Abstract

The global productivity slowdown, characterised by a widespread deceleration in aggregate productivity growth rates, is a prevailing concern for policy makers and academics. In this context, this report summarises evidence on productivity growth and business dynamics, highlighting long-term trends and their drivers, as well as insights specific to the COVID-19 period, with relevant implications for future productivity and innovation. It underscores the role of productivity for employment and wages, and discusses challenges related to the digitalisation of the economy and the green transition. Additionally, it considers how the resurgence of industrial policies necessitates additional analysis to measure and coordinate government action.
