The document is an OECD economic survey of Latvia that discusses key economic challenges and recommendations. It finds that while Latvia has recovered from the financial crisis, growth has slowed and income inequality remains high. It recommends that Latvia reduce income inequality by targeting social benefits better, lower taxes on low-paid jobs, and strengthen tax collection. It also suggests raising productivity by improving regulation, vocational education, and R&D investment to support robust economic convergence. Further, Latvia should limit economic volatility by building fiscal reserves to cope with external shocks and continuing financial sector oversight.
This chartbook compares key economic and social statistics of Spain to OECD averages. It finds that while Spain's GDP per capita and spending on health, education, and R&D are below OECD averages, its life expectancy and percentage of women in parliament are higher. Unemployment rates, especially among youth, are much higher in Spain than the OECD average.

The document compares various economic and social statistics of the United Kingdom to OECD averages. It finds that the UK has an GDP per capita slightly below average, an older population with fewer youth, and higher life expectancy. The UK spends more on education as a percentage of GDP but less on R&D, pensions, and debt is lower than OECD averages. Unemployment is close to average while youth unemployment is higher, and the UK has higher income inequality.
This document provides an overview and summary of the 2015 OECD Economic Survey of Ireland. It finds that while Ireland has recovered strongly from the crisis through reforms and growth, challenges remain around reducing high household debt levels, lowering the high rate of non-performing loans, and making growth more inclusive through measures such as improving access to affordable childcare and reducing disincentives for low-income families to work. The survey also recommends that Ireland can boost productivity growth further through intensifying competition in certain sectors, expanding support for research and development, and ensuring skills training programs are demand-driven.

Presentation to Institute of Directors on Q2 economic datas.coffey
This document analyzes Ireland's recent economic growth and whether it represents a true recovery or statistical anomaly. It provides statistics showing that Ireland's GDP and GNP have grown significantly in recent years, with GDP growth reaching 7.7% in 2014, the fastest pace since 2007. This growth has been driven by a rebound in domestic demand and a strong increase in exports. Economists and media outlets have reacted positively but some question if the strength of the recovery can be sustained.

Sweden's output has been lifted by an expanding labour force, investment and a recent pick-up in productivity.Unemployment is receding, although it remains relatively high for vulnerable groups, notably the foreign-born.
Belgium withstood the global financial crisis relatively well and has high levels of well-being. However, the country faces challenges including ensuring the sustainability of its public debt, improving competitiveness amid fast wage growth, and boosting low employment rates for immigrants. The OECD report recommends reforms such as raising the retirement age, modifying the wage setting process, reducing labor taxes and increasing other taxes, improving integration policies, and addressing issues in the education and housing systems.
The document summarizes key findings from the OECD Economic Survey of Mexico 2017. It finds that economic reforms in Mexico have led to increased productivity growth, rising foreign investment, and a more resilient economy. However, it notes that implementation of reforms remains uneven, and additional reforms are needed in areas like reducing informality, improving gender equality, fighting corruption, and transforming the agricultural sector. The document provides recommendations in these areas to further boost Mexico's economic growth.

This document summarizes an OECD report on the French economy. It finds that while well-being is high in France, per capita growth has been weak for some time and unemployment remains high, especially among youth. It recommends that France speed up structural reforms to improve growth prospects, lower public spending substantially in the medium term to reduce taxes, reform the inflexible labor market, and strengthen vocational education. Fully implementing ambitious structural reforms across these areas could boost France's GDP by up to 4% by 2025.
This document summarizes key findings from the 2016 OECD Economic Survey of Finland. It finds that reviving productivity and increasing employment are essential for Finland's economy given weak growth, rising debt, and the highest government spending in the OECD. Productivity growth has stalled across industries, though this is a common trend. Unemployment is higher in Finland than other Nordic countries. The document recommends reforms to streamline product market regulations, shift taxes, and boost cooperation between businesses and universities to increase innovation and productivity. It also suggests stepping up activation policies for unemployment benefits and reducing incentives for early retirement to raise employment.

