It is a unique tripartite partnership of senior individuals from business and industry, government, academic and other intellectual circles in 25 Asia-Pacific Economies. The substantive work of PECC covers trade and investment policy, financial and capital markets, community building activities for sustainable cities, human resource development and digital divide resolution, and outlooks for the Pacific economy and food system and so on.

Pacific Economic Outlook (PEO) is among the PECC activities and engaged in a cross-cutting research field. It has the twin taskforces of PEO/Forecast and PEO/Structure, respectively dealing with short-term and longer-term macro-economic issues in the Pacific. Being the core taskforces of PECC, PEO/Forecast (under the Canadian coordinator) and PEO/Structure (under the Japanese coordinator) actively present their reports to the meetings of PECC, and sometimes to the Ministerial Meetings of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) also.
