The OECD Economic Outlook is the OECD's twice-yearly analysis of the major economic trends and prospects for the next two years. The Outlook puts forward a consistent set of projections for output, employment, prices, fiscal and current account balances.
Coverage is provided for all OECD member countries as well as for selected non-member countries. This issue includes a general assessment, a special chapter on the implications for public policy of the decoupling of wages from productivity and a chapter summarising developments and providing projections for each individual country.
The Statistical Annex is available on-line only at https://dx.doi.org/10.1787/eco_outlook-v22018-2-en

GDP growth has been buoyant in recent quarters and is projected to be about 1½ per cent over the next two years. Domestic demand will gain strength, supported by household consumption. However, the boost to exports from the earlier exchange rate depreciation and one-off events will fade. The large current account surplus will narrow slightly. Inflation will pick up gradually but remain moderate.