Upward Social Convergence in the EU: definition and measurement - Massimilia...Massimiliano Mascherini
This presentation was given at the seminar co-organized by Eurofound and the Italian Permanent Representation to the European Union on 6/11/2019
It is based on the report
“Upward Convergence in the EU:
Concepts measurements and Indicators”
Which is available here:
https://goo.gl/ttS8wY
background document of the seminar:
The European Union was defined by the World Bank as the “modern world’s greatest convergence Machine” for its capacity of propelling least performing Member States towards best performing countries in both the economic and social dimension.
The economic crisis halted upward convergence trends especially in employment and living conditions. While since 2013 convergence trends are coming back, the gravity of the crisis heightened the need to address social asymmetries besides the economic ones. The idea that “economic and social convergence should go hand in hand” is now central to the policy debate. The recently proclaimed European Pillar of Social Rights aims at being a compass to upward convergence towards better working and living conditions.
However, what is social convergence? And what is upward convergence? And how do we measure it? While these two concepts are now more and more popular in the European policy debate, scientific literature around them is scarce. According to Scopus, among the 30,000 scientific articles in economy or social science discussing convergence, only 55 discuss social convergence and even fewer upward convergence of which not a real definition exists.
For this reason, the aim of the seminar is to:
• Discuss the definition of upward convergence,
• Measure upward convergence, differences and caveats of the various measurements,
• Assess where Europe is in terms of upward convergence and the latest trends the social dimension of the European Union,
• See how Italy behaved in terms of upward convergence in comparison to other countries.
As one hint of what Eurofound will present on 6 November, our first results show that over the period 2008-2016, while the employment and activity rate as well as social exclusion index and AROPE reveal an upward convergence trends, some other indicators exhibit a pattern of either downward convergence (material deprivation and in-work poverty as well as long-term unemployment rate and average weekly hours worked) or downward divergence (Inequality, NEET rate, unemployment rate, involuntary temporary work and part time) with greater differences at the regional level.
This document summarizes a study on the effects of growth-enhancing policies on microeconomic stability. The study finds that policies promoting growth, such as reducing employment protection and product market regulation, can increase microeconomic instability for firms, workers, and households. However, deeper reforms may boost growth without raising instability. The analysis also shows that tax-benefit systems play a key role in attenuating the impact of individual income volatility on overall household income changes. While some pro-growth reforms have trade-offs with stability and inequality, well-designed policies, like expanding active labor market programs, can promote both growth and stability.

This document summarizes a seminar discussing the effects of growth-enhancing policies on microeconomic stability. It finds that while some pro-growth reforms can increase instability at the individual level, deeper reforms may boost growth without increasing volatility. Reforms like reducing employment protections and unemployment benefits can increase worker reallocation and earnings volatility, while well-designed social programs and competitive markets can attenuate these impacts. Policy settings are linked to a country's distance from the growth-volatility frontier, showing the importance of balancing economic goals.

Should financial markets lose confidence in the sustainability of public debt on account of the political uncertainty resulting from the outcome of the election, given the size of the Italian economy a return of the euro crisis cannot be ruled out. Furthermore, risks to financial stability continue to persist in certain member states due to the fragility of many banks, particularly with regard to the extent of non-performing loans.”

Klöckner & Co - Roadshow Presentation November 2011Klöckner & Co SE
The document provides an overview of Klöckner & Co SE's performance in Q3 2011. Key points include sales increasing 34.6% to €1.885 billion while EBITDA declined 39.7% to €37 million due to contracting gross margins. The Americas segment saw sales and EBITDA growth of over 30% and 145.8% respectively, while Europe declined in volumes and EBITDA. Klöckner launched a profitability action plan to contribute 1% to EBITDA margins. The balance sheet remains strong with a gearing ratio of 35% and equity ratio of 37%.
The document summarizes key findings from the 2016 OECD Economic Survey of the Czech Republic. It finds that while the Czech economy is growing again and unemployment has returned to pre-crisis levels, business R&D spending and productivity growth have stalled. It also notes that the public administration could be more effective, procurement processes are not competitive enough, and infrastructure investment is low. The report recommends steps to boost innovation, improve bankruptcy proceedings, increase access to finance for startups, use performance indicators, enhance joint procurement, and coordinate public investments.

