The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development gathers 30 member countries sharing a commitment to democratic government and the market economy. The OECD plays a role in fostering good governance in the public service. It helps governments to ensure the responsiveness of key economic areas with sectoral monitoring.

The OECD provides internationally agreed instruments, decisions and recommendations to promote rules of the game in areas where multilateral agreement is necessary. It is prepared for individual countries to make progress in a globalised economy.
