create legal and reputational risks when stated targets are not matched by credible progress. This report presents a monitoring framework for assessing risks related to financial institutions’ net-zero commitments. The framework includes quantitative and qualitative assessments focused on governance and risk-management practices. It analyses public disclosures by Dutch and other European financial institutions, considers supervisory data available to De Nederlandsche Bank, and identifies comparability and data-quality challenges that may hinder risk assessment.
The report explores how sector-level physical emissions-intensity metrics can provide a suitable basis for assessing alignment with net-zero commitments, and thereby legal and reputational risks. It also identifies opportunities to improve reporting in a cost-effective manner and deprioritise disclosures that may be costly but have limited relevance for assessing potentially material risks.
