Twice a year, the OECD Economic Outlook analyses the major trends and forces that shape short-term economic prospects. It provides in-depth coverage of the economic policy measures required to foster growth and stable prices in each Member country. This is the database used by the OECD's Economics Department in producing the OECD Economic Outlook and it is made available as soon as possible after the release of each Preliminary Edition in May and November of each year.
