The OECD has just published the Economy Survey of Switzerland. The OECD identified the following main economic challenges faced by the country:
- The global crisis will have a lasting impact on the Swiss economy.
- Monetary and fiscal policies need to adjust in the medium term.
- Macro-risks posed by financial intermediaries require further reforms.
- Low productivity performance in sheltered sectors is denting living standards.
- Scope remains to improve productivity performance through education.
The next economic survey of Switzerland will be prepared for 2011.
The report is available to the IESE Community here.
