Background note for Productivity & Inclusive Growth:
Productivity growth is slowing and inequality is getting worse. Are they influencing each other? The technological and business revolution being driven by digitalisation and other technological changes is not being translated into productivity growth. We can no longer assume that technological advances, and the related innovations in processes and business models, will automatically lead to better economic performance and stronger productivity growth. And there is no guarantee that the benefits of higher levels of growth, or higher levels of productivity in certain sectors, will be shared across the population as a whole.

Background note for Gen Y, Inequality & the Future:
They are called the “Boomerang Generation”, the “Selfie Generation”, the “Me Me Me Generation”, “Generation Maybe” in Germany, the “generation that eats the old” in China, “Generación Ni-Ni” [ni trabaja, ni estudia] in Spain, “the people who are always doing two things at once” in Japan. What do these thirtysomethings have in common? They are confronted with social injustice on an unprecedented scale, massive inequities, and a loss of trust in elites. With over 75 million young people unemployed worldwide, youth unemployment and exclusion are of concern to all. To address the long-standing structural obstacles that are preventing many youth in both OECD countries and emerging economies from making a successful transition from school to work, the OECD has developed a comprehensive Skills Strategy and a Quality Job Framework which support the recent G20 goal of reducing the share of young people who are most at risk of being permanently left behind in the labour market by 15% by 2025 in G20 countries.

Background note for From a pre-digital to a digital economy:
Digitalisation of nearly every facet of the economy and society is increasingly apparent, but by nearly all predictions, it is only just beginning. While this ongoing digitalisation holds many promises to spur innovation, increase productivity and improve services, it also creates new dilemmas for which societies need to prepare. In doing so, it is important to understand some of the underlying features of digitalisation that challenge policies, many of which are legacies of the analogue era.

Background note for Disrupt Ageing:
A critical percentage of the world population is now living longer than ever before, while birth rates are dropping in the majority of OECD countries. This will inevitably lead to a steep increase in the share of elderly individuals in our populations. Ageing also needs to be considered under the light of increasing inequalities and how they compound over the course of people's lives. Less stable careers and less generous pension systems raise the question of what retirement will look like for younger generations. And in emerging economies many older people and workers are still outside of formal pension systems.

Background note for Income, Wealth & Tax:
The world is richer than ever but the benefits of increased wealth are mainly going to a few people and firms. For several years now, the media have been highlighting how multinational corporations with turnovers in the billions pay little or no tax in the countries where they make their profits and whose infrastructures, public services and even government grants they take advantage of.
Recently, the so-called Panama Papers revealed that rich and powerful individuals are hiding their money in offshore accounts. These stories come at a time when the gap between rich and poor is at its highest level for 30 years in most countries. Income inequality is only part of the story. Wealth is much more concentrated than income. The sentiment of injustice this situation arouses is fuelling the rise in populism and blame-based politics. But as well as damaging the social contract, inequality also has economic costs.

Background note for Lunch Debate: Migration:
Immigrant integration is not one story but millions of individual stories. That’s because each immigrant’s integration depends on a host of factors.
Integration issues are particularly important when it comes to refugees, where there are major challenges that cannot be underestimated. A substantial initial investment is needed to allow them to settle and develop their skills. However, in the medium to long-term, refugees who decide to stay will contribute to the labour market and the economy of the country in which they live, in the same way as other immigrants have.

Background note for Lunch Debate: Children, (Digital) Skills & Creativity:
Children are paying a high price for the rising and often large inequality in different dimensions of well-being in OECD countries and emerging economies. Across the OECD one child in seven lives in relative income poverty – and this is one in three for children from migrant families – and child poverty has increased in two–thirds of OECD countries since the Great Recession. Poor children are also more likely to fare badly in a range of child-well-being dimensions compared with other children.

Background note for 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda:
The adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development – and its 17 Goals (SDGs) – is cause for celebration. However, now the real challenge begins: turning words into action.
Implementation will require a holistic and integrated approach. The SDG agenda encompasses a much wide array of inter-related economic, social and environmental issues. Governments – as well as non-governmental stakeholders – will need to adapt to new challenges and overcome intellectual and institutional silos. The SDGs are also a global responsibility and should be embraced by countries at all levels of development. They recognise the complementarity of actions “at home” and “abroad”.

Background note for The Digital Economy & the Future of Work:
The expansion of the digital economy has acted as a driver of economic growth in recent years and is transforming countless aspects of society, from how we sell and how we do business to how we learn. We can’t predict exactly what work will look like or the specific types of jobs that will exist in the future. What is clear, however, is that most sectors will be affected by the digital revolution.

