This report provides a series of indicators on Korea's
policymaking practices and government performance compared to
those of other OECD countries and of the G7 countries.
Based on the Korean government reform objectives, this
publication discusses how to strengthen evidence-based
policymaking in the Korean public administration and, more
generally, how to improve public service delivery and results for
more inclusive growth. Although Korea is currently in an enviable
fiscal situation compared to other OECD and G7 countries, the
growing old-age-dependency ratio will inevitably increase budget
pressures in the coming years. Concrete actions are therefore
needed now to promote greater efficiency and value for money in
public spending and public service delivery.
