13 6. DDI: economic impact Data and analytics market (supply side) Global market for data analytics: USD 17 billion by 2015 (+40% CAGR); OECD market for public sector data: USD 97 billion in 2008 (+7% CAGR); DDI impact across the economy (demand side) Firms productivity growth: +5% to +10% Use of public sector data in the OECD: USD 509 billion in 2008 Many social benefits (well-being) are not captured by economic statistics! 13
