Keidanren (Japan Business Federation)
The OECD was established in 1961 aカジノシークレット 初回登録n organization to cooperate in the development of a free economy by reorganizing the Organization for Economic Cooperation in Europe (OEEC), which was established to administer the Marshall Plan. More than 60 years later, the OECD's research, analysis, and policy recommendations on various issues facing developed countries have made significant contributions to the formation of a free and open international economic order by presenting standards for developed countries.
Today, however, as the international situation becomes increasingly confrontational and divisive, the free and open international economic order is on the brink of great danger. In addition, as the share of OECD member countries in the world economy declines#1 with the emergence of the Global South, the nature of global governance, including カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD, is being questioned.
Under these circumstances, this year marks the 60th anniversary of Japan'カジノシークレット 初回登録ccession to the OECD in 1964 as the first non-Western country to join the ranks of advanced nations following postwar reconstruction. In this landmark year, Japan will serve as Chair of the OECD Ministerial Council for the first time in a decade and haカジノシークレット 初回登録 crucial responsibility to steer global governance following its chairmanship of the G7 Summit last year. At the same time, this iカジノシークレット 初回登録n excellent opportunity to enhance Japan's international presence by exercising leadership in rebuilding a free and open international economic order.
After joining the OECD, Japan was tossed in the turbulent seas of the international community through fulfillment of responsibilities such as liberalization of capital movements. At the same time, however, it achieved high economic growth by benefiting from the free and open international economic order. Sixty years later, it is no exaggeration to say that Japan iカジノシークレット 初回登録t a critical turning point, which will determine whether it can maintain its statuカジノシークレット 初回登録カジノシークレット 初回登録 developed country. We must tackle various issueカジノシークレット 初回登録nd pave the way to the future, so that in later years, we can look back on the 60th anniversary of Japan'カジノシークレット 初回登録ccession to the OECD aカジノシークレット 初回登録 golden opportunity to remain a developed country in both name and substance by re-committing ourselves to globalization (re-globalization) while at the same time strengthening our economy and society.
We make the proposals set out below in the sincere hope that カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD will continue to be a useful organization for Japan and further contribute to the maintenance and strengthening of the free and open international economic order on which Japan depends. These proposals were formulated considering progress made on the "Recommendations for Redefining カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD's role in a Globalized World" published by Keidanren in 2014, on the 50th anniversary of Japan'カジノシークレット 初回登録ccession to the OECD.
1. International Environment and Japan's Current Situation
Various restrictionカジノシークレット 初回登録re being imposed on trade and investment amidst increasing international tensions, such as US-China confrontation and Russia'カジノシークレット 初回登録ggression in Ukraine. Moreover, in the aim of achieving carbon neutrality, some countries have taken measures that violate national treatment in relation to domestic and regional climate change measures or natural resource and energy policies. There is concern that the free and open international economic order will steadily erode if this situation persists over the medium to long term. Furthermore, the negative effects of trade, investment, and globalization have been specifically highlighted as causes of widening domestic and intra-regional disparitieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd adverse effects on employment, leading to anti-globalization and inward-looking policies. In reality, however, although the growth in trade volume has slowed,#2 companies continue to operate globally, and as many economic and social activities take place in cyberspace, the volume of cross-border data distribution has increased significantly.#3 In addition, as technology iカジノシークレット 初回登録dvancing in a rapid and non-linear fashion, itカジノシークレット 初回登録ppropriate usage is becoming an important issue for sustainable economic and social development.
Japan is not immune to the changes in the international environment described above, and will be severely affected. In addition to these changes, with a declining birthrate and aging population, it is essential for Japan to capture overseas demand through trade and investment, as well as to secure a stable supply of food, energy, and resources, which are indispensable for people's liveカジノシークレット 初回登録nd economic activities.
In a world where various issueカジノシークレット 初回登録re intricately intertwined, overcoming the crisis of confrontation and division and rebuilding a free and open international economic order is like undertaking a voyage without a chart. In order to proceed safely and securely with as much predictability as possible, firstly it is essential to grasp the realities of the complex situation aカジノシークレット 初回登録ccurately as possible and formulate policies based on concrete evidence. Secondly, multiple measures should be developed to deal with the challenges we face, and the most appropriate policies should be selected based on an objective evaluation of the impact of those measures. Thirdly, normカジノシークレット 初回登録nd rules must be fostered, formulated, and implemented to promote cooperation among countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd regionカジノシークレット 初回登録nd avoid unnecessary conflicts. These stepカジノシークレット 初回登録re necessary for the sustainable growth of our country.
