    Abstract: The Compatible Trade and Production data base (COMTAP) consists of annual statistics on production, imports and exports of manufactured goods. The key feature of this data base is that both the production and trade statistics are classified according to the same nomenclature, namely, the International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC). The conversion of both trade and production statistics to the ISIC is approximate because there is usually no direct correspondence between the ISIC and the classification in which the trade and production data are reported to the OECD. This report describes the contents of COMTAP, some of the analytic uses to which it can be put, and the problems encountered in setting up the COMTAP data base. Finally, some examples are given of how the data base can be used to calculate "market penetration" and "export performance" ratios for 23 OECD countries over the period 1970 to 1985 ...

    Abstract: This paper examines the question of tax reform in OECD countries. First, the reasons for tax reform are reviewed. These include economic efficiency arguments as well as concerns about equity which are often a major consideration. Next, the paper considers the many factors which constrain governments in their effort to reform the tax system (such as inherent conflicts between efficiency and equity, and the non-revenue objectives of taxation), and how those constraints might be reduced. Finally, the paper reviews the extent of tax reform in OECD countries, noting some of the remaining problems ...

    Keywords: Economics
    Abstract: This paper discusses several aspects of the medium-term orientation of OECD countries' economic policies in the 1980s, concentrating on monetary and fiscal instruments. The developments that led to the adoption of such a "medium-term strategy", and the apparent analytical rationale for it, are first described. The paper then examines the way the strategy was actually implemented, attempting to judge how closely policies have in fact followed medium-term objectives, and assesses the results. Some lessons from experience with the strategy are outlined in conclusion ...

This report describes the contents of COMTAP , some of the analytic uses to which it can be put, and the problems encountered in setting up the COMTAP data base. Finally, some examples are given of how the data base can be used to calculate "market penetration ratios" for 13 OECD countries over the period 1970 to 1983. The annexes present some of the COMTAP data in summary form ...

    Keywords: Economics
    Abstract: This paper examines the problems raised by the recent sharp increases in the ratio of public debt to GNP in most OECD Member countries. When interest rates exceed growth rates, this development appears as a symptom of instability in public finances. The paper also analyses the evolution of public debt within the wider framework of the government sector's net worth. One particular aspect of this approach -- the implicit pension liabilities of governments -- is seen to have a significant bearing on the debt outlook in several countries. Finally, the paper assesses the sensitivity of the public debt profile under alternative fiscal policy settings ...

    Abstract: La présente note traite des différences sur échanges, c'est-à-dire de l'écart entre le chiffre d'un flux d'importation et celui qui concerne (apparemment) le même flux considéré comme exportation. Par définition, on posera ici que les différences sur échanges sont égales à (M-X/M) 100, où M et X sont, respectivement, les importations enregistrées dans les statistiques du commerce extérieur d'un pays comme venant d'un partenaire donné et les exportations enregistrées dans les statistiques de ce partenaire comme partant à destination du pays considéré. La présente étude vise à examiner pourquoi des différences existent, à en déterminer l'ampleur et à voir si elles ont varié depuis une dizaine d'années. L'étude s'appuyant sur le fichier de statistiques du commerce extérieur de l'OCDE, se limite aux échanges entre pays de l'OCDE. Par ailleurs, elle ne s'intéresse qu'aux données exprimées en valeur, et jusqu'à présent rien n'a été entrepris pour étudier les écarts entre les notifications ...

    Abstract: La Base de données compatibles sur le commerce et la production (COMTAP) de l'OCDE a été établie par la Banque mondiale, sous la supervision générale du Professeur Jean Waelbroeck de l'Université Libre de Bruxelles. La Division des Statistiques Economiques et des Comptes Nationaux du Département des Affaires Economiques et Statistiques est maintenant responsable de la gestion de cette base de données. Ce document décrit le contenu de la base de données, ainsi que certaines des exploitations analytiques auxquelles elle peut donner lieu. En suite, il examine certains problèmes que posait la constitution de cette base. Il donne enfin des exemples de l'utilisation de COMTAP pour le calcul d'un indicateur déterminé de la "pénétration du marché". Les annexes jointes présentent sous forme résumée certaines des données figurant dans les fichiers COMTAP. Contenu de la base de données La Base de données compatibles sur le commerce et la production (COMTAP) comprend des statistiques annuelles ...
