OECD Economic Surveys: Estonia 2019

Abstract

This Survey is published on the responsibility of the Economic and Development Review Committee of the OECD, which is charged with the examination of the economic situation of member countries.

The draft report was discussed at a meeting of the Economic and Development Review Committee on 12 November 2019, with participation of representatives of the Estonian authorities.

The Secretariat’s draft report was prepared for the Committee by Margit Molnar and Jon Pareliussen under the supervision of Patrick Lenain. Damien Azzopardi provided statistical assistance and Stephanie Henry provided editorial support. The Survey benefitted from contributions by Andrés Fuentes and comments by Christina Von Rueden, Dirk Pilat, Bert Brys, Natia Mosiashvili, Rudiger Ahrend and other OECD staff. Support from the government of Estonia is gratefully acknowledged.

The previous Economic Survey of Estonia was issued in September 2017.