Klöckner & Co - Roadshow Presentation August 2012Klöckner & Co SE
Klöckner & Co SE is a leading multi-metal distributor that saw turnover increase 5.7% year-over-year in Q2 2012 driven by acquisitions and organic growth in the US. However, the worsening market environment in Europe makes achieving last year's EBITDA unlikely. The company has significantly expanded the scope of its restructuring measures, closing 11 sites in Spain and about 10 sites in France. Net income was negatively impacted by €17 million in restructuring costs and €30 million in impairments.
The key objectives of UK macroeconomic policy are price stability, economic growth, low unemployment, and higher living standards. Additional objectives include balancing the budget, improving well-being, regional balance, and access to services. Recent UK economic data shows GDP growth of 2.6% in 2014, inflation at 0.1%, unemployment at 5.4%, and a budget deficit of 5.3% of GDP. The UK runs trade deficits and has a floating exchange rate system.
The document discusses Klöckner & Co SE's Q2 2012 results, noting that turnover increased 5.7% year-over-year driven by acquisitions and organic growth in the US, while EBITDA was €50 million which met guidance despite restructuring expenses of €17 million and a worsening market environment in Europe. It also provides an update on the company's restructuring measures in response to declining steel demand and overcapacity, including structural changes and site closures in Spain and France.

EU Competitiveness Bench marking Report 2015Yaw Appiah
The document is a benchmarking report from the European Round Table of Industrialists (ERT) that analyzes Europe's competitiveness in areas like economic growth, R&D investment, patent filings, industry production, access to capital, energy prices, and carbon pricing systems. It finds that while Europe has strengths, it faces challenges like slower growth compared to countries like China and India, lower R&D spending compared to competitors, declining shares of global patent filings, higher energy and labor costs, and uneven competitiveness across EU member states. The report calls for European leaders to take steps to ensure Europe remains an attractive business location.

Globally inclusive approaches to measurement_Shigehiro Oishi.pdfStatsCommunications
This document discusses measurement issues in comparing well-being and culture across countries. It covers 5 main issues: 1) Response styles may not fully explain differences in life satisfaction scores between countries. 2) Well-being items do not always function the same way across cultures, though lack of measurement equivalence only partly explains score differences. 3) Self-presentation and 4) judgmental/memory biases may also contribute to differences to a small-moderate degree. 5) The meaning and desirability of happiness differs across cultures, which can further impact scores. The document also advocates developing indigenous well-being measures that are meaningful within each local context.
Globally inclusive approaches to measurement_Erhabor Idemudia.pdfStatsCommunications
This document discusses considerations for developing quality of life measures from an African perspective. It notes that many existing QoL instruments were developed for Western populations and do not account for cultural differences. In Africa, concepts like happiness are more closely tied to collective well-being and social harmony rather than individualism. The document also outlines some key African beliefs, like Ubuntu, which emphasizes interconnectedness. It argues that QoL measures for Africa must assess both objective and subjective domains, and be grounded in cultural values like family, community, and spirituality rather than only Western individualistic norms. Developing culturally appropriate QoL measures is important for capturing well-being in a meaningful way.

Stats NZ has taken several steps to incorporate Māori perspectives when measuring quality of life and well-being in New Zealand. This includes developing the Te Kupenga Māori social survey, incorporating some concepts from Te Kupenga into the General Social Survey, working with partners on using administrative data for Māori, and trialling iwi-led data collections for the Census. Te Kupenga uses frameworks like Whare Tapu Whā and focuses on cultural well-being areas like spirituality, customs, te reo Māori, and social connectedness. It provides statistics on these areas as well as demographics, paid work, health, and other topics from a Māori