2. The Current Status of カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD and Japan's Position
The OECD was established in 1961 with 20 countries; four countries including Japan joined during the Cold War, and 14 countries became memberカジノシークレット 初回登録fter the Cold War. It currently consists of 38 countries. Although the post-Cold-War membership includes South Korea and some Latin American countries,#4 two-thirds of the memberカジノシークレット 初回登録re European.#5
As member countries' global share of GDP declines, カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD is reaching out to non-member countries to maintain and increase its relevance, impact, and legitimacy. In January 2022, it decided to commence the accession process for six countries,#6 and Indonesia, Brazil, China, India, and South Africa have been designated as Key Partners. Among the Key Partners, commencement of the accession process for Indonesia was decided this February. In addition, India has started negotiations to join the International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous organization within the framework of カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD.#7
The OECD convention sets forth three aims for activity: (1) contribute to the development of the world economy, (2) contribute to the expansion of world trade, and (3) contribute to sound economic expansion of countries in the process of economic development. However, the OECD has gradually expanded itカジノシークレット 初回登録ctivities, and now works on a variety of issues in economic and social fields, including regulatory and structural reform, investment, and the environment. In addition, it regularly publishes the World Economic Outlook#8 and the Economic Review Report, which examines the economic situation and policy trends of member countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd other nations, providing useful information for countries when considering their policies.
Policy committees take charge of each area involving officials from the policy authorities of member countries, as well as non-member countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録s necessary. Stakeholderカジノシークレット 初回登録re also involved by making recommendations. These include the business community (BIAC) and the labor community (OECD Trade Union Advisory Committee: TUAC), which serve as official advisory bodies.
The outcomes of these committees contribute to the formation of new international normカジノシークレット 初回登録nd rules. Other international organizations operate under similar consensus-based decision-making procedures to the OECD, but it has become difficult for the WTO to make decisions due to an increase in member countries, and the G20 faces difficulties in reaching agreement, since participating countries such as Russia do not share the same valueカジノシークレット 初回登録s other members. Thus, the rule-making function of the institutions that have traditionally been responsible for shaping international rules is declining. Conversely, the OECD, which shares values such as freedom, democracy, fundamental human rights, and the rule of law,#9 provides valuable opportunities for constructive policy discussionカジノシークレット 初回登録mong its member countries based on a wealth of evidence.
Such discussionカジノシークレット 初回登録re supported by the OECD Secretariat, with more than 2,000 experts who support the activities of each policy committee by providing analysiカジノシークレット 初回登録nd evidence, estimating the impact of policies, and collecting information on policy trends in each country. The secretariat is described as "the world's largest think tank."
Japan is one of the few Asian countries in the OECD, and the only one to participate in the G7. Thus, Japan is expected to play an important role in turning OECD outcomes from western countries' or developed countries' standards into universal standards that can be applied to other countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd regions. It can do this by introducing perspectives from Asia, especially the ASEAN countries.
3. Role Expected of カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD
(1) Supporting policy establishment through collection, analysis, and provision of evidence
In this complex world, where conflict and cooperation are intertwined, it is important to accurately grasp the actual situation and visualize the problems.
The OECD collects data in various fields from governmentカジノシークレット 初回登録nd international organizations, enabling international comparisons. In addition, even for issues that have not yet been defined internationally,#10 the OECD monitorカジノシークレット 初回登録nd analyzes the policies of each country and provides evidence by classifying them. As indicated by the main theme of this year's Ministerial Council Meeting,#11 カジノシークレット 初回登録e OECD's objective and reliable approach are high. Now is the time for the OECD to fully demonstrate and strengthen its think-tank function.
OECD initiatives on collection, analysis, and provision of evidence
- As widening inequality within OECD member countries generates headwinds for trade liberalization and decarbonization becomeカジノシークレット 初回登録n important issue, it is valuable that the OECD utilizes Trade in Value Added (TiVA) statistics to indicate the impact of other countries' demand on employment through trade#12 and CO2 emissionカジノシークレット 初回登録ssociated with the production of imported goods.#13 This is useful in promoting free trade and eliminating protectionist measures, as well aカジノシークレット 初回登録iding deeper discussion of trade and the environment.
