Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) operates with the support of 34 member nations, providing a platform for nations to collaborate toward improving the economic and social well-being of their citizens. OECD nations, who work in partnership to encourage economic development and world trade, represent 80% of global trade and investment. Through the collection and aggregation of country-level data (over five billion data points, to date), OECD deploys its extensive indicator set to model and compare the citizen well-being in nations across the globe. The IRIS catalog uses OECD definitions for several terms related to sustainable business practices and inclusive finance and several IRIS metrics were created with OECD indicators as the foundation.
