The 2020 edition of the APO Productivity Databook aims to assist policymakers in member countries in navigating the current volatile climate while achieving sustainable growth. Recent productivity and economic performance data are analyzed, including damage inflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic on Asia-Pacific economies in the first and second quarters of the year. For the third year, the publication updates forecasts of economic growth and labor productivity in the region through 2030. Productivity indicators provided in national and regional profiles are expanded for more comprehensive comparisons with reference economies, and a growth accounting framework for new APO member Turkey is included. |
