Economics in Tech Policy
Exploring the economic questions that connect APAC’s major technology policy debates
Across the Asia-Pacific region, governments are making highly consequential decisions on AI governance, digital regulation, copyright law, data flows and the infrastructure needed to support the digital economy.
These issues are often debated one at a time. Yet despite their differences, they raise many of the same economic questions around investment, innovation, technology adoption and competitiveness.
Our Economics in Tech Policy series brings together economists from across Oxford Economics to examine these connections, drawing on our research and project experience across the APAC region and beyond. Each article takes a different policy issue and explores its wider economic implications.
Collectively, the series aims to connect discussions that are often considered in isolation and show how an economic perspective can help businesses and policymakers understand the choices and trade-offs involved.