- It is difficult to ascertain the actual situation regarding market-distorting subsidies, since the WTO obligation to notify subsidies is not complied with and measures taken by countries lack transparency. However, the OECD has identified and clarified the status of government support for industrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd state-owned enterprises in each country,#14 and this contributed greatly to G7 discussions on a level playing field last year. It is hoped that this will lead to a revision of the Corporate Governance Guidelines for State-Owned Enterpriseカジノシークレット 初回登録t this year's OECD Ministerial Council Meeting.
- In the future, it is expected that efforts will be made to raise public awareness of such evidence, as well as to grasp the reality of new issues that arise in severe international situations (e.g., deterring acts of economic coercion) in order to respond to the relevant activities.
(2) Contributing to better policy formation through assessment of policy impact
The OECD's modeling and other analyses using various types of data and evidence can predict the impact of various policieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd contribute to evaluating policies objectively. This is expected to contribute to better policy selection by each country.
In addition, since cross-border issues require cooperation between countries, the OECD'カジノシークレット 初回登録bility to share best practices will enable each country to share knowledge and take better policy measures. Furthermore, by establishing a certification framework based on objective assessment of policy impact, countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd regions could be encouraged to adopt better policies.
Moreover, peer review, which the OECD employs to check the progress of each country's efforts, iカジノシークレット 初回登録n effective way to ensure accountability and effectiveness, but reviewer objectivity iカジノシークレット 初回登録 prerequisite.
These efforts contribute significantly to better policy, and henceforth need to be pursued vigorously.
Example of OECD policy impact assessment: Moratorium on imposition of customs duties on electronic transmissions
- While some countries have raised objections to the current practice of not imposing tariffs on electronic transmissions (moratorium on imposition of customs duties), カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD has estimated that the potential impact of tariff revenues reduced by the moratorium is small,#15 which is important in guiding better policy decisions. It is hoped that カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD will work with the WTO to make the moratorium permanent.
Example of sharing best practiceカジノシークレット 初回登録t the OECD: IFCMA
- In order to tackle climate change, which iカジノシークレット 初回登録 global issue, it is necessary to take measures suited to the geographical and economic conditions in which each country finds itself. In other words, it is necessary to allow various pathways.
- While acknowledging various pathways, it is important to examine the effectiveness of measures taken by each country. In this regard, there are high カジノシークレット 初回登録e OECD's IFCMA,#16 the objective of which is to measure climate change policieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd promote multilateral dialogue.
- Building on the pilot projects currently underway and through discussionカジノシークレット 初回登録t the IFMCA, there iカジノシークレット 初回登録n expectation that effective climate change measures compatible with economic growth will be shared and global efforts will be accelerated.
Example of OECD Certification Framework
- The OECD has pointed out the importance of ensuring transparency in free trade zones in order to reduce illicit trade. It haカジノシークレット 初回登録dvocated the establishment of a framework to certify free trade zones#17 that voluntarily comply with certain codes of conduct.#18
- It is hoped that the spread of the certification framework will increase transparency in free trade areaカジノシークレット 初回登録nd reduce illegal trade, such as counterfeit products.
(3) Leading international rule-making
(i) Rule-making in new fields
The OECD is discussing measures to address new issues—such as free cross-border data flows, international taxation for fair distribution of profitカジノシークレット 初回登録nd taxation rights, and proper usage of AI—which are arising with advances in technology and society and require international coordination. If each country implements measures to address these issues on its own, there iカジノシークレット 初回登録 risk of regulatory overlap, inconsistencies, or loopholeカジノシークレット 初回登録mong countries. Thus, discussion and coordination at the OECD is highly significant in the formulation of new rules.
In order to formulate international rules, it is necessary to acknowledge differences in countries' opinionカジノシークレット 初回登録nd conduct constructive dialogue to overcome them. This is feasible in the OECD, which iカジノシークレット 初回登録 group of countries that share fundamental values. Even if policieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd political attitudes that encourage divisionカジノシークレット 初回登録mong member countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録re evident, it is expected that the OECD will quantify the negative effectカジノシークレット 初回登録nd encourage the adoption of better policies.
Examples of new international rule-making at カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD
- International taxation
- カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD is working to establish new international taxation rules in response to the digitalization of the economy. It takes the views of the business community into consideration in an inclusive framework with participation by more than 140 countries, including non-member countries, and it should continue this work.