Background note for OECD & G20 – Towards an Innovative, Invigorated, Interconnected and Inclusive World Economy:
By promoting efforts “towards an innovative, invigorated, interconnected and inclusive world economy”, the Chinese G20 Presidency is addressing the key challenges of declining productivity and rising inequality. Under its leadership, the G20 continues its efforts to reignite the traditional engines of growth such as investment and trade. But it is also leading efforts on the new drivers of growth, innovation and the digital economy, and the new industrial revolution. China has also stepped up the G20 structural reform agenda as a key priority, with immediate short-term reforms feeding into the longer-term agenda of rising potential growth.

Background note for Health & Productivity in the Digital Economy:
Strong economies and flourishing societies depend on healthy populations. Still, large health inequalities across and within countries are a cause for concern as health has probably the biggest impact on people’s productivity, income and well-being.
In a context of tight health budgets, ageing populations and growing numbers of people with one or more chronic diseases, new technologies have the potential to build effective and sustainable health systems that meet population needs and deliver value for money. The use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) for health can empower individuals to manage their own health and well-being, with the promise to help deliver patient-centred care models.
All these innovations are bringing together large and diverse amounts of health data which can yield many benefits, including new insights into diseases and their diagnosis, prevention and treatment, and greater opportunity for further development of personalised therapies. But still, technical innovation is not enough.

Background note for Women & the Future of STEM:
Over the years increased public attention on gender equality has led to improvements in employment, earnings and career progression for women. Today, women entering the labour market have higher education levels than their male counterparts in OECD countries. But despite this reversal of the gender gap in access to education, significant barriers persist in education, employment, and entrepreneurship. Girls and young women are still less likely than men to study and work in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).

Background note for Panel with Lunch: Life, Time & Space in the 21st Century:
While some argue that the digital age has the potential to lead to greater well-being by freeing up more time and space for personal fulfilment, others are concerned that the cult of disruption, the constant advance of technology and people’s profound appetite for novelty and convenience are speeding up every aspect of daily life. If “modern life” is built for speed – fast food, ever-faster downloads, speed dating, mini-breaks –, finding a suitable balance between work and daily living is key. The ability to successfully combine work, family commitments and personal life is important for well-being. Governments – and all employers – can help by encouraging supportive and flexible working practices, making it easier to strike a better balance between work and home life.

Background note for Trade and Investment:
In the last several decades, international trade and investment have been key drivers of global growth and economic convergence. But trade can and does have other effects. Innovation and competition bring disruption and churn, and workers and firms can be displaced. Foreign direct investment (FDI) is also a complex issue. Inward and outward FDI have become increasingly controversial, fuelled by suspicions that foreign and domestic firms are seeking lower labour costs abroad.

Background note for Inclusive Cities:
We are living in the urban century, with almost 70% of the world’s population expected to live in cities by 2050, compared to just 30% in 1950. Urbanisation brings many opportunities. Cities can provide an ideal environment for innovation, job creation and culture. However, urbanisation can also challenge the development of more sustainable, inclusive societies. The rise of megacities, urban sprawl and outmoded transport systems leads to increasing levels of pollution that pose a risk for the planet and for public health. Evidence shows that levels of productivity – and inequality – tend to increase with city size. At the same time, informality and unequal access to basic utilities, healthcare, education and digital technologies, particularly in the developing world, can exacerbate social exclusion. As a result, disadvantaged members of the community are often unable to access the very opportunities that make cities attractive.

Background note for The Circular Economy:
The idea behind a Circular Economy underscores the interconnectivity between the environment and economic activity, a way of maintaining resource efficiency and prolonging product life cycle while creating little to zero waste. This approach is becoming critical, as an expected global population of 9 billion by 2050, including 3 billion middle-class consumers, means that future consumption demand will create unprecedented pressure on natural resources. The world’s growing population must learn to do more with less.

Background note for Finreg & FinTech:
As public trust in banks eroded and regulatory pressures increased in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, a wide array of FinTech have blossomed. In the ever growing list of industries to experience disruptions due to the rise of information technologies, the financial sector stands as the next in line. Potential gains in terms of cost efficiency and inclusiveness are substantial.
Yet, FinTech may also give rise to financial discrimination on the basis of personal information, facilitate illegal activities such as money laundering, or destabilise markets in ways no one yet understands. Harnessing the remarkable opportunities opened up by financial technologies, while keeping in check corresponding perils, is undoubtedly a daunting undertaking. As Fintech companies continue to grow at an exponential rate, it is nevertheless a task regulators must attend to.
