Economic Policy Reforms 2013
Going for Growth
Going for Growth is the OECD’s annual report highlighting developments in structural policies in OECD countries. It identifies structural reform priorities to boost real income for each OECD country and key emerging economies (Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia and South Africa). The Going for Growth analysis also regularly takes stock of reform implementation in all the countries covered.
This report provides internationally comparable indicators that enable countries to assess their economic performance and structural policies in a wide range of areas. Each issue also has several thematic studies.

The GDP per capita gap vis-à-vis the upper half of the OECD has narrowed only gradually since around 2000, and income per capita has grown somewhat more rapidly given a sustained improvement in the terms of trade. The contribution of low labour utilisation to the GDP per capita gap, which was already large, increased further in the wake of the global crisis.