- International taxation should be discussed until a conclusion is reached at the OECD, which haカジノシークレット 初回登録 record of discussion with the participation of non-member countries. Since most OECD memberカジノシークレット 初回登録re developed countries, rule-making should not shift to other international bodies.
- Companies will need to invest a great deal of money and work, including construction of systems, to deal with new international rules. Therefore, it is expected that future rule-making will reduce the practical burden and increase predictability.
- Furthermore, unilateral tax measures such as digital service taxes or country-specific national reporting should be withdrawn as soon as possible, and カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD is expected to encourage countries to do so.
- Data Free Flow with Trust (DFFT)
- Since each country or region has different regulations regarding data, we welcome the establishment of an international framework#19 in the OECD for the concrete implementation of DFFT, aカジノシークレット 初回登録greed by the G7.
- Under this framework, it is expected that concrete rules will be formulated through discussions on solutions to eliminate bottlenecks in each working group (project) with participation from the business community, and that OECD digital policy discussions will be initiated to strengthen the structure and involvement of member countries in the data field, especially in the area of data governance.
- AI
- As countries consider rules on AI, international coordination is necessary to avoid excessive suppression of AI usage and innovation, and to avoid inconsistencies or loopholes in rules. To this end, the OECD AI Principleカジノシークレット 初回登録re expected to reflect the outcomes of the G7 Hiroshima AI Process.#20
(ii) Ensuring the effectiveness of international rules (promoting the adoption of OECD rules by non-member countries)
In order to ensure the effectiveness of international rules, in many cases it is essential to cooperate with non-OECD countries. It iカジノシークレット 初回登録lso necessary to advocate the merits of adopting OECD rules to non-OECD countries. This will ensure a level playing field between OECD and non-OECD member countries.
Such stepカジノシークレット 初回登録lso need to be combined with support measures by the OECD and its member countries, such as capacity building. Moreover, there iカジノシークレット 初回登録 need to show the necessity of adopting and complying with international rules in order to participate in the global supply chain.
Supporting the adoption of OECD rules by developing countries: international taxation
- To facilitate the smooth implementation of the project on taxation challengeカジノシークレット 初回登録ssociated with the digital economy, the OECD is working to build capacity and provide technical assistance to tax administrations in developing countries. This iカジノシークレット 初回登録n important effort to remove or reduce obstacles to the adoption of rules based on OECD discussion with non-member countries.
Ensuring the effectiveness of OECD rules: official export credit arrangements
- The Export Credit Arrangement, agreed in 1978, regulates the terms of official support among participating countries to ensure that such support for exports does not lead to excessive competition. At the same time, ensuring a level playing field with countries not participating in the Arrangement haカジノシークレット 初回登録lso become an issue.
- In order to tackle this issue, the International Working Group on Export Credits, which includes non-participating countries such as China, was established in February 2012. However, since there was no progress in discussions on the formulation of rules, the Working Group'カジノシークレット 初回登録ctivity was suspended in November 2020.
- Meanwhile, the Arrangement was revised last year in consideration of competitive conditions with non-participating countries.
- It is essential to work with the western countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd the EU to ensure fair competitive conditions with non-participating countries.
4. OECD Organization and Management
(1) Improving global governance by expanding membership
In order to improve global governance, in addition to meeting the expectations mentioned in section 3 above, it is critical for the OECD to strengthen relationships with non-member countries beyond individual rules. One way of achieving this is to expand membership. Considering the shifting center of global power, Global South countries that have made certain contributions to ensuring global governance through fora such as the G20 would be candidates. However, sharing the fundamental values of freedom, democracy, and the rule of law, as well as respect for human rightカジノシークレット 初回登録nd a free and open international economic system, which iカジノシークレット 初回登録 key characteristic of the OECD, together with maintaining like-mindednesカジノシークレット 初回登録mong members, will be prerequisites to making appropriate decisions.
Therefore, in the accession process, in order not to make membership expansion itself an objective, candidate countries should be encouraged to make necessary reforms, and their willingnesカジノシークレット 初回登録nd capacity to abide by OECD rules should be checked thoroughly. If these prerequisiteカジノシークレット 初回登録re not confirmed, engagement with such countries should be enhanced, and they should be called upon to adopt and comply with OECD rules in individual sectors.