The document discusses Italy's inclusion of domain satisfaction indicators in its framework for measuring well-being (BES). It provides background on Italy's system of social surveys and outlines the development of the BES project, which aims to measure equitable and sustainable well-being. The BES framework includes 12 domains of well-being and over 150 indicators, including subjective well-being indicators and indicators measuring satisfaction within other domains like health, work, relationships, safety, environment and more. The document presents examples of domain satisfaction indicators and trends over time in areas like friends relations and landscape satisfaction.
A better understanding of domain satisfaction: Validity and policy use_Anthon...StatsCommunications
Domain satisfaction measures provide valid and useful information about people's lives beyond overall life satisfaction. Research has found that domain satisfaction captures different aspects of well-being than objective indicators alone, and that different life domains contribute differently to individual happiness. While domain satisfaction may be socially constructed and culturally variable, current policy efforts can still benefit from considering subjective experiences of satisfaction across life domains. Future research opportunities include exploring the multidimensional relationships between domain satisfaction and broader concepts of well-being.
A better understanding of domain satisfaction: Validity and policy use_Marian...StatsCommunications
Domains of life are important for understanding life satisfaction and informing better policymaking. The document discusses four key points:
1) It is important to consider multiple domains of life, not just economic factors, to understand people's overall well-being.
2) Domains of life represent different areas that people spend their time and where they make decisions, such as family, health, work, community.
3) Considering domains of life can provide insight into life satisfaction and help create more effective policies in areas like health, education, and social programs.
4) Current government institutions and policies can be better aligned to impact the domains of life that influence overall life satisfaction.
Measuring subjective well-being in children and young people_Sabrina Twilhaar...StatsCommunications
This document summarizes Sabrina Twilhaar's presentation on new frontiers in subjective well-being measurement for children. It discusses Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory and how children's well-being is influenced by multiple levels including micro (family, peers), meso (school), exo (neighborhood), and macro (culture, economy) systems. It then reviews literature on conceptualizing and measuring hedonic and eudaimonic well-being in children, noting gaps like a focus on life satisfaction over affect. Research finds children's well-being varies by age and sex, and is associated with family relationships and bullying. Overall, more work is needed to develop valid cross-cultural measures of multiple
Towards a more comprehensive measure of eudaimonia_Nancy Hey.pdfStatsCommunications
This document summarizes recent research on measuring subjective well-being, with a focus on measuring how worthwhile people feel the things they do in life are. Some key findings include:
- In the UK, on average people rate their sense that the things they do are worthwhile at 7.86 out of 10, while 3.8% rate it between 0-4 out of 10.
- People in their late 60s and early 70s report the highest sense of worthwhile, while people over 85 and those aged 18-24 report the lowest.
- Factors associated with a higher sense of worthwhile include being older than 45/55, female, white, belonging to a religion, home ownership, higher income
Towards a more comprehensive measure of eudaimonia_Carol Graham.pdfStatsCommunications
1) The document discusses measuring hope as a distinct dimension of well-being, in addition to evaluative, hedonic, and eudaimonic measures. Hope is strongly linked to future-oriented behavior and investing in one's future.
2) Research has found unequal distributions of hope can act as a barrier to health and prosperity. People with higher hope are more likely to aspire to and achieve education and avoid risky behaviors. They also earn more, have stronger social connections, and live longer, healthier lives.
3) Areas and communities with high despair show vulnerabilities like increased deaths of despair, misinformation, and radicalization. Restoring hope is important for mental health recovery and addressing societal threats
Towards a more comprehensive measure of eudaimonia_Carol Ryff.pdfStatsCommunications
This document summarizes Carol Ryff's presentation on bringing measures of eudaimonia or human flourishing to OECD measures of subjective well-being. Ryff discusses defining eudaimonia based on Aristotle and modern views, developing scales to measure six dimensions of eudaimonia, and scientific findings linking higher eudaimonia to better health outcomes. Ryff also notes growing inequality in measures of well-being and calls for credible measurement of select eudaimonic factors like purpose in life and personal growth to be included in large-scale studies like those by OECD to better inform public policy. There is potential for synergies between longitudinal cohort studies providing evidence and OECD's focus on policy issues.
Revisiting affect: Which states to measure, and how_Lucia Macchia.pdfStatsCommunications
This document discusses the relationship between physical pain and subjective well-being. It notes that physical pain can negatively impact subjective well-being through physical, socioeconomic, psychosocial, and behavioral factors. The document reviews several studies that have examined the links between pain and subjective well-being. It also presents data from the Gallup World Poll that shows trends in physical pain between 2009-2021 across 146 countries, and correlations between indicators of subjective well-being and physical pain. The document argues that governments should consider measuring physical pain when assessing societal well-being.

