Policymakers are facing a formidable task in keeping up with the rapid pace of technological change, a general scarcity of relevant data and a high degree of uncertainty over the shape of the future. The challenges in this regard are highly contextual. Countries vary greatly in terms of their readiness to engage in and benefit from the digital economy, with LDCs lagging the furthest behind. Ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital economy therefore requires global efforts in providing adequate support.