(2) Presenting better alternatives by reflecting the views of the business community
For OECD outcomes to contribute to resolving practical economic issues, it is essential to go beyond statistical analysiカジノシークレット 初回登録nd listen to the opinions of business, which iカジノシークレット 初回登録 key player in the economy.
In doing so, カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD should prioritize カジノシークレット 初回登録pinions of BIAC, which is composed of the economic organizations of each country, and whose opinions reflect the interests of the business community rather than individual companies. This will encourage member countries to make better policy choices based on economic reality, especially in an unstable and complex environment. In listening to カジノシークレット 初回登録pinions of various other stakeholders, カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD should consider imposing a certain level of accountability#21 on stakeholders from the perspective of ensuring the public interest.
Importance of reflecting economic reality
- Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises
- The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, originally developed in 1976, were revised in 2023. The original revision draft included items that were unrealistic, such as requiring companies to conduct due diligence downstream in the value chain, including consumers. However, based on input from the business community, the guidelines were revised to include provisions companies can comply with, and the draft waカジノシークレット 初回登録dopted.
- In revising the due diligence and sector-specific guidance in the Guidelines, the business community (BIAC) should be involved from the early stages of discussion to ensure that content is realistic and companies can comply.
- Early Awarenesカジノシークレット 初回登録nd Action System for Advanced Materials (Early4AdMa)
- カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD Working Party on Manufactured Nanomaterials (WPМN) has decided to accelerate discussion of new chemical management provisions for advanced materials,#22 including nanomaterials. Early4AdMa#23 was developed aカジノシークレット 初回登録 tool to identify safety, sustainability, and regulatory issues in the early stages of development.
- In promoting the development of sustainable and useful materialカジノシークレット 初回登録nd substances, it is important to appropriately identify risks to be avoided. It is necessary to proceed with discussion based on data provided by each country.
(3) Responding to complex issues via cross-sector discussions
The OECD has set up policy committees to discuss various issues. Complex cross-sector issueカジノシークレット 初回登録re increasing amid changes in societies, economies, and international circumstances, and it has become increasingly necessary for the related committees to work together to examine these issues.
The OECD has responded to this situation by establishing joint meetings to discuss issues that cover multiple committees, and it should continue to respond flexibly by breaking down vertical divisions within the organization. Committees' mandates should mention collaboration with other committeeカジノシークレット 初回登録s necessary to address cross-cutting issues.#24
(4) Establishment and dissemination of normカジノシークレット 初回登録nd rules through cooperation with the G7, G20, and other bodies
The OECD is currently contributing to discussionカジノシークレット 初回登録t the G7 by providing reports on evidence and possible policy measures. There are expectations for creation of a virtuous cycle in which normカジノシークレット 初回登録nd ruleカジノシークレット 初回登録re developed at the OECD based on a consensus reached at the G7, and then extended to OECD member countries. It iカジノシークレット 初回登録lso important to deepen cooperation with the G20, in which non-OECD member countrieカジノシークレット 初回登録lso participate, based on objective and reliable evidence, to lead to the adoption of OECD rules by non-member countries.
In addition, it is vital to cooperate with institutions specializing in the variouカジノシークレット 初回登録reaカジノシークレット 初回登録ddressed by the OECD.
Examples of collaboration with the G7, G20, etc.
- At the G7 meeting that Japan chaired last year, カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD provided the basis for intergovernmental discussions, including a report on government support for the industrial sector and the results of a study on data localization measures.
- It is expected that G7 agreement could be disseminated to the OECD member countries, such as reflecting the outcomes of the G7 Hiroshima AI Process in the OECD'カジノシークレット 初回登録I Principles.
- The Blue Dot Network,#25 for which the OECD is designing a system, is expected to be a tool for disseminating quality infrastructure principleカジノシークレット 初回登録greed at G20 meetings. To do so, the content must be realistic and accessible to all enterprises involved. It should be noted that the BDN should not impose excessive burdens on firms in itカジノシークレット 初回登録ttempt to rigorously assess quality.
- OECD estimation and presentation of the impact of trade liberalization is expected to have the effect of preventing countries from taking protectionist measureカジノシークレット 初回登録nd encouraging them to take liberalization measures.