1) The document discusses the use of experienced wellbeing measures in cost-wellbeing analysis and recent developments in this area. It notes key challenges in obtaining meaningful income coefficients for experienced wellbeing measures compared to life satisfaction measures.
2) Regression results are presented analyzing the relationship between life satisfaction, experienced wellbeing measures like happiness, and factors like income, location, and life events. Income is found to have a smaller effect on experienced wellbeing than life satisfaction.
3) An application of using experienced wellbeing data to value urban green space is described, with results suggesting experienced wellbeing may provide different valuations than typical hedonic pricing estimates.
Revisiting affect: Which states to measure, and how_Arthur Stone.pdfStatsCommunications
This document summarizes Arthur Stone's presentation on the OECD's recommendations for measuring affective subjective well-being. Stone argues that the OECD's original strategy of measuring positive and negative affect using a yesterday recall period was sound. However, he suggests broadening the definition of affective well-being to include self-reported pain. Stone presents research showing monitoring pain in populations over time can provide insights, such as revealing increased rates of pain in younger generations without college degrees. He concludes by recommending the expansion of affective well-being measures in line with considering a broader definition and the drivers of its components.

ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

INCOMES OVER TIME

Eric Marlier
2. 2
CONTEXT
• For many years, sharp separation between macro-economic
evaluation of economic policy and analysis of impact of
policy on living standards of hhds
• “Beyond GDP” agenda rightly calls for a more integrated
approach National income (NA) has to be reconnected
with hhd incomes and with the distrib. of these incomes
• From the side of hhd statistics, increasing recognition that
existing income poverty/ distribution indicators need to be
complemented by measures of “real” incomes Important
step forward (2014): EU social indicators’ portfolio now
includes an aggregate indicator of (unadjusted) real gross
hhd disposable income [“unadjusted”=STIK excluded]
3. 3
NEED FOR RECONCILIATION UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCES
• Our focus is on social indicators which are centrally concerned
with distributional issues
• Measures of the evolution of real incomes can be derived
from both NA and surveys Raises important method. issues
• National accounts are based on aggregate information;
• whereas social indicators are largely derived from hhd surveys (EU-SILC) and, in
a growing number of countries, these surveys largely rely on register data.
• Micro and macro evidence have to be reconciled. They may
differ, for ex in the underlying definitions. We can only have
confidence in the 2 sources if we understand the relation (the
differences) between them
4. 4
NEED FOR RECONCILIATION UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCES
• Seven EU-27 MSs combine the hhd sector (S14) with the
“Non-Profit Institutions Serving Households” sector (S15),
which includes bodies such as charities, churches, learned
societies, trade unions, political parties and sports clubs: 6
EU-15 MSs (AT, DK, DE, IE, LU, UK) and Malta
• Thus, only nine EU-15 countries provide statistics for the
S14 sector for unadjusted GHDI (where STIK are excluded
in line with the basis for the recently adopted EU social
indicator)
5. 5
NEED FOR RECONCILIATION UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCES
• Impossibility of separating S14 and S15 problematic for
Unadjusted GHDI. For ex, in France, where there are
separate accounts for S14 and S15: In terms of gross
income before adjustment, NPISH sector around 3% of hhd
sector: €45.5 billion in 2013, compared with €1,326.3
billion… but most of the gross income is used to make STIK
to the hhd sector. Moving from Unad. GHDI to Ad. GHDI
adds to S14 and subtracts from S15, leaving S15 with only
€2.1 billion. For Ad. GHDI, including NPISH would make
little difference, but Un. GHDI would be some 3% higher.
All MSs should provide NA data for the hhd sector S14
excluding S15.

CONCLUSIONS
• As we have seen, trends and/or levels diverge a lot in
some countries between EU-SILC and NA . These
differences are of concern both on account of their
magnitude and because there is no systematic pattern.
This warrants further investigation.
• One obstacle when seeking to understand the differences,
is the problem in matching income by category in the 2
sources – esp. for property income and operating surplus.
Priority for further work developing the earlier
comparisons.
12. 12
CONCLUSIONS
• Need to further confront NA and EU-SILC Pursue recent
important work by the Eurostat and OECD Joint Expert
Group, and the report by Mattonetti (2013) for Eurostat
• A positive note to finish with… The differences between the
2 sources seem to be stable (with certain exceptions). EU-
SILC, in close conjunction with NA, can provide a sound
basis for better monitoring trends over time in poverty and
real incomes… even if further work is required
• An LSE (CASE) Working Paper presents this research in
detail. We would very much welcome your feedback on it as
it is still work in progress. Please kindly send your
feedback to eric.marlier@skynet.be
