The Enhanced APEC Agenda for Structural Reform (EAASR) underscores APEC’s longstanding commitment to structural reforms. It also serves as the Economic Committee’s concrete, medium-term response to delivering on the APEC Putrajaya Vision 2040 and Aotearoa Plan of Action. The objective of this mid-term review report is to discuss progress, share experiences and lessons learned, and provide further guidance for reform actions by APEC member economies. In conducting the mid-term review of EAASR, the PSU has employed a two-pronged process: (1) at the APEC-wide level, through a set of endorsed external indicators and the EAASR Implementation Plan (which includes a short survey to gather member economies’ perceptions of EAASR implementation); and (2) at the individual economy level, using the individual action plans submitted by member economies.