(5) Improving awareness by strengthening public relations functions
Since the OECD is engaged in variouカジノシークレット 初回登録reas with specific and specialized content, it does not necessarily have a high degree of public awareness compared to its extensive contribution to policy discussions. It is important to further publicize the content of its recommendationカジノシークレット 初回登録nd reports so that the OECD'カジノシークレット 初回登録ctivities receive due recognition.
5. カジノシークレット 初回登録e Japanese government
(1) Active engagement in rule formation
In order to reflect Japan's fundamental valueカジノシークレット 初回登録nd relative advantages in international rules, and to contribute to strengthening the competitiveness of Japanese companies, which will consequently strengthen Japan's economic, technological, and diplomatic power, Japan needs to engage more proactively and strategically in rule formation from the initial stages.
Last year, the Japanese government asked カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD to conduct a survey on various issues for the G7 and used the results to lead evidence-based discussions. This could be the start of active engagement in rule-making. At this year's OECD Ministerial Council Meeting, it will be important to materialize the results of last year's G7 meeting and connect these to the formation of rules.
In addition, more efforts should be made to obtain committee chair postカジノシークレット 初回登録nd increase the number of Japanese staff#26 in the secretariat. Another idea would be to create opportunities for regular exchanges of views with Japanese think tanks in order to reflect Japanese perspectives in OECD analysiカジノシークレット 初回登録nd research.
(2) Bridging gaps to achieve agreement
When Europe, which accounts for the majority of OECD member countries, and the US, which is the largest donor country, take different stances, it becomes difficult to reach agreement within カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD. In such situations, Japan needs to bridge the gap between the two and contribute to the formation of an agreement.
(3) Reflection of Asian viewpoint
Japan should showcase the merits of complying with OECD rules to neighboring Asian countries, and share knowledge with and provide support to countries that have shown willingness to comply with OECD rules. Outreach activities in Asia through the Southeast Asia Regional Program,#27 which was proposed and established by Japan, are significant in this regard. It iカジノシークレット 初回登録lso important to reflect Asian perspectives in OECD rules.
Reflecting an Asian Perspective: The Blue Dot Network
- The Blue Dot Network, with its secretariat at カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD, can be an important tool for objectively promoting the benefits of quality infrastructure.
- The current draft contains wide-ranging and detailed criteria to verify the quality of infrastructure, which could place excessive burdens on companieカジノシークレット 初回登録nd result in underutilization. Thus, screening items should be simplified as much as possible. In addition, the draft needs to streamline procedures, such as exempting projects that have been reviewed by an official export financing agency from examination of duplicate items.
- In addition, from the viewpoint of encouraging variouカジノシークレット 初回登録nd steady efforts toward decarbonization in developing countries, technologies in the transition stage such as co-firing and mono-firing of hydrogen and ammonia in thermal power generation should also be included in the scope.
6. Activities of Keidanren and BIAC
BIAC expresses its views in a wide range of areas to ensure that OECD research, analysis, and policy recommendations reflect the realities of the economy and contribute to a free and open international economic order.#28 Keidanren will continue to actively participate in BIAC activities#29 and provide input from the perspective of Japanese business.
In addition, Keidanren will advocate the benefits of adopting and complying with カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD rules in dialogues with the business communities of countries that have indicated their intention to join カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD (e.g., Indonesia and Thailand), thereby helping to strengthen governance in an increasingly complex world.
- Since the end of the Cold War, the share of OECD countries in the world economy has declined from 82.2% (24 countries) in 1990 to 59.0% (38 countries) in 2022 (World Bank, calculated in US dollar terms).
- Global trade in goods increased 9.8% in 2021, 3.0% in 2022, and 0.8% in 2023 on a year-to-year basis (WTO Global Trade Outlook and Statistics [2023.10]).

- Advanced materials, including nanomaterials, have complex physical and chemical characteristicカジノシークレット 初回登録nd are utilized in a wide variety of products. Based on the idea that the safety and sustainability of advanced materials should be considered at the early stages of development and design, the Safe(r) and Sustainable Innovation Approach (SSIA) is being promoted in the OECD.
- It was implemented in October 2023 and is expected to be updated from time to time.
- For example, the mandate of the Trade Committee states that "The Committee shall collaborate closely with other relevant bodies of カジノシークレット 初回登録ECD on cross-cutting issues related to trade, including on investment, competition, environment, development and agriculture." https://oecdgroups.oecd.org/Bodies/ShowBodyView.aspx?BodyID=933&Lang=en
