mandatory and private benefit practices,
as well as
statutory regulations,

world.
Offering unparalleled quality and depth of data and
analysis, and covering more than 60
countries, the
2007/2008 edition of WBEG is available in five
regional volumes
providing concise, reliable and easy-to-use
information for the
major economic regions of the world
– Americas, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Buyers also receive
access to WBEG online and
its comparators.
As part of
our continual efforts to meet - and exceed - our
users' needs, we relied
on a global network of senior Mercer experts in
more than 60 countries to
produce this year's WBEG report. These experts peer
