The OECD Glossary contains a comprehensive set of over 6 700 definitions of key terminology, concepts and commonly used acronyms derived from existing international statistical guidelines and recommendations.
The OECD Glossary of Economics, which is the fruit of the every day work of the OECD’s translators and experts, is designed to be an essentially pragmatic reference tool. This updated and expanded edition of the 1992 Glossaire de l’économie anglais-français contains some 30 000 terms and expressions, covering a wide range of subject areas: general economics, statistics, finance and banking, trade, management, accounting, insurance, manpower and employment, development and tax. The glossary also explores new fields, such as money laundering and financial engineering. It gives brief descriptions of four specialist areas (financial analysis, money laundering, credit derivatives and transfer prices) and the English equivalents of the basic concepts. It will provide a valuable service for anyone required to read and draft in English or French - economists, journalists, translators, interpreters, teachers and students.
